艺术学的经验性学科品格

Nature of Art Studies as a Discipline

艺术活动原本是感性的、个体的、直觉的经验活动,现代学科建制又要求其具备言说的学理性和清晰性。中国艺术学受惠于德国艺术学而建制,在自身发展过程中,在沿用理性主义路径时要留意其自身的限度,更重要的是,在文化自觉的当代语境下,要重拾中国自身传统资源的经验性路径和艺术学科自身的谱系,以此发展能面向当代社会和世界的艺术理论。本文拟以经验为艺术学研究的轴心,将其置于文化自觉的当代语境中,围绕经验作为艺术学的研究对象、经验作为艺术学的研究方法和经验作为艺术学的学科思维这三个维度展开探讨艺术学的经验性品格。

Artistic activities are perceptual,individual and intuitive while artistic studies require academic rationality and clarity.Though rooted in German art studies,Chinese art studies should restore the empirical methodology of traditional Chinese resources and the disciplinary genealogy of art in the contemporary context of cultural confidence.Only choosing this path can the Chinese art studies take its place in modern and international artistic studies in time.This paper discusses the experience in art studies from three perspectives:experience as the research object,methodology and thinking pattern.
