Abstract

Rethinking Art Definition in Aesthetic Field. In the aesthetic definition of art, an object is an art, and only if it is produced with the intention that it possessed a capacity of affording aesthetic experience. Aesthetic experience refers to some mental states that a spectator brings to or undergoes in responding to artworks. Two major accounts of aesthetic experience are the affect-oriented accounts. The affect-oriented accounts are marked by disinterestedness, empathy, and contemplation. The content-oriented accounts can be sorted under three broad headings: unity, diversity, and intensity. If the aesthetics definition of art can be examined for all artworks, the definition is correct; otherwise, if the aesthetics definition of art cannot be examined for all artwork, the definition is incorrect. Keywords: aesthetic experience; art definition

Abstract

Criticism toward Meyer’s Psychological Approach in Music Analysis. This paper discusses a psychological approach to music analysis introduced by Leonard Meyer that has been criticized by Nicolas Cook (1987). Meyer’s rhythmical and linear analysis which focused on the foreground expectation is less practical in observing large-scale musical structure. In terms of its benefit to advancing musical performance interpretation, the strength and weakness of the approach have been compared to the Shenkerian method which gives more attention to the harmonic reduction that focused on the harmonic background. Although the critic concentrates on technical analysis only, Meyer’s analysis would be valuable to the Shenkerian side if they also take into account his concept of musical style which is mostly regarded as the area of aesthetic rather than technical analysis.  Keywords: Critic, psychological of music, music analysis

Abstract

Harmony in Frightening Natural Phenomenon. The main creation source is the aesthetic impressions of clouds and waves which implicitly express frightening, fearful, and scary passion. The objects of the creations are expressed in painting arts which tend to be expressionistic and abstract in style. The supporting sources of the creations are some paintings of Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning, Joan Mitchell, Anselm Kiefer, Piet Mondrian, and Ibrahim. The originality is emphasized in individual emotional expression. The methods of the creations begin with the exploration of ideas, improvisations, and creations which become one activity. The transformation of ideas into art products creates a subject matter which contains biomorphic forms from expressive brushing that is based on intuition and spontaneousness. The differences in the width of the brush, the stress of brushing, the level of painting thickness, and the color have become the supporting techniques. The results of the creation are the painting art products containing line configurations, organic forms, and coloring with the wild, free, uncontrolled, and ‘mleber’ effects. Keywords: Expressionistic abstract, art harmony, painting.

Abstract

Postmodernism: A Reconstruction and Criticism of Art. There is no truth that is admitted to be absolute truth or forever truth because everything that correlates to a human being is dynamic. ‘Freedom in art creation’ is needed to guarantee the maximum quality of art making process. When art creation is subject to the power of value or its ethical criteria, it is ‘a veiled oppression process’. In such practices, art is not created for the art itself. What happens there is humanizing the art, moralizing the art, and controlling the art. The characteristic of art is its capacity to free itself from substantive matters. In contemplation, the soul leaves the physical materials and becomes one in the idea of form so that the contemplator experiences exquisiteness or unexquisiteness. This experience is then expressed as a work of art. It is important to be comprehended that each element and each entity may function as an active component in completing human existence in the realm of artistic activities. Keywords: Art critics, human existence, art deconstruction.
