The introduction of Practice Ontology Aesthetics occurred in the course of introspection of Practice Aesthetics in modem China, in which the existence dimension in Marxist concept of practice was of great significance to breaking the theoretical limitation of present Practice Aesthetics. Therefore, in terms of the distinctive context of Chinese contemporary aesthetics, the introduction of Practice Ontology Aesthetics from the theoretical perspective of Marxist existentialism offers a possible way to break the current aesthetics and represents a multiple academic pursuit of Marxist, Chinese and modem aesthetics.展开更多

The reflections and criticism on "capital modernity" by Marx, Weber and Simmel all directly pointed to the issues of people's value and the settlement of their spirit in the Age of Capital. Meanwhile, the salvation of the "aesthetic modernity" makes up the proper meaning of the solution in many thinkers' mind to the predicament of the age. In this sense, the reflections on the Zeitgeist in the Age of Capital is certainly included in the pursuit of aesthetic freedom in this age.展开更多

The contemporary transformation of aesthetic/art institution is triggered by the multiple contradictions and complications among aesthetic/art and institution. One critical way to enable contemporary aesthetics to exceed traditional paradigm of aesthetics and art criticism is to rethink the institutional dimension of the aesthetic and art. On the basis of ethnographic exploration of contemporary social situation, contemporary mechanism of art circle and all kinds of critical consciousnesses, the criticism of aesthetic institution has motivated multiple dimensions of contemporary aesthetic criticism. According to the contemporary circumstances, the criticism dimension of contemporary aesthetics mainly focuses on the following several themes: the aestheticization of everyday life; the deconstruction and reconstruction of the boundary of beauty; art by metamorphosis: the formulation mode of art; criticism of aesthetic capitalism: distinction and cross boundary; political potential of the art of volneralble groups: the power of aesthetic resistance; aesthetic institution criticism and liberal government. On the basis of the above, the ultimate respect to "beauty" by contemporary aesthetics is to start two dimensions, i.e., poetics and politics of contemporary aesthetics eventually by clarifying the relationship between the aesthetic and art and politics/power, and practicing some transcendence by taking the aesthetic as one special institutional form.展开更多

文摘More attentions have been paid to the relationship between institution and aesthetics/art, as the core issue of contemporary aesthetics in the background of linguistic turn and anthropological turn of contemporary aesthetics. The contemporary transformation of aesthetic/art institution is triggered by the multiple contradictions and complications among aesthetic/art and institution. One critical way to enable contemporary aesthetics to exceed traditional paradigm of aesthetics and art criticism is to rethink the institutional dimension of the aesthetic and art. On the basis of ethnographic exploration of contemporary social situation, contemporary mechanism of art circle and all kinds of critical consciousnesses, the criticism of aesthetic institution has motivated multiple dimensions of contemporary aesthetic criticism.
