The art ideal is usually understood as an exemplary art that stands out in a formalist conception of the history of art, or as the art that matches the programmatic conception of a normative aesthetics. Hegel’s conception is different in that it makes no emphatic command for ideal conditions of art or for it. Instead, and according to his notion of the ideal, which is none other than the idea of the true in history and its realities, the art ideal is art itself accomplishing this task of realization. It achieves this by way of intuition, and with relation to the culture of sensuality, whereby the demands for art transform themselves in concurrence with the ideas that brand culture in general. In agreement with this idea, art’s efforts do not consist so much in rendering the idea sensual, as in raising the sensual to appearance. This conception is exemplified in how Hegel approaches painting in his Lectures. This paper criticizes the usual interpretation of Hegel as a classicist, and strives to show the current potential of his theory. |
