Plastic arts

Plastic arts are art forms which involve physical manipulation of a plastic medium by molding or modeling such as sculpture or ceramics. 'operated with the antinomy of terms plastic/pictorial, mechanically/ organically, finite/ infinite, and closed/accomplished. Schlegel stated that the spirit of the entire antique culture and poetry was plastic and that the spirit of modern culture, however, was picturesque (pittoresk)'.Venevitinov objected to the indiscriminate use of the term 'pictures'. In his use of August Schlegel's term 'plastic' (plastisch, plastika) he argues for a return to the simple, primitive, enclosed, defined, limited, finite, corporeal, and plastic world of the ancients. There seem to have been two interpretations of the plastic - picturesque contrast (antitheses) in Romantic Idealist philosophy. As Venevitinov uses the contrast, and as August Schlegel intended it to be used when he defined it in Lecture I of Vorlesungen über dramatische Kunst und Literatur, it denoted the difference between the corporeal mind of the man of antiquity and the 'picturesque' mind of modern man. Ancient art appeals directly to the senses, modern art gives rise to mental pictures or images. The former is therefore real and corporeal, the latter ideal.Saytour Torchons NîmesSarabande Musée des Tissus Lyon 2007-2008Milton Becerra Ale'ya Durban Segnini Gallery Miami 2009.La Ferté Bernard Festival Artec 2010Bois de Belle Rivière Québec 2010MasterCard/Visa (If it wasn't for plastic money I wouldn't have any money at all) Tyler Turkle, 2006, Poured Acrylic, 54 x 43 inches Plastic arts are art forms which involve physical manipulation of a plastic medium by molding or modeling such as sculpture or ceramics. Less often the term may be used broadly for all the visual arts (such as painting, sculpture, film and photography), as opposed to literature and music. Materials for use in the plastic arts, in the narrower definition, include those that can be carved or shaped, such as stone or wood, concrete, glass, or metal. The term 'plastic' has been used to mean certain synthetic organic resins ever since they were invented, but the term 'plastic arts' long preceded them. The term should not be confused, either, with Piet Mondrian's concept of 'Neoplasticism'. The oldest known plastic art date to (30,000–34,000 bp). In contrast to the limiting of 'plastic arts' to sculpture and architecture by Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling in 1807, the German critic August Wilhelm Schlegel (1767-1845) applied the concept not only to visual arts, but also poetry. Classical poetry lines he saw utilizing plastic isolation, and rhyme falling under the Romantic (domain). . In Schlegel's Viennese lectures (1809-1811), published in 1827 as On the Theory and History of the Plastic Arts, he contrasted the plasticism of Classical Art with picturesque Romanticism.
