The real roots of art are in the philosophy of Kant and Hegel. This is how we have come to see the modern art that dominates today and the false history that claims it is linked to the masters like Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, etc.. all the way back to Ancient Greece. Despite the fact that the philosophy that dominates in art is in direct opposition to the values of Ancient Greece and the renaissance which followed the philosophy of Aristotle.

Brilliant. I've been belittled by my colleagues all my career for wanting to create beauty and spiritually meaningful paintings, to teach the craft of drawing and painting rather than encouraging my students to "express themselves". The success I had in their eyes was due to the ignorance of people who didn't "understand art". I find it really soothing that there seems to be a movement among younger artists, to get to a new (old) understanding of art. In my eyes the concept of "everything is art and everybody is an artist" has paved the way for our Fast Food society, thus contributed massively to the problems we are facing now. A slow art movement that makes people think long and hard about what they are doing, what they are conveying in their paintings, will contribute to the solutions we need.

The experience of being humiliated by an illustrious Canadian art school when I was in my early teens (far too soon for me), for loving the masters, I failed miserably, and cost my parent dearly. I avoided studying the craft later, though I continued privately to produce for myself, though I new it lacked the discipline in the craft. In my 60s, I took a 2 week course with a fellow from the Angel Academy in Florence (he visited Canada where I was living), and I learned how little I know and how untrained I am and how late I had left this effort. It is not that I can't learn because I'm too old now, but in my late 70s I feel tapped out. Fortunately I was able to learn the craft of playing the piano from a master, and enjoyed a performing career for many years (in restaurants and hotels). Not high art by any means, but a joyous romp through music which touched me deeply, with a broad range of genres

Great information, thanks for the work you put into this.

@fuzzwald

When people ask me what I paint, I say I paint whatever the hell I want. I feel no obligation to follow Kant's or Hegel's rules, or your rules. If you find inspiration from Odd Nerdrum, that's a good thing, I suppose. But there are a lot of portals into this thing we call 'art', and neither one of us is going to agree on the correct one. The Larry Shiner book that you cite looks interesting, but I would also mention Jean Gebser's 'The Ever-Present Origin', a comprehensive history of human consciousness, and what the art of a given epoch can reveal about the state of consciousness of the time. If you have no interest in that type of discussion, then you might want to temper your judgement of so-called modern art.

Thank you for summarizing so much valuable information into one video.

Well said👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@lavamatstudios

You've never read Kant and are projecting symptoms of postmodernity onto him. Genius, to Kant, was very different from unrefined natural talent. Genius has to be carefully regulated by taste before it can achieve anything worthwhile.

It is clear that it is impossible to cover all the details in a 10 minute video, even so I do not consider that the omissions are acceptable. First of all, the comparison of Kant with Aristotle is not pertinent, Aristotle's Poetic is above all a study and description of the components that tragedy has and that make it so special, in a way it is a kind of manual. On the other hand, the Critique of Judgement of Immanuel Kant is above all an investigation into our abilities to make aesthetic judgments, and how these are related to our abilities to understand the world and create moral concepts, of those things that Kant dedicates himself to in two other books and the Critique of the Judgement has to be seen in relation to the theory that it explains in them, which we can criticize, judge incompletely or directly false, what we cannot do is reduce it in the way you are doing it and say that kant is "the father of art". In the Critique of Judgement Kant never tries to give rules or precepts of how the works should be done, since he is not writing a manual. even when he makes a division of the arts he declares that it is only provisional and that anyone can correct it (since that is not his job).

This was excellent. Thanks for putting this together.

An excellent video! Thank you very much! Can you please tell me the name of the Norwegian painter that you mentioned at the end of the video? Keep up the good work!

Looking forward to a discussion of how pop surrealism and the popular return of figure painting fit into this!

It would be great if it was translated into Spanish or another language to reach more people, thanks for sharing your thoughts, very valuable!

William Graf’s video on Bouguereau talks on points about how French art critics and auction houses helped remove classical painters from the competition. I really enjoy any info I can find about not only how abstract art came about (I don’t really care about that much), but also how classical sculpture, painting and drawing became excommunicated and made irrelevant. How do those major mediums of the millennia become irrelevant in a matter of a century?
