Sustainability of Community Art in Hong Kong,China:The Case of Woofer Ten Through Actor-Network Theory

Community art explores alternative social participation and sustainable community life in urban regeneration.There is a need to design an assessment model for the sustainability of community art from a comprehensive and long-term perspective.This report introduces Actor-Network Theory(ANT)as an analytical framework to make a case study of the sustainability of Woofer Ten.The SNA(Social Context-Neighborhood-Actors)model comprehensively reveals the social context,neighborhood,and actors cluster in the network and summarizes the impact of actors and their interactions in the community arts network on sustainability.This report reveals the interactions between urban regeneration,place-making and community arts and their ongoing impact on broader social well-being.Renewed attention to these processes will contribute to the right to the city,citizenship,and activism in the context of Hong Kong’s community culture.

Theory of Flexural Shear, Bending and Torsion for a Thin-Walled Beam of Open Section

Aspects of the general Vlasov theory are examined separately as applied to a thin-walled channel section cantilever beam under free-end end loading. In particular, the flexural bending and shear that arise under transverse shear and axial torsional loading are each considered theoretically. These analyses involve the location of the shear centre at which transverse shear forces when applied do not produce torsion. This centre, when taken to be coincident with the centre of twist implies an equivalent reciprocal behaviour. That is, an axial torsion applied concentric with the shear centre will twist but not bend the beam. The respective bending and shear stress conversions are derived for each action applied to three aluminium alloy extruded channel sections mounted as cantilevers with a horizontal principal axis of symmetry. Bending and shear are considered more generally for other thin-walled sections when the transverse loading axes at the shear centre are not parallel to the section = s centroidal axes of principal second moments of area. The fixing at one end of the cantilever modifies the St Venant free angular twist and the free warping displacement. It is shown from the Wagner-Kappus torsion theory how the end constrained warping generates an axial stress distribution that varies with the length and across the cross-section for an axial torsion applied to the shear centre. It should be mentioned here for wider applications and validation of the Vlasov theory that attendant papers are to consider in detail bending and torsional loadings applied to other axes through each of the centroid and the web centre. Therein, both bending and twisting arise from transverse shear and axial torsion applied to each position being displaced from the shear centre. Here, the influence of the axis position upon the net axial and shear stress distributions is to be established. That is, the net axial stress from axial torsional loading is identified with the sum of axial stress due to bending and axial stress arising from constrained warping displacements at the fixing. The net shear stress distribution overlays the distributions from axial torsion and that from flexural shear under transverse loading. Both arise when transverse forces are displaced from the shear centre.

A Tentative Study on Creation Theory of E.H.Gombrich＇s Art Theory

There are two popular aesthetic trends in Europe in the 17th and the 18th centuries. The first one is continental rationalism which holds that people＇ s knowledge comes from inborn rationality. The other one is British empiricism.

An Interpretation of Danto’s the End-of-Art Thesis from the Perspective of Gadamerian Hermeneutics

Ontology of art,philosophy of art history,and aesthetics make up Danto’s integrated philosophy of art.The end-of-art thesis is the essence of Danto’s philosophy of art history.As an analytical philosopher,Danto’s philosophy resembles Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics in the viewpoints concerning art and history in some ways but differs in others.Danto’s concepts of history show different tendencies in analytical philosophy of history and philosophy of art history.On the one hand,his philosophy of history conforms to Gadamer’s history of effect for the denial of the objectivity and certainty of historical truth.On the other hand,his philosophy of art history fundamentally differs from Gadamer’s relativism by asserting“the end of art”therefore generating a Hegelian law in art history.By using the strategy of“historical narrative”in his philosophy of art history,which is also in accordance with Gadamerian tradition,Danto aims to reconcile his self-contradictory historical views and to justify his philosophical position both as an“essentialist”and a“historicist”.

Research on the Problem of Art Production Theory Since the New Period

The issue of art production is an important topic discussed in China’s academia. The article first discusses thetheoretical issues of early art production in China, mainly taking Mr. Dong Xuewen’s views as an example. Second,scholars have their own views on the discussion of the unbalanced development of art production and materialproduction in the 1970s and 1980s. Third, this article uses the art production theory to construct the contemporaryliterary art form, and raises the art production theory to the essentialism to discuss the art production theory and thereflection theory. Fourth, the relationship between art production and art consumption is in large-scalecomprehensive systematic research.

The Relation between Theory and Practice in Muslim Sages＇ Thoughts in the Third and Fourth Hijra Centuries and Its Effects on Concept of Craft （Sana＇at） and Art in Islamic Civilization

Farabi defines ＂Ilm al-Hiyal＂ （mechanic） in Ihsa al-Ulum as ＂knowing a way by which, human can adjust all of the concepts that have been proved in mathematics with verification to exotic objects, and helps their states in exotic objects to be carried＂. He believes this will be recognized and be attained by craft （sana＇at, art）. This was the common view in Islamic wisdom and philosophy in third and fourth Hijra centuries （9 ＆ 10 CE）. Researchers believe that the unique emphasis on parallelism between theoretical science and practical work is an important feature of Baghdad school and affected Islamic visual culture. Baghdad school had been affected by translation. In this way, Ikhwan-al-Safa, whom wrote the first encyclopedia of science in Islamic culture, had a very efficient role. They devised geometry into intellectual and sensual ones in the second part of their book, al-Rasa-el, and considered intellectual geometry as one of the middle philosophy and recognition and understanding factor for meaning of sensual geometry evidences. They insisted on basic situation of intellectual geometry in guidance of whom, want to learn intellectual things from sensual ones. They knew intellectual geometry as the factor for requiring skill in scientific crafts （sana＇at）, and sensual geometry as the factor of practical crafts, and made a vast relation between them. They also defined end of intellectual geometry understanding the base of all sciences and the main factor of wise, essence of self （nafs）. Important feature of Ikhwan-al-Safa＇s wisdom is omitting the gap between theory and practice, making a vast relation between them, which affected the meaning of crafts in Islamic culture, and rendered a spiritual feature to crafts and arts. It seems this relation has created the concept of traditional arts, and integrating wisdom and crafts in Iranian-Islamic culture constructed all of the Fotowat-Nam e （book of Chivalry）. This article reviews the concept, which affiliates theory and practice in third and fourth centuries and has a deep effect on recognition of art and craft in Islamic culture.

Definition of Language and Art in the Context of the Evolution Theory

The problem of human language, arithmetic, and art was studied in the context of the definition ＂civilization＂ on the basis of Darwin＇s theory. The author defines civilization as ＂survival of the weak＂. The author supposes that language and art were invented by the men to describe their heroic deeds for the women in order to be selected by them for reproduction. In other words, language and art became a selection criterions together with beauty and presents. Finally, the author defines language and art.

Uta Frith’s thoughts on the Theory of Mind and Autistic Deficit: Dialogue between Art and Neuroscience

The contemporary scientist and German developmental psychologist at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience of University College London, Uta Frith has mainly focused her research on autism spectrum disorder and the related theory-of-mind deficit. To explain the autistic mentalistic deficit, the psychologist has used a specific tool: art, her initial pursuit cultivated at the Universität des Saarlandes, in Germany. Thus, this work seeks to reconstruct the artistic influences on Uta Frith’s scientific efforts, highlighting how the dialogical intersection of two seemingly distant disciplines, like art and neuroscience, can generate surprising new networks of signification and an understanding of the intrapsychic and interpsychic worlds. Art challenges us to develop moments of neuroscientific knowledge. On the other. In contrast, neuroscience offers the opportunity to develop further insights into the role of visual perception in contemplating works of art.

Research on Development of the Aesthetic Interaction and Interaction Design Theory and the Applications on Art Design Field

In this paper, we conduct research on development of aesthetic interaction and interaction design theory and the applications on art design fi eld. In this article to discuss the experience and the depth of the aesthetic object is limited in the fi eld of aesthetics, although both clearly show their subject or object, but if points in general is easy to fall into the quagmire of subjective idealism and mechanical materialism, it is off the aesthetic realm. It is on the basis of the unity between subject and object of this essay, it is in this, experience and the depth of the aesthetic object is worth exploring the intersection. Organizational communication and the reception aesthetics in their own unique research perspective and multi-disciplinary background, in the organization and the role of aesthetic gradually revealed, integration and interaction of the two is the inevitable trend of development. Under this basis, we propose the corresponding issues as the implementation that is meaningful.

Analysis on the Homogeneities between Traditional Chinese Music and Painting Arts from Qichang Dong＇s ＂Theory of Southern and Northern Schools＂

Qichang Dong was a famous calligraphy and painting artist in ancient China. The theory of southern and northern schools proposed by him was a conclusion to traditional Chinese landscape painting art, and played an incomparable function in the traditional Chinese painting history in comparison with other painting theories. In the painting history, there were the theory of ＂pre-Dong＂ and the theory of ＂post-Dong＂ . In this paper, by starting from Qichang Dong＇ s ＂theory of southern and northern schoots＂ , the homogeneities between traditional Chinese music and painting arts are analyzed from the principle of spirit and the principle of technology, so that the homogeneities between traditional Chinese music and painting arts are explored in aesthetic concept and actual art creation.

The “Dead Universe” Theory: Natural Separation of Galaxies Driven by the Remnants of a Supermassive Dead Universe

This article explores the dead universe theory as a novel interpretation for the origin and evolution of the universe, suggesting that our cosmos may have originated from the remnants of a preceding universe. This perspective challenges the conventional Big Bang theory, particularly concerning dark matter, the expansion of the universe, and the interpretation of phenomena such as gravitational waves.

Artistic Renewal and Heritage Conservation-Deleuze’s Philosophy in Reimagining Yongning Ancient Walled City

The Yongning Ancient Walled City, located in Quanzhou, Fujian Province, is a historic site with over 600 years of cultural heritage. Its preservation faces challenges posed by rapid urbanization, yet it also offers opportunities for creative renewal through artistic and cultural frameworks. This paper explores a novel approach to reimagining Yongning by integrating Gilles Deleuze’s philosophy-emphasizing multiplicity, rhizomatic connections, and the fold-with environmental art and cultural narratives. By drawing on Deleuze’s concepts of “nomadic space” and “fold” within the context of heritage conservation, this study provides actionable strategies for blending modern artistic practices with traditional cultural identity. Through field research, theoretical exploration, and design application, this paper demonstrates how Yongning can transform into a living museum of art, culture, and history. The findings aim to expand the dialogue on aesthetics, spatial theory, and heritage renewal.

艺术的终结困境———从理论争鸣到当代社会的审美挑战

自19世纪黑格尔开始,“艺术终结”问题就成为了备受瞩目的讨论热点,其核心议题在于艺术范畴、边际的界定以及艺术与非艺术之间界限的划分。艺术无法在自身范围内对这些问题做出诠释,只能将希望寄托于哲学来做进一步说明,因此艺术在某一个点会终结自身,让位于哲学。机械复制时代对艺术的存在方式产生了挑战与质疑,摄影技术、电影艺术的兴起致使艺术的膜拜价值让位于展示价值,其原本的无目的性、无功利性也就此泯灭,从而催生了一个全新的景观社会。若能给予艺术与美一个清晰的定义,艺术终结问题便会迎刃而解,然而艺术是拒绝被规训的存在,审美的特殊性阻碍了对审美认知进行普泛性概括的可能,同时艺术的内在品鉴让其自身具有了不可交流的特征,因此艺术终结问题也将继续进一步被追问。

真情、创化、时间与直觉——朱谦之唯情哲学视域下“艺术情本论”要义探析

在中国艺术理论的发展进程中,以情论艺者不乏其人,朱谦之属于20世纪初中国“艺术情本论”的倡导者。与一些学者对西方“艺术情感论”的介绍性传播不同,朱谦之吸收西方哲学与艺术中的情知、情见,挖掘中国传统文化中的情思、情识,以西启中、以中补西,于唯情哲学的精微之思中重观艺术,提出“艺术情本论”,其观点极具思想性、探索性和时代性。从真情、创化、时间与直觉诸点入手,探究唯情哲学视域下朱谦之“艺术情本论”的要义,可在揭橥其观点要旨的同时丰富对20世纪初中国艺术有情论的研究内容,凸显其观点在学术史、文化史上的价值。

“艺术”概念狭义化、理念化的理论反思

古今中外的艺术史都证明,艺术本来是人类参与度最高、形式最为多样的创造美的精神实践活动,艺术的概念是广义性的。但是,西方艺术理论有将艺术狭义化、理念化的倾向。其原因可以追溯到柏拉图理念说和模仿论对西方艺术理论的深远影响,以及黑格尔“艺术即绝对理念的表现”的理论导向。20世纪以来部分西方艺术理论家对此有所反省,但未根本改变长期形成的认知;现代主义艺术和法兰克福学派批判理论对艺术有新的理解,但在客观上又强化了这种倾向而形成悖论。近现代以来随着西方文艺理论的西风东渐,这种狭义化、理念化的艺术思想影响了中国的艺术理论与学科发展,对此有必要进行反思。
