Pierre Bourdieu on Art - Dictionary of Arguments
I 23 Modern art/Ortega y Gasset/Bourdieu: Ortega y Gasset attests to modern art a systematic rejection of everything "human", i. e. everything general, common - in contrast to the distinguished - rejection of all passions, feelings and sensations with which the "ordinary" people struggle in their "ordinary" existence. >Ortega y Gasset. I 24 Art/Kant/Bourdieu: speaks of disinterested pleasure, while the people expect each image to fulfil a function, be it that of a sign that is often explicitly related to the norms of morality or pleasure. On the other hand, the intellectual believes more in the representation than the depicted. >Art/Kant, >Artworks/Kant, >Aethetics/Kant, >Aesthetic experience/Kant, >Beauty/Kant. I 25 Definition Stylization/Bourdieu: setting the primacy of form over function. There is no area in which the stylization of life did not have the same effects:.... the ability to aestheticize arbitrary or even "vulgar" objects... and to let the principles of a "pure" aesthetic play in complete reversal of the popular attitude. I 26 Artworks/Bourdieu: the objects, persons and situations that receive cultural consecration experience an ontological increase reminding of transubstantiation. >Culture, >Cultural tradition, >Culture shift._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
