Study On Art Interpretation Of Arthur Danto

The twentieth century was a special period in the development history of art practice and art theory.In terms of art practice,with the development of productive forces,the methods of art practice have become diversified.Many things that were not regarded as works of art in the past historical period have entered the elegant hall of art in the 20th century.For example,Duchamp ’s ready-made art,and Andy Warhol’s pop art.These artistic practices did not seem to meet the artistic cognition before,but in the twentieth century they were accepted as works of art by the art world.Therefore,in terms of art theory,many theories trying to explain the development of art practice at this stage have emerged,and Danto ’s art interpretation is one of them.Based on the artistic practice of the twentieth century,this article compares Danto ’s artistic philosophy with that of Hegel,George Dickey,and other philosophers,and concludes that Danto’s artistic philosophy Art interpretations that value‘explaining the environment’ beyond art.The introduction part is to define the concept of ’art interpretation’ on the basis of synthesizing the existing literature,and review the existing research results of Danto ’s artistic philosophy.The main part of the thesis includes four chapters.The first chapter is to define Danto ’s artistic essence view.This chapter starts from discussing the definition of traditional essentialist art and the cognition of non-essential art.It points out-that traditional art imitation theory and art realism cannot explain these art practices.At the same time,it points out that the cognition of non-essential art Limitations lead to Danto ’s attempt to understand art from the non-explicit essential level.The second chapter analyzes Danto’s theory from the perspective of art interpretation itself.First of all,identify the five basic elements in the process of art interpretation,then compare Danto’s art interpretation with George Dickey’s theory of art system,and clarify the difference between art interpretation and art system theory-art system theory only describes In the art world,this process of giving a thing the status of a work of art,and art explanations value how this process of giving happens.Finally,make an evaluation of art interpretation.The third chapter studies the consequences of artistic interpretation-the end of art.This chapter points out three different meanings of the end of art,and compares the end of art brought by Danto’s artistic interpretation with the final conclusion of art by Hegel,and concludes that the final conclusion of art by Danto is not the end of art.The final conclusion of Danto’s art is actually an emancipating view of art.The end of art brings more diversified vitality to the creative practice of art.The fourth chapter discusses the practice of art criticism and creation under the guidance of art interpretation theory.Under the concept of Danto’s art interpretation,art will enter the era of pluralism,therefore,the evaluation criteria of art will be an important issue.This chapter focuses on the issue of art evaluation standards in the era of art pluralism,pointing out that the style and type of art will no longer be inferior.In art criticism,the emphasis on interpretation will exceed the emphasis on beauty.The conclusion part summarizes Danto’s art explanation that for understanding the meaning of contemporary art,the creative method of art will enter a stage of diversification,the form of art will change with each passing day,and the evaluation standards of art will also be more diverse.
