艺术源自非艺术,这已是艺术史上的常识。也难怪,当人们试图解释什么是艺术的时候,恰恰是用一系列非艺术概念从外部去定义它的,换言之,正是非艺术的历史内容界定了不同时期的艺术。艺术史在谈论艺术起源的时候,总是说它和巫术有关,和人类历史传说及神话记载有关,或者说和人的祭祀活动、日常仪式有关。但这是后人追加在古代人身上的。把那些活动中的某种形式抽象出来冠以艺术的名称,都是后来的知识事件。起先人类在做这种活动的时候,并没有艺术的概念,而只是说,这些活动具有现在称之为“艺术”的形式,它们一开始仅仅出于一种实用的目的——巫术是实用的,日常仪式也是。 Art comes from non-art, this is the history of art history. No wonder people try to explain what art is when precisely defining it from the outside with a series of non-art concepts. In other words, it is the non-art history that defines the art of different periods. Art history When talking about the origin of art, it is always said that it is related to witchcraft and related to human historical legends and myths, or to people’s sacrificial activities and daily ceremonies. But this is the posterity added to the ancient people. It is later intellectual events to abstract some form of activity into the name of art. At first, human beings did not have the concept of art when doing this kind of activity. Instead, they merely said that these activities have the form now called “art,” which was originally only for a practical purpose - witchcraft Is practical, daily routines too.
