Rethinking the Spirit of Chinese Aesthetics ; Iznova promišljati duh kineske estetike ; Den Geist der chinesischen Ästhetik neu denken ; Repenser l’esprit de l’esthétique chinoise

The spirit of Chinese aesthetics is deeply rooted in the conception of the unity between heaven and human. From the perspective of pragmatic vitalism, its durative mechanism can be traced back to the vital cause. This cause comprises three main aspects: the substantial, the applicable, and the fruitful, constituting a dialectically interactive and interconnected framework. In practice, this framework is exemplified by the art of painting literati landscape characterised by a progressive process. This process is exposed to three primary strategies or acts of learning: to follow old masters at the initial stage, to follow mountains and rivers at the intermediate stage, and to follow Heaven and Earth at the ultimate stage. All of these are illustrated through the relevant theory and art-making related to most Chinese literati painters, of which Dong Qichang, Shi Tao, and Huang Binhong are three typical representatives from different periods between the 16th and 20th centuries. ; Duh kineske estetike duboko je ukorijenjen u koncepciji jedinstva između neba i čovjeka. Iz perspektive pragmatičnog vitalizma, njegov se mehanizam trajnosti može pratiti do vitalnog uzroka. Ovaj uzrok obuhvaća tri glavna aspekta: supstancijalni, primjenjivi i plodonosni, koji čine dijalektički interaktivan i međusobno povezan okvir. U praksi, ovaj okvir oslikava umjetnost naučenjačkog slikanja krajolika koje karakterizira progresivni proces. Taj je proces izložen trima primarnim strategijama ili činovima učenja: slijediti stare majstore u početnoj fazi, slijediti planine i rijeke u srednjoj fazi i slijediti Nebo i Zemlju u konačnoj fazi. Sve to, prikazano je u relevantnoj teoriji i umjetničkom stvaralaštvu za većinu kineskih slikara naučenjaka, od kojih su Dong Qichang, Shi Tao i Huang Binhong tri tipična predstavnika iz različitih razdoblja između 16. i 20. stoljeća. ; Der Geist der chinesischen Ästhetik ist tief in der Vorstellung von der Einheit zwischen Himmel und Mensch verwurzelt.
