Tema Marijine ljepote u vremenu i djelu Matije Divkovića

Author(s): Marija Pehar / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Matija Divković’s works Christian Study and One-hundred Miracles are analyzed here with reference to the topic of Mary’s beauty, which occurs as an especially striking theme. Before analyzing Divković’s texts, Divković’s historical context and the Marian-theological context are addressed. Thus,the topic of Mary’s beauty is first discussed against a broad background of philosophical and theological thought on beauty, especially in the context of Christian theological aesthetics, which considers beauty primarily as God’s beauty, and the beauty of his love reflected in his creation. The second important context for understanding this topic is that of post-tridentine Mariology and the spread of Marian devotion at this time, in which the theme of Mary’s immaculateness – considered as a precondition for particular closeness to God, and observed from outside as an exceptional mercifully mediated beauty – was emphasised.

The Art of Fake

Author(s): Oana Horhogea / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

It was Plato who defined the meaning and metaphysical value of Beauty in a way which was valid for all types of Arts, emphasizing on the concept of “Mimesis”. This aesthetic principle, developed mainly during ancient times, states that art represents an imitation of the real world. If criminal expertise of hand-writing has as its subject the study of handwriting based on scientific evidence regarding the graphics skills with the aim of identifying the author, can we consider counterfeiting of historical evidence as a form of art? Both in the case of hand-writing and works of art, there occur anatomo-physiological and psychological peculiarities specific to their author, the complex conditioned reflexes, and the dynamic stereotype which define a certain individual. Thus, the author of the fake needs to have the ability and training to accurately render the characteristics of the original.

Aspects of Beauty and Sublime in Humans

Author(s): Simina Cherecheș / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The sublime is what surrounds us when an image gives us a mood with a strong emotional impact, when we see something that brings back memories or some senses, we have the impression that time stands still and that we are above all the things. We see daily things that gain our interest and we would like to sit and linger for a long time watching them. The fact that we are surrounded by beauty and beautiful things makes us more and more strict with ourselves and with our work in order to have control over the things in our lives, for example, to have a physical appearance that makes our life enjoyable and by which we are delighted to have a very good image of ourselves. All the time we live we have the feeling of the sublime, something truly great, something that makes us aware of our lives or the moments in which we live.

Изкуствознанието като философия и наука

Author(s): Galina Dekova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article traces the development of art history as a discipline that operates on the border between the scientific and the subjective attitude to art. Today, with the term “art” we also indicate a field of syncretism and intersections with many levels of presence and realization in society. The theory of art has accumulated a huge amount of source material and the need for systematization is becoming increasingly apparent. The main trends of the early twentieth century as formalism, the history of the spirit, methods such as iconology and iconography have received a new reading at the intersection with critical theory. Thus, the tone in this discipline, born of the German philosophical tradition, is already set mainly by authors from overseas. The situation is defined as post-postmodern and the attention is focused mainly on the crisis of art history as an independent scientific discipline, caused by a reluctance to understand the real contradictions embedded in it.

Estetické hodnocení umění a přírody

Author(s): Barbora Bakošová / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

Estetika první poloviny dvacátého století pokračovala v tradici století devatenáctého a plně se orientovala na oblast umění, z něhož čerpala příklady pro svá teoretická východiska. Zaměřila se tak na estetické prožitky par excellence, jimiž prožitky umění nesporně byly. Umělecké dílo bylo pro estetické hodnocení nejadekvátnějším objektem, protože zde dominovala estetická funkce oproti jiným (ekonomickým, sociálním, ekologickým a dalším). Umění v té době procházelo radikální transformací, odřezávalo se od tradičních forem, s čímž se bylo nutné vypořádat i na poli estetiky. Estetické teorie se spíše redukovaly na uměleckou kritiku a hledaly způsob, jak teoreticky přistupovat k tak různorodým uměleckým projevům. Moderna navíc nesměřovala k nápodobě vnějšího světa, ale k abstrakci a introspekci, u nichž stála příroda jako umělecký objekt přirozeně stranou.

Narativní a ambientní dimenze estetické hodnoty environmentu

Author(s): Kateřina Pařízková / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

„V prosinci roku 1968 jsme mohli poprvé spatřit, jak tohle stabilní a bezpečné místo vypadá. Appolo 8 kroužilo kolem Měsíce a astronauti fotografovali místa, kde by mohly přistát další výpravy. Během čtvrtého obletu se velitel Frank Borman rozhodl stočit loď tak, aby okna směřovala k měsíčnímu obzoru – potřeboval to kvůli upřesnění polohy. Jenže místo toho se před ním rozevřel pohled na vycházející Zemi. ,Bože, tamhle vychází Země,‘ zvolal. Další člen posádky, Bill Anders, popadl fotoaparát a stiskl spoušť. Jeho snímek, možná nejikoničtější fotografie vůbec, byl později pojmenován Východ Země. Je na něm modrobílý oblázek vznášející se na pozadí nedozírného vesmíru, který stoupá nad pustý Měsíc bez známky života. Borman později prohlásil, že to byl ,ten nejnádhernější pohled mého života, který mě vzal za srdce a zaplavil tesknou touhou a nesmírným steskem po domově. Bylo to to jediné v celém vesmíru, co mělo nějakou barvu. Všechno ostatní bylo buď bílé, nebo černé. Jen Země ne.‘ Třetí člen posádky, Jim Lovell, to vyjádřil jednodušeji: Země mu připadala jako ,nádherná oáza‘.“

Estetické hodnocení krajiny v České republice

Author(s): Kateřina Pařízková / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

V následujícím textu se pokusíme zasadit předchozí filosoficko-estetická témata do kontextu praxe. Na tom, jak je mnohými odborníky na ochranu a plánování krajiny v České republice chápán estetický rozměr krajiny, lze vhodně demonstrovat některá environmentálními estetiky kritizovaná témata. Estetický rozměr krajiny je z naprosté většiny spojován s tím, co vnímáme zrakem, tedy s formálními vlastnostmi. Přestože se umění již od čistého formalismu významně posunulo, na poli krajinného designu je estetično s formálními vlastnostmi stále více spojováno.

Estetické preference přírodního prostředí a přírodní vědy

Author(s): Karel Stibral / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

V podobné době, kdy se v anglosaském světě etablovala environmentální estetika, dochází i ke značnému nárůstu zájmu o estetické hodnoty přírodního prostředí či krajiny v rámci přírodních věd. V následující kapitole se proto pokusím o jistý vstup do teorií či konceptů z této oblasti, pochopitelněv rámci daného rozsahu bez nároku na vyčerpávající přehled, půjde spíše o naznačení základních směrů uvažování a cest. Bližší pohled na koncepce z této oblasti může totiž přinést leccos zajímavého pro samotnou estetiku stejně jako pro zájemce o oceňování či vnímání krajiny např. z řad zahradních či krajinných architektů.

[RE]READINGS OF THE PERFECT. MYSTICISM OF JAMES LEE BYARS

Author(s): Juan Agustín Mancebo Roca / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The complex contextualization of the work of James Lee Byars (1932–1997) in contemporary artistic practices was determined by its timelessness in both form and concept. Considered by Kevin Power as one of the key artists of the second half of the twentieth century alongside figures such as Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol, his legacy seems to have declined probably because of the discomfort caused by the approach to his work, since any previous consideration and attempt at cataloging, escapes through the loopholes on which they are based. Byars’ performances and pieces were mostly structured around the cryptic concept of perfection. The artist’s mission, in this case, takes on the roles of a shaman and a magician who questions the illegibility of a world whose materialism seems to have expelled any consideration of the sacred, thus articulating a work that, far from providing answers, raises questions about the ultimate meaning of life. Gold, geometry, time (and its transience), space (re-signified by his cultural heritage), language and the body expressed a proposal in which installations and actions are the instruments he uses primarily to question us about the big questions. Byars in this sense has been considered a mystic, since he places us at the doors of a new perception to make us uncomfortable and provoke us, to transmit us the questions about being in the world.

Zdroje a šíření vybraných komodit keramické produkce vrcholného a pozdního středověku

Author(s): / Language(s): English,Czech

The publication is focused on late medieval pottery products with higher aesthetical effect. The key group is represented by stove tiles, where the unifying elements of relief decoration helped to define series of motifs for stoves with specific iconographic concept, which were found in various locations. The same approach can be also used with small ceramic sculptures, aquamaniles and relief-decorated floor tiles, even though the achieved information value in these cases is much lower. Micropetrographic, XRF and other analyses helped to identify the production centres and the distribution model of these ceramic groups. 3D documentation enabled a detailed comparison of differences between individual reliefs and specific traces of manufacturing procedures. Individual chapters contain active links to the source database of analysed items and to 3D models of selected specimens from reference collections.

Umělecké dílo v masové kultuře

Author(s): Tereza Krementáková / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

Cílem této práce je poukázat na aspekty, které se zdály být problematické či negativně ovlivňovaly umění a jeho tvorbu na pozadí masové kultury podle vybraných autorů. Technologický proces, monopolizační snahy, industrializace společnosti, to jsou okolnosti, které daly umění možnosti nového směrování. Proto se staly terčem kritiky Theodora W. Adorna a Waltera Benjamina. Oba autoři jsou představitelé Kritické teorie, která se formovala v první polovině dvacátého století. Zkoumají podmínky, které se vynořily pro svět umění v moderní a postmoderní společnosti. Tyto nové aspekty považují za možnou příčinu úpadkovosti a představují tak určité nebezpečí.

Considerations of the Beautiful and the Sublime In Art

Author(s): Simina Georgiana Cherecheș / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

By deepening these two themes of the world that surrounds us we find an aesthetics of the environment, of the pleasant environment that we find in beautiful objects and human works created by man over the centuries. By beautiful, we find the idea of pleasantness, of things with an aspect out of relief, of human qualities that we cannot but expose and detail in the most meaningful way. Although the things around us have a certain aesthetic and give us a more pleasant mood, they are transient, like any creation that man has created over time, because they are designed, evolve, and must periodically reinvent themselves in order to preserve this form of beauty. But what truly remains a beautiful thing that always makes us feel good and has remained the same since life on earth began is what we call human qualities, kindness, honesty, love from where we least expect it, and the care we receive from our loved ones. Most famous thinkers expound human values as those that are driven by the idea of beauty. The sublime is what we might describe when we experience a state of awe, when we experience unique moments in our lives, when we glimpse a phenomenon in nature that touches our heartstrings, when we see a rainbow, when we take part in a solar eclipse or a volcano eruption, these things bring man to the point where his heartstrings are touched and he feels life on another level. Although man has succeeded in creating impressive things through painting and sculpture, thus creating a pleasant environment, he does not succeed in exposing artistic experiences as deeply as the natural environment does.
