Abstract
ABSTRACT The gaze contributes to a way of seeing in the exploration of visual art. However, this visual logic often remains within the subjective ‘fold’, neglecting the ‘unthought’ arising from the interaction between the observer and subject, and leading to a certain closure. My research investigates Su Shi's bamboo theory and the interpretation of liubai space in Chinese landscape painting. I aim to uncover the ‘logic of immanence’ that extends the concept of gaze beyond the physical. I achieve this by proposing that vision no longer holds precedence; instead, it is internalized as a motivating factor influencing an artist's movements and behaviors. This perspective sparks a consideration of the ‘unthought’ aspect of the gaze within art practice.
ABSTRACT The gaze contribute to a way of seeing in the exploration of visual art.然而,这种视觉逻辑往往停留在主观的 "褶皱 "之中,忽视了观察者与主体之间互动所产生的 "非思考",从而导致某种封闭性。我的研究调查了苏轼的竹论和中国山水画中对留白空间的诠释。我的目标是揭示 "内在逻辑",将凝视的概念扩展到物理之外。为了实现这一目标,我提出视觉不再具有优先地位,相反,它被内化为影响艺术家动作和行为的动力因素。这一观点引发了对艺术实践中凝视的 "非思考 "方面的思考。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Visual Art Practice (JVAP) is a forum of debate and inquiry for research in art. JVAP is concerned with visual art practice including the social, economic, political and cultural frames within which the formal concerns of art and visual art practice are located. The journal is concerned with research engaged in these disciplines, and with the contested ideas of knowledge formed through that research. JVAP welcomes submissions that explore new theories of research and practice and work on the practical and educational impact of visual arts research. JVAP recognises the diversity of research in art and visual arts, and as such, we encourage contributions from scholarly and pure research, as well as developmental, applied and pedagogical research. In addition to established scholars, we welcome and are supportive of submissions from new contributors including doctoral researchers. We seek contributions engaged with, but not limited to, these themes: -Art, visual art and research into practitioners'' methods and methodologies -Art , visual art, big data, technology, and social change -Art, visual art, and urban planning -Art, visual art, ethics and the public sphere -Art, visual art, representations and translation -Art, visual art, and philosophy -Art, visual art, methods, histories and beliefs -Art, visual art, neuroscience and the social brain -Art, visual art, and economics -Art, visual art, politics and power -Art, visual art, vision and visuality -Art, visual art, and social practice -Art, visual art, and the methodology of arts based research
