Marcel Duchamp (28 July 1887 – 2 October 1968; French pronunciation: [maʁsɛl dyˈʃɑ̃]) was a French artist whose work is most often associated with the Dadaist and Surrealist movements. Duchamp's output influenced the development of post-World War I Western art. He advised modern art collectors, such as Peggy Guggenheim and other prominent figures, thereby helping to shape the tastes of Western art during this period. A playful man, Duchamp challenged conventional thought about artistic processes and art marketing, not so much by writing, but through subversive actions such as dubbing a urinal art and naming it Fountain. He produced relatively few artworks, while moving quickly through the avant-garde circles of his time.

Answered by Fuller Brush - Tue Jan 20 11:11:42 2009 How is Marcel Duchamp's work related to the Kantian aesthetic of disinterestedness?
Q. And could some one explain in simple terms what is meant by disinterestedness in the context of Kant's philosophy? "In the chapter "Analytic of the Beautiful" of the Critique of Judgment, Kant states that beauty is not a property of an artwork or natural phenomenon, but is instead a consciousness of the pleasure which attends the 'free play' of the imagination and the understanding. Even though it appears that we are using reason to decide that which is beautiful, the judgment is not a cognitive judgment,[58] "and is consequently not logical, but aesthetical" ( 1). A pure judgement of taste is in fact subjective insofar as it refers to the emotional response of the subject and is based upon nothing but esteem for an object itself: it… [cont.] Asked by drewstah - Mon Apr 6 01:59:11 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. MD's most infamous work is the "Fountain," and his iconic piece is "Nude Descending a Staircase." Both are remarkable for their aesthetic, which is geometric, playful. Kant's material man in a material world is existential, with an overlay of Germain Pietism and moral earnestness. What Kant terms "aesthetic judgment" is a kind of summation of responses similar to how Kant constructs ideation: a bottom-up process of Whiteheadian accretion, bits become thoughts become concepts, etc. However, modern scientific theory notes that aesthetic summation is similar to cognitive summation. In other words, there is a fundamental logic ("causality") to both. Conversely, cognition is found per this process or logic to be as "subjective" as… [cont.] Answered by j153e - Mon Apr 6 02:42:58 2009 From Yahoo Answer Search: "marcel duchamp" |
