我国自古以来特别重视艺术的文化性质和功用,形成“兴、观、群、怨”、“文以载道”等艺术文化传统;这一传统在近现代以来民族救亡运动中被不断强化;建国以来,艺术沿“民族的,科学的,大众的”文化路线演进,艺术文化研究确立了新的方向;改革开放以来,艺术文化学成为艺术学学科体系中重要组成部分。新世纪,艺术文化学显现出一定特色,其研究取向可概括为:立足当代艺术前沿,打通古今艺术文化承续纵轴;以“眼界向下”的勇气,接纳大众文化艺术和民族民间文化艺术;以国际视野,吸收借鉴西方艺术文化研究理论和方法。 Since ancient times, our country has paid special attention to the cultural nature and function of art and has formed an artistic and cultural tradition of “rejuvenating, observing, coexisting and resentment” and “containing the passage of man in the text.” This tradition was endorsed by the National Salvation Movement in the modern era Since the founding of the People’s Republic, art has evolved along the line of “ethnic, scientific and popular” culture. The study of art culture has established a new direction. Since the reform and opening up, art culture has become an important part of the art discipline system. In the new century, art culture shows its own characteristics. Its research orientation can be summarized as follows: based on the frontier of contemporary art, opening up the ancient and modern art and culture to the vertical axis; taking the courage of “horizons down”, accepting popular culture and arts and folk Culture and art; with an international perspective, learn from the theories and methods of Western art and culture research.
