This post is about my opinion respect a video:
Denis Dutton talks about “A Darwinian theory of beauty”. Here Dutton explains
the theory that the reason that we find something beautiful is human evolution
and not just the beauty is "in the eye of the beholder". He starts to
talk that is complicate define why something is beauty because it’s things very
different.
All the
same, he points to the answer can be found in a Darwinian theory, evolution. He
says that beauty is for adaptive effect and I consider that is true but I think
that he leaves some things aside. Rather than argue against, because I think
fifteen minutes is not enough, maybe he has many more tests, I will discuss
with one example.
If the
classic music is beauty, like Beethoven, why not all the people listen to? Why
not all the people have to Beethoven in their favorite’s music? And I don’t
tell Beethoven isn’t beauty music, but the question is interesting.
I really
believe that his theory missing something else, but as I said, maybe fifteen
minutes are not enough to say everything. I love, then, to read more about his
theory in the future.
Bye!
aajajajaja you're so critic. Heart for you
ResponderEliminaryour question have much sense, the art beauty is not very popular today :)
ResponderEliminarI think in matters of taste there is nothing written lol, so maybe I like Beethoven and at the same time I like Marilyn Manson, and I can found beauty in both. Kisses (:
ResponderEliminarfifteen minutes is enough!!
ResponderEliminarhe says that beauty is an universal thing or feeling and everyone loves a perfect confection and virtuosity. That's not true and he doesn't more time to talk about this.
Now in contemporary art the works are beautiful and simple even the work shows nothing virtuous.
