艺术商品论

On Art as a Commodity

本文试图以经济学的方法和理论来研究与探讨艺术现象及艺术规律。艺术品作为商品是社会分工的必然产物,一旦艺术被作为谋生和获取社会财富的手段,它必然要表现出商品的客观形态和发展规律,我们也必然把它当做商品来经营和操作。然而,艺术商品又是用来满足人们精神需求的劳动产品。跟一般商品相比,它又有许多独特的地方:一是艺术商品的形式和内容呈现游离状态,即它的“形”与“核”是分离的;二是艺术的消费过程是一个从物质到精神的转换过程。在把艺术同商品相联系的过程中,同时也要处理好几个关系,只有这样,才能正确把握艺术商品。

Once art works become a means of living and making money, it must possess some properties of commodities. However, unlike common commodities, art has its own characteristic. That is to meet the mental needs of people. The form and contents of art are s eparate. The art consumption is a process from body to mind. We should properly deal with several connections between art and commodity so that we can understand art as a commodity correctly.
