  • Two Conceptions of Harmony in Ancient Western and Eastern Aesthetics: “Dialectic Harmony” and “Ambiguous Harmony”
    TWO CONCEPTIONS OF HARMONY IN ANCIENT WESTERN AND EASTERN AESTHETICS: “DIALECTIC HARMONY” AND “AMBIGUOUS HARMONY” Tak-lap Yeung∗ Abstract: In this paper, I argue that the different understandings of “harmony”, which are rooted in ancient Greek and Chinese thought, can be recapitulated in the name of “dialectic harmony” and “ambiguous harmony” regarding the representation of the beautiful. The different understandings of the concept of harmony lead to at least two kinds of aesthetic value as well as ideality – harmony in conciliation and harmony in diversity. Through an explication of the original meaning and relation between the concept of harmony and beauty, we can learn more about the cosmo-metaphysical origins in Western and Eastern aesthetics, with which we may gain insights for future aesthetics discourse. Introduction It is generally accepted that modern philosophy can trace itself back to two major origin points, ancient Greece in the West and China in the East. To understand the primary presuppositions of Western and Eastern philosophical aesthetics, we must go back to these origins and examine the core concepts which have had a great influence on later aesthetic representation. Inspecting the conception of “harmony”, a central concept of philosophical aesthetic thought for both the ancient Greek and Chinese world, may bring us valuable insight in aesthetic differences which persist today. In the following, I argue that the different understandings of “harmony”, which are rooted in ancient Greek and Chinese thought, can be recapitulated in the name of “dialectic harmony” and “ambiguous harmony” regarding the representation of the beautiful.1 The different understandings of the concept of harmony lead to, at least, two kinds of aesthetic value as well as ideality – harmony in conciliation and harmony in diversity.

  • HARMONY HAMMOND with Phillip Griffith
    Art June 3rd, 2016 INCONVERSATION HARMONY HAMMOND with Phillip Griffith Harmony Hammond made her start as an artist in the feminist milieu of 1970s New York, co-founding A.I.R. Gallery, the first women’s gallery, in 1972. Her early artwork developed a feminist, lesbian, and queer idiom for painting and sculpture, especially in such celebrated works as her woven and painted Floorpieces (1973) and wrapped sculptures, like Hunkertime (1979 – 80). Since 1984, she has lived and worked in New Mexico. Her current show at Alexander Gray Associates (May 19 – June 25, 2016) showcases what she calls her “near monochrome” paintings and monotype prints on grommeted paper that Lucy Lippard has termed “grommetypes.” On the occasion of the exhibition’s opening, Hammond spoke with Phillip Griffith about martial arts, the painting body, and violence in her work. Phillip Griffith (Rail): Your paintings from this new exhibition seem appreciably different than the wrapped paintings included in your 2013 show with Alexander Gray. Harmony Hammond: Well, Things Various (2015), the earliest painting in the current exhibition, segues from the 2013 work. The visual vocabulary of grommeted straps—sometimes tied together, sometimes not—attached to the thick paint surface with pigment-covered pushpins, is the same. Only in Things Various, most of the straps hang open, untied, suggesting only the potential of connection or restraint. The new paintings continue to emphasize the material engagement of paint, but differ from the earlier work through the use of the grommeted grid as a disruptive visual strategy and the shift to what is going on beneath/below/under what we perceive as the painting surface.

Abstract: This study was developed during 2018 and 2019, with 10th- and 11th-grade students from the Jose Maria Obando High School (Fredonia, Antioquia, Colombia) as the target population. Here, the “art as a method” was proposed, in which, after a diagnostic, three moments were developed to establish a dialogue between art and mathematics. The moments include Moment 1: introduction to art and mathematics as ways of doing art, Moment 2: collective experimentation, and Moment 3: re-signification of education as a model of experience. The methodology was derived from different mathematical-based theories, such as pendulum motion, centrifugal force, solar energy, and Chladni plates, allowing for the exploration of possibilities to new paths of knowledge from proposing the creative act. Likewise, the possibility of generating a broad vision of reality arose from the creative act, where understanding was reached from logical-emotional perspectives beyond the rational vision of science and its descriptions. Keywords: art; art as method; creative act; mathematics 1. Introduction Citation: Arias-Alfonso, A.F.; Franco, C.A. The Creative Act in the Dialogue There has always been a conception in the collective imagination concerning the between Art and Mathematics.

  • Modernism 1 Modernism
    Modernism 1 Modernism Modernism, in its broadest definition, is modern thought, character, or practice. More specifically, the term describes the modernist movement, its set of cultural tendencies and array of associated cultural movements, originally arising from wide-scale and far-reaching changes to Western society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Modernism was a revolt against the conservative values of realism.[2] [3] [4] Arguably the most paradigmatic motive of modernism is the rejection of tradition and its reprise, incorporation, rewriting, recapitulation, revision and parody in new forms.[5] [6] [7] Modernism rejected the lingering certainty of Enlightenment thinking and also rejected the existence of a compassionate, all-powerful Creator God.[8] [9] In general, the term modernism encompasses the activities and output of those who felt the "traditional" forms of art, architecture, literature, religious faith, social organization and daily life were becoming outdated in the new economic, social, and political conditions of an Hans Hofmann, "The Gate", 1959–1960, emerging fully industrialized world.

Another paradigmatic exhortation was also as a teacher of art, and a modernist theorist articulated by philosopher and composer Theodor Adorno, who, in the both in his native Germany and later in the U.S. During the 1930s in New York and California he 1940s, challenged conventional surface coherence and appearance of introduced modernism and modernist theories to [10] harmony typical of the rationality of Enlightenment thinking.

One or other dimension might be lacking, but the possibil- ity of all three, and of music that develops simultaneously along each of the axes that they define, is both distinctive of Western art music and respon- sible for its many aesthetic triumphs.

  • A Mathematician's Lament
    A Mathematician’s Lament by Paul Lockhart musician wakes from a terrible nightmare. In his dream he finds himself in a society where A music education has been made mandatory. “We are helping our students become more competitive in an increasingly sound-filled world.” Educators, school systems, and the state are put in charge of this vital project. Studies are commissioned, committees are formed, and decisions are made— all without the advice or participation of a single working musician or composer. Since musicians are known to set down their ideas in the form of sheet music, these curious black dots and lines must constitute the “language of music.” It is imperative that students become fluent in this language if they are to attain any degree of musical competence; indeed, it would be ludicrous to expect a child to sing a song or play an instrument without having a thorough grounding in music notation and theory. Playing and listening to music, let alone composing an original piece, are considered very advanced topics and are generally put off until college, and more often graduate school. As for the primary and secondary schools, their mission is to train students to use this language— to jiggle symbols around according to a fixed set of rules: “Music class is where we take out our staff paper, our teacher puts some notes on the board, and we copy them or transpose them into a different key. We have to make sure to get the clefs and key signatures right, and our teacher is very picky about making sure we fill in our quarter-notes completely.

  • Harmony Hammond Harmony Hammond
    Harmony Hammond Harmony Hammond October 23 – December 7, 2013 Alexander Gray Associates A Manifesto (Personal) of Monochrome (Sort of) Painting, like any cultural language, doesn’t have to rely on its historicized meanings. I don’t accept that painting is an over-determined site, a privileged domain of the authoritative masculine voice, or that monochrome painting is necessarily a dead end—the inevitable conclusion of a history of art as a hierarchy of purifications. I make large thickly painted near-monochrome paintings. While these paintings engage with (and I like to think, interrupt and resist), the history of modernist painting—and more specifically, narratives of abstraction and monochrome—they come out of post-minimal and feminist concerns with materials and process rather than modernist reduction. They are formal, frontal, condensed. They resist pictorial space and assert the painting object. But they also invite content. My work is not pure, isolated, authoritative, universal, self-referential, self-sufficient, or removed from social function. I invoke references and associations. I welcome the world outside the painting edge into the painting field. Because monochrome painting is typically one surface and non-hierarchical in composition, the focus is on nuance of sameness and difference within and between paintings. I disagree with readings of monochrome based on absence, emptiness or blankness because they define monochrome as the “other” in relation to image and signification. These readings do not take into account the materiality of paint as a carrier of meaning. The paintings are layered and built out of themselves—from the inside out. Paint is applied with a brush, but it’s not about the stroke or mark in the abstract expressionist sense.

  • Dirac's Principle of Mathematical Beauty, Mathematics of Harmony
    1 Dirac’s Principle of Mathematical Beauty, Mathematics of Harmony and “Golden” Scientific Revolution Alexey Stakhov The International Club of the Golden Section 6 McCreary Trail, Bolton, ON, L7E 2C8, Canada [email protected] • www.goldenmuseum.com Abstract. In this study we develop the Mathematics of Harmony as a new interdisciplinary direction of modern science. The newest discoveries in different fields of modern science based on the Mathematics of Harmony, namely, mathematics (a general theory of hyperbolic functions and a solution to Hilbert’s Fourth Problem, algorithmic measurement theory and “golden” number theory), computer science (the “golden information technology), crystallography (quasi-crystals), chemistry (fullerenes), theoretical physics and cosmology (Fibonacci-Lorentz transformations, the “golden” interpretation of special theory of relativity and “golden” interpretation of the Universe evolution), botany (new geometric theory of phyllotaxis), genetics (“golden” genomatrices) and so on, are creating a general picture of the “Golden” Scientific Revolution, which can influence fundamentally on the development of modern science and education.
