设计批评主体及其在批评中需要理清的几种关系

Several principal need to dealt with appropriately between the subjects of design criticism and in criticism

在中国当代设计研究中,设计批评主体既可以是一般的个人,也可以是政府、主管机构及其代言人,还可以是看不见的市场,但在学术研究层面,批评的主体应该是专家队伍中具有独立意识的批评家。面对着社会经济的转型,人们的生活方式正发生着急剧的变化,设计批评要想公正、有效地开展,就必须理清四种主要关系:批评家与设计作品、设计师的关系;设计、设计作品与生活的关系;设计批评与设计史、设计基本理论的关系;古今中外的关系。

During the research of Chinese contemporary design,the subjects of criticism could be a common individual,a government,an administration and its representatives,or an invisible market;while on the academic level,the subjects of criticism should be critics among the experts with independent minds.Meanwhile,there are several principal relationships in design criticism to be dealt with appropriately,such as those between critics,works and designers,between design practices,productions and human life,and between design criticism,design history and elementary theories,either in the past or present-day,domestic or overseas.
