Showing 3 results for Autonomy

Saber Dashtara,
Volume 3, Issue 12 (11-2014)
Abstract

Art’s autonomy and its independence from any sort of external aim, is one of the most important concepts rising from the modern art and in a sense, what constitutes the very border between modern and traditional arts. While the Philosophy of art has shown many different positive or negative reactions to the autonomy of art, the present article tries to study and compare two exemplary reactions which belong to Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin. Scholars usually tend to categorize these two thinkers under the rather vague term “the Frankfurt School” and then put the stress on the convergences between their ideas but in the case of art, as we shall see, Benjamin and Adorno seem somehow divergent. This divergence can on the one hand, help us comprehend the different aspects of modern art and on the other, it can pave the way for a deeper understanding regarding each of these two figures.

Abstract

Critical approach to situation of modern culture is on the base of obstacles that are proposed in this approach. In this approach, the most important obstacle to ‘autonomy’ is the logic of ‘instrumentality’ and its disenchanting sequence. On this foundation, the question is whether we can find a sphere that will be beyond of logic of ‘instrumentality’. In addition, are the aesthetic sphere and art beyond of this logic and also is this sphere able to pave the way for getting rid of this logic? Theoretical framework in this article, for assessing critical approach to modern culture, is the trajectory of critical thought that Foucault has drawn. The trajectory that starts by Nietzsche and lead to Frankfurt school. Weber, Lyotard and Foucault would be compared in this framework and on the base of method of Lovejoy`s history of ideas, to see if their critical approach to ‘instrumentality’ lead to preferring of the aesthetic sphere and art (as possibility for redemption through aesthetic ‘autonomy’). Findings of this article shows that Foucault (on contrary to Weber and Lyotard) thinks that aesthetics isn`t beyond of ‘instrumentality’ and Weber (on contrary to Lyotard and Foucault) thinks that the avant-gard art can’t challenge ‘instrumentality’. Foucault, however, (on contrary to Lyotard) thinks that redemption locates in boundary of the rational.

Abstract

The problem of Autonomy of art in Adorno’s aesthetic is one of the most valuable and impressive subjects in contemporary aesthetic. On the one hand, Adorno uses “monad” metaphor (in Leibnizian meaning) for describing autonomous art work, and, on the other hand, he introduces art work as an absolute commodity. This study wants to answer this question: according to Adorno’s idea, how autonomous art works are to be realized under the condions where commodified relation are dominated? Understanding this subject is dependent on conceiving the theoretical basis of Adorno’s philosophy and especially his negative dialectic theory. In the first part of this study I would try to prove the necessity of Adorno’s dialecticalhistorical defense of autonomy of art with a short explanation of his non- identical thinking approach and negative dialectic theory, as a basis of his philosophy. In the second part, while explaining the aspect of political economy in the theory of negative dialectic and by elucidating the dominant commodified logic in art, I would try to clarify that the art work reveals the absolute commodity to be an aspect of autonomy.
