BEAUTY AND RELEVANCE
( Looping and time trends )
In human life, as in a large modern supermarket has everything. And if that something is not, it must appear in the future. However, the future and is already held, it follows from today and yesterday .
That's the twentieth century was packed , that is future-oriented , is gone , and now, it is - the future is coming.
We are taking our first steps in this new, yet unknown world. Today, we are keenly interested in the question - if we move in the same direction , continuing inertial motion ? Or we are waiting for a new stage , with the change of lifestyle ?
For this we need to look again at the top of the trends that we are used to identify to the twentieth century .
It was an unprecedented rejection of the culture of the past, in favor of yet non-existent future. As an illustration I shall string of correspondence between 1890 Gauguin and Bernard : " Stop this disgusting ... Europe ... this stinking crowd ."
It so happened that the twentieth century has hung between nonexistent past (after all was abandoned ) , and had not yet matured to the future age , that is, in the void.
Century denied ( abstracted ) ( at least in theory) of what makes life - life. Radical departure from the art of sensual experience all the previous crop , led human in the inanimate , the intelligible world .
This world was first soaked air of the old culture . And initially , the enthusiasm of youth, fun destroying it , was great.
But , gradually , around the world , little by little , and began to turn into inhuman , dry , two-dimensional rational world , devoid of air and feeling the world uninhabitable .
Debunking the culture of the past required , along with the rejection of the concept of God , the Absolute, Harmony , Love and Humanity , and failure of the concept of beauty .
Reality was allowed to appear in works of art only mangled , deformed and repulsive. There was a lot of self-taught artists who have not declared possession of skill as an advantage , erected in principle.
And then the professionals become coarsened vernacular aesthetics and primitive savages creativity of children's drawings . Beauty may only appear in parodic form, as kitsch.
Outrageous and deliberate coarseness of manners became popular among people in the arts .
Of course, in this century , there were exceptions : we can remember Hippie 60s , with their white robes and enthusiasm Hinduism. For them, the characters were Flowers and Love , and the main principle of " non-violence ".
But the exceptions prove the rule ...
Especially because they are hippies , taking love, still, escape from reality into drugs and "doing nothing " or " nirvana ".
Is it possible to live a long time in this state?
No! We know that this movement was short-lived , though organically inscribed in the long twentieth century , which was longer than a century.
The basic idea of this century - the principle of "no " or "liberation" was formed in the late XIX century. Back in 1888, Nietzsche , going crazy , wrote: " ... my name will contact memory of something monstrous - the crisis , what was not on the ground of the deepest conflicts of conscience ... "
It took 120 years - the cycle is closed. *
We must pay tribute last time : here with unprecedented in the history of the seas of blood, neighbors as an unprecedented flowering of science and technology.
Once again I repeat : the main invention of the twentieth century - abstraction
or renunciation of all sensual . This is the key , as the phenomenal achievements and yawning gaps .
The main trouble was the century in isolation , as things and ideas from the outside world , on the whole, on the context in which they exist .
Absolutization freedom from the whole highlighted the confrontation and struggle.
Appeared totalitarian thinking , announces any concept or idea , the only infallible and correct.
For example, the exaggerated role of the proletariat in society , artificially imposed his dictatorship , leading to social and economic imbalance.
Proclaimed the class struggle , forgetting that without their cooperation , society is impossible.
Ortega y Gasset in the " dehumanization of art " (1925 ) divides the " outstanding people ... Order and the Order of ordinary people ." He states that "... the purpose ( Young Art ) : to be in the minority and fight with the majority ."
Everyone knows how to monstrous consequences resulted absolutisation "national idea" fascism.
Kandinsky was expected in 1910, the prevalence of the "spiritual" , and in art and in life has come to dominate the dry , rational scheme , lifeless .
The novelty effect was .
With the " emancipation from nature," the man was in a world devoid of images.
That is, in an ugly world.
Move further along the line in the same direction is not rational , boring and uninteresting .
Expectation of future life ended. The future begins , it's time to start living !
First you need to accept and love now , with all its advantages and disadvantages , in the diversity of its dimensions.
Plunge into the world of the senses , colors, smells and sounds , where rationality is not home , but its component parts .
Remember that the soul is in the head, but in my heart , and coincides with a big world, with all its grandeur and beauty ...
If the twentieth century began with the breaking of the past, and the characteristic was " shocking " " everyman " and hooliganism , the main thing for the coming century will be the whole creation .
Difficult but exciting task of collecting the debris of a collapsed chaotic world.
The task of restoring the lost links and relationships.
And the beauty is the hallmark feel for those who seek harmony.
