● Definition of art as production subject to rules (5th century BC to 15th century)
● The Renaissance as a moment of transformation of the concept of art in the West
● Definition of art as production of beauty (17th century onwards)
● Definition of Techné
● Forms of production during the Middle Ages. Liberal arts and vulgar arts
● Changes in the forms of artistic production since the Renaissance
● Distinctive features of artistic production (Produce beauty, Reproduce reality, Create
forms, Expression, Aesthetic experience and Shock)
● Need for an open definition of the term in the modern world
5000 BC → 15th century | 16th century → 18th century
Art for Tatarkiewicz is subject to rules and the production of beauty
First, art was something subject to rules, then between the years 1500-1750 they were
transitional, to finally reach the concept of beauty
STAGES OF ART
1. ART AS PRODUCTION SUBJECT TO RULES
destreza para construir un objeto
TECHN supone un saber operativo la maestría
É supone la existencia de reglas
es racional
ANTIQUITY
The Greeks excluded that which exceeded the rational, nor did they take into account
function of an object, but its beauty.
What was going on with this? when the Romans appropriated the concept and made it
more complex when translated into Latin, a lot of things begin to emerge that share
those rules being considered art, such as leading an army or build walls.
MIDDLE AGES - religion
,follow the rules of thetechnicalbut modified
art is understood as a craft(work areas, transmission of knowledge, not leaves room for
innovation, tradition)
arts division
→ liberal arts: freed from physical effort, they are mental.is arts had a
higher social position, generating more income.
→ vulgar arts: physical effort. considered vulgar.
The university appears where the liberal arts are learned and the trade schools where the
vulgar arts are taught.
RENAISSANCE XV → XVI (in italy)
Profano : no religioso
During this time, the conclusion is reached that there
are gaps and errors in the concept of “beauty.” Perspectiva: lo que se
ve del mundo
goodness = beautiful →: antiquity
good = religion → middle age Sfumatto: esfumado,
nature = beauty → rebirth leonardo da vinci
emergence of patrons (rich non-religious merchants) who traded new things such as easel
painting (gioconda; mona lisa) in commodity form.
Social problems arise → artists (traditional architects) begin to join
the liberal arts with the objective (painting, perspective) to rise in
class
The rules of antiquity continue to govern, art is now of rational perfection.
ART AND SCIENCE | 17TH CENTURY → 18TH CENTURY
The concept of “fine arts” emerged, made up of: architecture, poetry, eloquence, comedy,
painting, sculpture and music.
,Beauty is the only thing that relates the arts to each other.
These arts are separated from craftsmen and sciences.
in halves In the 18th century the form of production (industry) changed, people began to ask
about new forms.
another subdivision is created, on the one hand there is artpure(aesthetic enjoyment) and on
the other is artutilitarian(enjoyment and usefulness).
in it 19th century beauty was based on economy and utility.
ART AS PRODUCTION OF BEAUTY
Art is a conscious human attitude that is differentiated from others by these features
1. produces beauty
2. represents/reproduces reality
3. the creation of forming
4. The expression
5. produces the aesthetic experience
6. produces a crash
If something meets 1 of these traits, it was already considered art.
MATERIALITY OF ART
multiple ratings
- type of material
- working technique
- type of structure of the means of production
- uses/purposes of production
more traditional forms of classifications
, more traditional materialities, easier to get into art, materials integrated into art.
the artist DO NOT invent materials, use the materials, the important thing is theUSE of these.
Mastery over the material, the skill.
What does the artist modify in theUSE of the materials?
first The LOOK of the material is identified, then its practical qualities and usefulness.
FORM
- external appearance of the object (differentiate it, separate it from the context)
- the utility, function of the object
example → knife: wood, plastic, metal, etc.
In works it is the external appearance of the object and gives us aesthetic enjoyment (what
makes us think, reflect in terms of beauty)
“How the artist works with his mastery of the material to create his work of art”
PLASTICIDAD
SE PERFECCIONA
sinergia LA MAESTRÍA EN
EL USADO
RESISTENCIA
the artist It is determined which materiality adapts to be used with its mastery and thus
make a work of art and that it persists over time due to its resistance.
materiality → mastery → final product | work of art → it is art depending
on the context in which it is viewed
collaboration → between the artist and his subject before and after the
new beauty industry
