Definitions of beauty and art have been turned upside down when trying to describe 20th century and postmodern art. The classical sense of beauty looks toward the replication of nature as its inspiration. The development of Impressionist art and modern art forced the rules of aesthetics to be rethought and revised. Old standards of aesthetics were brought into question with each successive artistic challenge. This article endeavors to explore the meaning of beauty and the aesthetic experience as it relates to defining art.
在试图描述20世纪及后现代艺术时,美与艺术的定义被彻底颠覆了。古典美学意义上的美以模仿自然为灵感源泉。印象派艺术和现代艺术的发展迫使人们重新思考和修正美学规则。每一次接踵而至的艺术挑战都使旧有的美学标准受到质疑。本文力图探究与艺术定义相关的美和审美体验的意义。
