In the first video Philosophers theory on aesthetics, I learned about the history and different points of view of Arts from the artist the ideas of key figures in the shaping and understanding of aesthetics, Plato, Francis Hutcheson, and Kant to Leon Battista Alberti, Stendhal, and Tolstoy. The second video Carta Neurobiology and art and aesthetics, I learn from the presentation how the brain play an important place on art. This video was very impressionist for me something I said art is a paint a photo something like that. But know I saw the people study the brain for connect with the art is a something different for me. I just beginning the class and start to understand better what is art. In the cnn article I read this at the end I found have some information relation with the second video.
I feel Plato 4th Century B.C. is most important because he was early in the history. Also I like this line "There is a beauty by which all things are beauty." He have the idea that everything have beauty just you have to founded, that's my personal opinion. He present symmetry in his art. For me was very impressive all of is work he can make perfect art using his brain nothing of technology in that era. About Changeux was interesting how he study the brain, how he compare the symmetry with the bones of the head. How he make the comparation symmetry vs. aesthetics. Ramachadran present the point of culture and humans. He talk about how the brain respond to art. In addition the most interesting for me from Ramachadran was when he talk about the eight laws of art. Wow! art have laws too. The article the videos and the readings are all connected. They present different point f view of Aesthetics and how brain, history and culture are all involved in art. The films and the articles help me to understand and get connected to the text. They have almost the same topics but have different point of views. But they demonstrate that art is history, cultural is neurological and very important in our society.
