双向反思与殊途同归——论主流艺术和消费文化

社会变革导致艺术的社会角色和价值观发生变化,一方面,体制中的主流艺术和职业化的方向开始游离于民众的需要;另一方面,大众消费文化可能导致艺术的商品化和世俗化。艺术家的社会角色被异化,艺术在变异。究竟是现存的主流艺术有缺欠,还是消费文化的走向需要质疑？对各种社会需求是顺从、迎合,还是无视、对立？抑或调理性的满足？这需要双向的反思和沟通,以求在终极目标上殊途同归。

Two-way Reflection and Convergence of Ways-On Mainstream Art and Consumption Culture

Social changes usher in changes in social roles and values of art.On one hand,the mainstream art and its professionalization begin to deviate from demands of the mass;on the other,the consumer culture may result in the commercialization and popularization of art.The artists＇social roles are alienated and art is changing.Is the current mainstream art filled with flaws,or is the orientation of the consumer culture questionable？ Should art comply with the various social demands？ Or should it ignore or confront with them？ Or should it modity and satisfy them？ These questions require a two-way reflection and communication,in order to reach the same ultimate goal through diverse routes.
