An Argumentation On Art Culture-About The Position Of Art In The Human Culture Value System

Within the culture value system, it is the spirit culture that explains a nation's world view, its judgments about life and its basic attitude toward this world. It is the spirit culture that forms a nation's character. The spirit culture is the core value in the human culture value system.More and more huamanity scholars tend to regard culture as a value system. In the culture value system economy culture, philosophy culture, religion culture and science culture have different values and meanings due to their being able to meet with the different classical needs of the humankind. Since it meets with the spiritual need of the humankind, art culture, as same as the philosophy culture and religion culture, belongs to the most important culture class in the human culture value system——the class of transcedental culture value. As the carrier of human emotions(live sensibility,entity of the combination of emotion and meaning), art is not the manner or means in recogniziag the ideas. In the perspective of occurrence studies, art happened before religion or philosophy. Art emotion generates truth——the ideas or categories of religion or philosophy. If we regard the art culture as one pole in the "conversational co-existence" carried out by the human emotions and human rationality, then it transcends the religion and philosophy cultures or other social function culturs of different cultural patterns in different historical or spatial backgrounds. As a self-realized entity, art culture possesses eternal value.As a special value object in the human culture value system, art culture is influenced by the whole culture pattern and its ideas, is influenced by the other culture forms, but anyway art culture can perform itself because art culture owns its quality of independent existence and quality of self-realization and it has transcended special culture patterns and culture bakground.There are some "art phenomena", sometimes the art spirit enstranges itself from the main social ideology, sometimes the art spirit latently continues or revives within a specific civilization, sometimes art spirit latently continues or revives after a specific civilization died out, these phenomena is the concrete presentations of art culture's independent existence and transcental quality of self-realization.Furthermore, as a independent, self-certified and transcendental spirit culture, the art culture transcends different cultures through the presentation of human nature and thus facilitates the humankinds to understand each other sympathetically and afterward make proper reflections about their own culture. On this base they will make efforts to construct a new human civilization. In the age of globalization art culture has communication functions, as a cultural bridge it links together the different partners in the present-day cultural conversations among various nations.
