The Distinction And Connection Between Inside And Outside The Wall

The definition of art is a controversial and unresolved issue.Throughout the history of Western art,we find that imitation and three-dimensional perspective have gone through thousands of years,and art pursues an illusory reality.After impressionism,perspective was broken and painting tended to be plane.After dadaism,traditional art forms were completely eliminated,art was no longer restricted by fixed paradigm,materials and forms,and art could be any non-art.Since the 20 th century,art museums,as storage and display of art,have increasingly become a symbol of the spiritual civilization of a country and a region.The museum plays the role of defining the work of art,building a wall with art inside and non-art outside.But the distinction between art and non-art is not easy,and the museum wall is being challenged.First of all,the author summarizes three ways for art museums to define works of art.First,the discipline of art history.If we can trace the history of art from the objects made by artists,it will enter the art gallery in a fair way.Second,the interpretation of art theory.Since modernism,seeing something as a work of art depends on an atmosphere of art theory.Article 3.Grant of the art system.According to becker,art is a product of the art world,and the museum gives something its status on behalf of the art world.Second,there are three problems with the way art museums define art.One is the ideological barriers of conformism,relying entirely on the history of art,art will become stagnant.Second,the aesthetic taste of elitism.Works of art are often owned by the elites,and the elitist taste is regarded as the standard of art.Third,knowledge production and cultural hegemony.After world war ii,western powers used art galleries as weapons in the cultural war.International contemporary art is actually a kind of American art.Finally,in order to overcome the above difficulties,the author suggests that art museums should start from the closed approach,absorb traditional culture and art outside the museum,and pay attention to real life and contemporary context.Nowadays,the boundary of art is dynamic and vague,and art presents a generative nature.Marlowe said that a wallless museum has been opened to us,and it will show us a broader art world.
