在“有用性”与“无用性”之间——兼论《艺术作品的本源》与老庄哲学

On “Usefulness”and “Useless”A Brief Account of The Origin of the Work of Art and Laozi and Zhuangzi Philosophy

"有用性"(Dienlichkeit)是海德格尔《艺术作品的本源》中的核心词语,它宣判了器具和艺术作品之间的区别。"有用性"使得器具在使用中最终沦为纯然器具,而艺术作品不会沦为纯然器具,因为艺术作品不在"有用性"及"使用性"的范畴之中,而是保有了"真理"。前赴后继的生命必然在"有用性"中使用器具,将器具商品化,走向市场的链条,实现器具的循环性生存。艺术作品的商业化恰恰是对艺术作品"真理性"价值的遮蔽,艺术作品寻求的是"创造性地进入"作品,获取与"真理"的照面。

＂Usefulness＂ （Dienlichkeit） is a key word in Heidegger＇ s work The Origin of the Work of Art which differentiates instruments and arts. ＂Usefulness＂ makes the instruments become pure things, while arts will not become pure things in using, because art is not in ＂Usefulness＂, it is in truth. Human uses the instruments and makes it as commodity. Instruments live a circle life in the technology and capital, at last, it lost itself. The commodity of arts shields the truth of arts, the arts need creative ideas and face the truth.
