人类学与艺术研究

Anthropology and Art Studies

人类学与原始艺术的缘分是天然的,这由学科性质所决定。然而,由于不同的历史时段和不同的文明背景,决定了"艺术"无论在"名"或"类"上都差异甚殊;而人类学对艺术的研究是在"原始主义"的语境中切入,而"原始"从一开始就面临着由欧洲中心的"话语"所制定的无法开解的"结",这也促使人类学家进行各种反思性的实验。在今天可能出现最大的误区就是"艺术"与"技术"的分离与区隔,然而,在人类学家眼里,二者是一体的。

The mutual relationship between anthropology and primitive art is doomed by the nature of the subject itself; however, the ＂names＂ and ＂types＂ of ＂art＂ varied from different stages of history and civilization. Anthropological research on art starts form ＂primitivism＂, but ＂primitive＂ is designated from the beginning to be the Europocentrism discourse, which arouses anthropologists to do various reflective attempts. The most misunderstanding today are likely to be the separation and division between ＂art＂ and ＂technology＂. However, they are seen as a whole from the anthropologists＇ perspective.
