构建中国艺术学理论学科体系

Establish the Disciplinary System of Chinese Art Theory

自从艺术学正式升格为门类,下辖五个一级学科之后,如何构建一级学科艺术学理论的学科体系,特别是如何构建具有中国特色的艺术学理论学科体系,便成为摆在我们面前的一个重要课题。对于中国艺术学来讲,就是要从宏观与整体的角度,努力寻找出各门艺术的"相同之处或相通之处",也就是寻找出涵盖各门艺术具有普遍性的共同规律来。正是在这个意义上,我们再来探讨中国艺术学学科体系的建构。中国艺术学本身是一个庞大的体系,中国艺术历史悠久,五千年的中华文明史里艺术始终占有重要的地位,中国艺术是中国文化史的重要组成部分;中国艺术门类众多,除了世界各国通常都有的绘画、雕塑、建筑、音乐、舞蹈等等门类之外,中国艺术还有自己独特的一些艺术种类;中国艺术体系繁杂;中国艺术成就辉煌。所以,中国艺术学学科体系的构建同样是一项巨大的系统工程。同时,中国传统艺术在艺术创作、艺术鉴赏乃至艺术门类等方面,都鲜明地体现出中华民族的审美意识,具有浓郁的民族特色。加强对中国艺术学的研究,不但是完善艺术学学科体系建设,培养艺术学人才的教学和科研方面的迫切需要,也是当前我国各个门类艺术实践的迫切需要。当今世界,在经济全球化与文化多元化的时代背景下,我们的艺术家关键是能否在创作中做到既具有全球视野和时代追求,同时又能深入发掘中国传统文化之精华,在东西方文化交融中,使自己的作品体现出浓郁的民族风格和民族特色,使自己的作品真正具有中国艺术的精神。从这个意义上讲,中国艺术学学科体系建设和基础理论研究,不但具有重要的理论价值,而且也具有紧迫的现实意义。

How to establish the disciplinary system of the first - grade subject of art theory？ How to establish a disciplinary system with Chinese characters？ We should make efforts to find out alikeness and similarities in different art fields. That is to say, to find out the universal law of art. Only in such sense could we begin to discuss the establishment of the disciplinary system of Chinese art theory. Chinese art plays an important role in the whole Chinese cultural history, and art has its own particular state in Chinese civilization. Except for all kinds of art such as painting, sculpture, architecture, music, dance, there still are specific kinds of art form in China. Chinese art system is a comprehensive and complex one. Therefore, it is an enormous and splendid project to establish Chinese art disciplinary system. Meanwhile, classical Chinese art creation, appreciation and art forms all distinctly take on a particular Chinese looking. Strengthening the research upon Chinese art science could perfect the establishment of art discipline. In the context of globalization, it is important for artists to both include global eyeshot and contemporary pursue in their creation and pay much attention to the essence of tradition Chinese culture. Only in such way could they create artworks with a particular Chinese spirit. So, it is not only a theoretical problem but also a practical problem to establish the disciplinary system of art theory.
