John Hyman (University of Oxford )
on
Art and Reality
Tuesday, 4 March, 4.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412
ABSTRACT
When we survey the main theoretical writings about art from the
twentieth century, both by art historians and by philosophers, one of
the dominant themes is a kind of scepticism about representation in art,
or at least about the idea that representation in art can reveal the
world to us, as it is in reality, independently of the conventions and
local perspectives that limit and control art, as they limit and control
the whole of human life. I shall examine how changing ideas about the
relationship between art and reality have affected the historical
understanding of a particular episode in the history of art, the
transformation of Greek art from the mid-sixth to the mid-fourth century
BC.
