Konrad Paul Liesmann: Philosophy of Modern Art

If you look at the aspects of modern art philosophically and try to make a full philosophical examination of the broad extent of modern arts, it's probably almost like building an encyclopedia. You can't do that in this book. It is not to be denied that the simple, complete, unified theory of philosophy is possible and necessary, but it cannot be our subject. This book will tell you about the pre-selected case of how philosophy reacted to many phenomena of modern art and what philosophy has gone into with a concept, categories and systematic program. So, the efforts of art in explaining modernism were deliberately excluded from this book. What we're going to do here is sort of summarily summarize philosophical reasons for art and modern art. So the object of this book is not 19th and 20th-century art, but philosophical insights into art. Each chapter, in a historical order, reflects a wide range of views, different assumptions, and often conflicting evaluations of modern art, as well as the relationship between modern art and religion, society, nature and technology. The book will be a good guide for people interested in art and philosophy to give understanding and insight to the philosophy of art, and the modern art philosophy of Lismann, published in 1993, has been translated into many languages and is so much appreciated as an important art philosophy and an American entrance document.
