Verlust der Mitte: Die bildende Kunst des 19. und 20. by Hans Sedlmayr

March 4, 2017 by admin

By Hans Sedlmayr

Im ersten Teil behandelt Sedlmayr die >>Symptome<<, wie z. B. den Wandel der vorrangigen Aufgaben der Architektur vom Landschaftsgarten zur Fabrik. Den Hintergrund solcher Entwicklungsreihen bilden die vier durch >>Gesamtaufgaben<< gekennzeichneten Stilepochen Romanik, Gotik, Renaissance und Barock, sodass im anschliessenden Teil Diagnose und Verlauf die um 1760 wurzelnde Moderne als Ende der Stilgeschichte erscheint. Die Diagnose mündet in den Übergang von >>der 'Befreiung' zum Ende der Kunst<<. Der abschliessende Teil Zur Prognose und Entscheidung enthält die Erwartung, dass die Moderne >>als Ganzes gesehen, gerade auch im Chaotischen, den Charakter eines >geschlossenen< Zeitalters<< gewinnen kann. Vorläufig erweist sich als ihr einigendes Kriterium das Leiden an der Gottferne, die nirgends in gleicher Weise zum Ausdruck kommt wie in der Kunst.
