话说这个关于艺术的题目比较难写啊,写得晕晕乎乎,还看了好几遍自己的提纲。希望大家多提些建议!
TOPIC: ISSUE131 - "The arts (painting, music, literature, etc.) reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society."
WORDS: 565 TIME: 00:45:00 DATE: 2010-2-27 21:16:52
提纲
1、某些艺术的确能够为我们揭示一些隐藏在人民心中的理念和社会现象。
2、多数艺术的社会信息其实是评论家给的,其实并不一定是艺术品要表达的。基于两点考虑,首先艺术是难懂的,我们可能根本不清楚它到底要向我诉说什么。其次,艺术往往和作者的人生而非他所在的社会有直接关系。
The arts are the precious rarity of human culture. Nowadays, the arts and the science provide a important impetus for advancement of our society. Artistic thoughts, which often stem from their own lives and the reflection of the society they living, are often included in the arts. Do the arts reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society? In my opinion, The arts are firstly created by artists themselves and may reveal some social hidden value, however, we should enjoy arts in a aesthetic attitude rather than always connecting them with ideas of the society.
Admittedly, Some arts not only includes artists' thoughts, but also reflect the reality and other hidden ideas of a society. Painting and music usually show a insight of our heart, which includes hope, happiness and as well sadness. We may strike a sympathy when enjoying these arts and find some long forgotten feeling from our heart such as the nostalgia sense. Literature also shows people's thoughts and experience in a society, which will help us get a various cross section about the society and reveal some hidden ideas which cann't be perceived in our daily life. For example, the literature "the boat trackers of Volga river" represents us a picture about the trackers' miserable life in 16th century of Russia. Van Gogh's work "sunflowers" show us his strong feeling about life and from that works we can understand life in a deeper way. (感觉艺术能够反映隐藏在社会中的理念和动力很难论证,没有什么例子好举,不知道各位有什么好的意见?)
However, Most of the social information in arts are given by later people rather the artist itself. Different people may have different views about a art. Just as one proverb says, "There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand audiences' eyes". This phenomenon reveals the truth that social information in arts is subjective and mainly made by the critics, they may not really represent the true thoughts of artist. In that sense, if we arbitrarily impose some social ideas in a art, we actually misunderstand this art.
There are another two reasons that arts should not always be related with social meaning. Firstly, sometimes it's difficult to precisely tell what a art want to give us. Some arts are too abstract to understand, and may be just a work of artist, who did not want to represent any social values. Just like the Mona Lisa's smile, we will never know why this smile is so charm and it may be funny, if some one proves that this smile actually reveals some social hidden impulses.
Secondly, Some arts are a reflection of artist's life rather than the process of society, especially for arts created by individual. Those arts are often full of artists' feeling about their family and emotional life, which may have little relationship with society. Picasso's works have three major period in his life, each period of arts are different from others, people may think that there were three important changes in his society, however, it's far from truth. Actually such changes were caused by his own life. In that sense, we should keep in mind that sometimes the arts may have little relation with outside society.
Last but not least, Although the arts may reveal some hidden social ideas and impulses, but when we enjoy the arts, we should keep a aesthetic attitude to arts, always connecting arts with society may lead us a false comprehension about the true meaning of arts.
