审美者与游戏人——关于艺术精神的一种诠释

关于艺术与游戏的讨论虽然已是老生常谈,但在某种意义上,这个现象本身也表明了这个话题仍蕴含有待进一步开发的理论价值.解释学家伽达默尔提出"作为节日的艺术"的命题,便是这方面的一个重要尝试.审美者与游戏人在当代文化中被日益强化的亲密接触,似乎促进了彼此的融合.这种将诗性文化与游戏活动相提并论的做法固然能为后者涂脂抹粉,但深入地来看,事实上完全阉割了艺术的精神.尽管这种现象已成为后现代文化景观中的一种时尚,但它对艺术文化的破坏也有目共睹.对此,批评的缺席是一种失职.

Aestheticians and Game Players: An Hermeneutic Approach to Artistic Spirit

There has been too much discussion on the relationship between art and game.And in a sense,this phenomenon itself reflects that the topic needs to be further explored,from a theoretical perspective.In this respect,Hans-Georg Gadamer's proposition "art as festival" was an important endeavor.The increasingly close contacts between aestheticians and players in contemporary cultural context have led to their integration.With poetic culture included in game activities,it obviously can do good to the latter on the surface.But on the other hand,it will kill the spirit of art in nature.Though the integration has become such a fashion in postmodern cultural environment,it can be very detrimental to art and culture.Then,the absence of criticism is a kind of irresponsibility.
