enjoyable way.
9. Definition of Art
• Art is the formal expression of a considered human
experience.
• Elements of art:

• Art uses experience as the subject matter (substance) which
is then given an expression through the skillful composition of
the media (form) by the artist
10. Definition of Art

fitted to the nature of the materials as to give the impression
of a spontaneous and perfect harmony between the content
and the expression, between the subject matter and the
form.

25. On His Blindness by John Milton (1674)
When I consider how my light is spent
Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide,
And that one talent which is death to hide,
Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker, and present
My true account, lest he returning chide;
"Doth God exact day-labor, light denied?"
I fondly ask; but Patience to prevent
That murmur, soon replies, "God doth not need
Either man's work or his own gifts; who best (d)
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state
Is Kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed
And post o'er land and ocean without rest;
They also serve who only stand and wait."
27. Art as Imitation
• Art is the realization in external form of a true idea, and is
traced back to that natural love of imitation which
characterizes humans, and to the pleasure which we feel in
recognizing likenesses.
• Art however is not limited to mere copying. It idealizes
nature and completes its deficiencies: it seeks to grasp the
universal type in the individual phenomenon.
28. "His young heart is thus extinguished. The blood in
his veins grows cold. And all strength has gone.
Faith has been extolled by his fall into the arms of
death. Amen.“
The Kiss of Death-at the Poblenou Cemetery, in Barcelona
Artist Thought to be Jaume Barba, or Joan Fontbernat-1930
The sculpture is found above the grave of the textile manufacturer Josep
Llaudet Soler.
30. Art as Imitation
Plato
• Art is imitation, and that’s bad.
• Problems with imitation:
– Epistemological: An imitation is at three removes from the reality or
truth of something
– Theological: Poets and other artists represent the gods in
inappropriate ways.
– Moral and Psychological: A good imitation can undermine the
stability of even the best humans by making us feel sad, depressed,
and sorrowful about life itself.
31. Art as Imitation
Aristotle
• Art is imitation, and that’s all right, even good.
• Imitation is natural to humans from childhood.
• Imitation is how children learn, and we all learn from
imitations.
• Tragedy can be a form of education that provides moral
insight and fosters emotional growth.
32. Art as Imitation
Aristotle
• Tragedy is the imitation (mimesis) of certain kinds of people
and actions.
• Good tragedies must have certain sorts of people and plots.
(Good people experience a reversal of fortune due to some
failing or hamartia.)
• A successful tragedy produces a katharsis in the audience.
• Katharsis = purification through pity and fear.
33. Art as Imitation
• Aristotle’s teachings regarding imitation in art have been
widely misunderstood. Yet his principles are true and may be
accepted and employed in art
a) “Art aims at imitating nature.”
b) “Imitation is natural to man.”
c) “It is natural for man to delight in works of imitation.”
34. Art as Imitation
• Imitation for Aristotle does not mean copying directly from
the book of nature but interpreting nature in sensible media
through ideas and feelings.
• Insert “Wildest Dreams”
35. Art as Imitation
“Imitation in fine art involves both a progression from the thing
imitated as well as a progression from the artist who is
producing likeness (and not a copy) of the imitated.”
-J. A. Osterle
47. Purpose of the Arts
