Based on writing "technology" and creation,Walter Benjamin's(1892-1940)"theory of art production" has opened up a new field of literature and art sociology of modern technology and social literature and art production.With the rapid development of science and technology,under the demand of the coordinated development of material civilization and spiritual civilization,art production theory has a huge guiding role in the art practice of contemporary society,and its practical significance is highlighted again.Art production theory is not Benjamin's first creation.He has absorbed the important thought of Marx's production theory and developed his own unique theoretical point of view.Benjamin emphasized the decisive influence of technology on art production from the various relations between technology development and art production,so he established his unique theory of art production.Based on the social background of consumerism and industrial culture,in the face of the development of modern art and popular culture,Benjamin's art production theory is endowed with more profound connotation,and also embodies the unique artistic and humanistic value orientation,which is of great guiding significance to the art development and cultural construction of Chinese society.Benjamin always adheres to scientific research methods,and maintains an objective and rigorous research attitude.He starts from the intrinsic nature of the research object and finds the way of world existence by the way of cognitive world.This research method is worth learning and using for reference,and it is of great significance to deepen the understanding of the development of literary sociology.This paper explores the literary and artistic sociological significance of Benjamin's theory of artistic production from four aspects: theoretical traceability,formation and development,critical significance and social practice.First of all,it traces back to the origin of Benjamin's art production theory.Marx's production theory has a great influence on Benjamin's art theory.The establishment of Benjamin's art theory is based on Marx's law of capitalist social production,placing art production in the social production environment,and summarizing the capitalist artproduction theory.At the same time,it integrates Marx's alienation theory into art production,and considers its influence on art production from social and political aspects in combination with the background of the time,so as to prepare for the study of the specific content of Benjamin's art production theory.Secondly,the formation and development of Benjamin's art production theory.On the basis of Benjamin's theory that technology is decisive,from the emergence of mechanical reproduction technology to the continuous development of photography technology to the emergence of new art form--film,by combing a series of technological updates triggered by science and technology,and referring to his famous art theory work "art works in the era of mechanical reproduction" and interpreting it in depth,Benjamin was formed the interpretation of art production theory.In the historical process of traditional,modern and popular culture,we explore the development of art,and summarize the relationship between technological development and art production from the influence of technological factors on different art periods.Thirdly,the critical significance of Benjamin's art production theory.This paper puts Benjamin's art criticism in the theory of Frankfurt school,and summarizes two opposite critical theories of Frankfurt school,positive criticism and negative criticism.The two critical discourses represented by the two critical theories add richness and diversity to the critical theories of Frankfurt school.Through the interpretation of the two kinds of discourse,the comparative analysis of the representatives of different critical theories,and the comparison of the aesthetic significance of the two kinds of criticism,we can see the unique existence of Benjamin in Frankfurt school,and finally show the modernity salvation significance of Benjamin's art critical theory.Finally,the Chinese social and cultural practice of Benjamin's art production.From the consumerism of art production,the decline of culture and the decline of aesthetics,this paper makes critical thinking on the practice of Chinese contemporary art,projects the modern practice into the research and development of literature and art sociology,and unfolds the guidance of art practice from the perspective of literature and art sociology theory.Through Benjamin's theory of art production,this paper puts forward realistic suggestions on thedirection of modern art production,the quality of art production and aesthetic acceptance,and takes measures to lead the direction of art production and cultural construction in China's contemporary society,improve the quality and cultivate aesthetic acceptance,so as to form a healthy form of cultural development in the information age and consumer society with rapid development of science and technology,and to promote spiritual civilization At the same time,it provides a good development space for the research of literature and art sociology and provides scientific and forward-looking guarantee for the direction of discipline construction.Starting from the development of literature and art sociology and the construction of modern culture,this paper probes into the ideological origin and theoretical significance of Benjamin's theory of art production,completes the criticism and redemption of art production in social practice,and provides practical and necessary theoretical guarantee for the healthy development of art production and cultural construction.
