Body has been one of the "New Land"of contemporary philosophy, sociology, aesthetics and art. One of the subjects concerned about corporeity is skin and corporeity sense, corporeity experience going with the sense of skin. Corporeity experience is an age-old topic. And with the retreat of Gods, the significance of corporeity in contemporary life is disclosed , which attracts more and more people. At the same time, the meaning for real-life especially the aesthetic connotation of corporeity experience has already been revealed. So my article try to discuss aesthetic consciousness especially the deep meaning of contemporary aesthetic consciousness on the basis of the corporeity experience going with the sense of skin and the connection of corporeity experience, vision and consciousness. The skin experience has two sides of meaning. On the one hand, it implys the immediate skin apperceive. On the other hand, it includes the corporeity experience which aroused by vision and thinking that is deeply influenced by the prior connetion between skin sense and visual sense and visualization. According to this, my study will aim at the corporeity experience going with skin sense which also can be called general sense and the perception experience of corporeity experience which exists in the vision and thinking. And I also plan to consider the relation of beauty and art from the point where corporeity experience encounters visual experience. First of all, I want to show that corporeity experience has abundance of aesthetic creativity. Corporeity experience appears earliest in all kinds of perception experiences and it's also the origin of human creativity. Human beings have been creating many things according directly or indirectly to corporeity experience. The direct creating is concerned with the aspects touched corporeity experience directly especially our manufacture creativity, viz. tools clothing buildings and so on. And it also contains a certain feelings factors. The indirect creating is concerned with the aspects touched corporeity experience indirectly which be showed in skin sense parables, the space and the form of these parables too. Human beings extend skin sense in virtue of the visualized skin sense and the prior connetion between skin sense and visual sense. And the measure of this extension is skin parables which mean projecting skin sense of subject into its object by meas of analogy, on the basis of the practice of skin sense, and recurring to the prior connetion between skin sense and visual sense. And it also can be expressed as some perception activities which can be a analogy of skin sense can be aroused by the objects. I think that skin parables are full of aesthetic meaning. Hussel's intentionality can be used to clarify skin parables. Man projects the real ego to others which makes ego extends to the whole space, as I call it the high-up of skin sense, which is recurring to the extension of intentionality and skin parables. The difference between the high-up and other ordinary animals is that the high-up is the result of reflection of human beings. And the high-up intentionally conjecture other natural objects with its own skin sense and corporeity experience. By doing this, the high-up and the natural objects blend into each other. This kind of blend is on the basis of modern experimental psychology and scientific demonstration. And it is different from the traditional one which is basis on our illusion of"unity of heaven and human". At the same time, this extension of the subject of skin sense make us feel enjoyment of roaming unlimited space. Furthermore, the blend integrates into this kind of enjoyment can be used to explain our traditional artistic conception. The high-up filled the space is one of the bases of artistic conception development. And according to this we find that our traditional highest aesthetic category can be proved by modern experimental psychology. The space extension of skin sense can be divided into two kinds. One is about nature and concerned with the extension of natural space, from which the high-up can be emerged. And the other is the extension of interpersonal space which is more complicated than the fisrt kind. We can divide the extension of interpersonal space into several species according to the distance of skin sense and the intimacy degree. For example, the sexual relationship of couples, the relationship of relatives and friends and the ordinary relationship of society And skin sense is the important measure to weigh the interpersonal relationship. Moreoverform the point of skin sense to review the space extention of the ordinary social relationship especially the relationship of man and woman which can be called Visualization of skin experience. However I refer it to the ordinary relationship and feelings of man and woman. And it can be explained to be a desire that human beings want to touch other and especially the manner which visualized sexual desires. By way of this, people express and communicate their love to pursue enjoyment and satisfaction. So Visualization of skin experience is one of representation modes of human's instinct. Visualization of skin experience has some characteristics which can be detailed as the freedom feelings of space, advancing oneself by means of aesthetic interest which exlude simple sexual desire, initiative of subjects without the struggle of reflection and so on. Visualization of skin experience used to in the suppressant condition in the our civilization history, however, in our modern society it rise on the face from our subconsciousness and shape a new moral and aesthetic ideal. Visualization of skin experience clear up the solitude and instrumentalized consciousness by means of making conciousness unconscious thoughtless and automatic. Many problems such as looking upon conciousness as manufacture instrument and a kind of existence, the pressure of making a living , the alienation and stress of conciousness directly resulted from our more and more complicated society. Therefore, human beings want to cast off the alienation and yearn towards simple life, brief thought even thoughtlessness. People can communicate with each other widely and satisfied their eagerness for love by way of Visualization of skin experience which has a potential avoiding our everyday mode of sign and symbol. Furthermore this kind of potential is the important contacting manner for people after the retreat of Gods and is also one kinds of instinct which make people be together and communicate with each other. And describing this potential in art is a eternal original theme of our art. From the point of corporeity experience, human usually look for the light-hearted light-footed and even afloat enjoyment, which will be beneficial to human's alleviating the inside and outside pressure and push them pursuing happiness and freedom. However,in the circle of heaviness, lightness and numbness, there is a tendency to gaining more lightness, which will make human became more comfortable but more weaker at the same...
