FRIDAY 20TH MARCH AT 6 PM CEGEN:" CONCERNING THE SPIRITUAL IN ART"

“Concerning the Spiritual in Art recalls the philosophy of Hegel. In fact, …Kandinsky’s text clearly echoes Hegel’s Aestethics, in which art had similarly been presented as a vehicle for the developing self-consciousness of spirit or Geist. The opening phrase of Concerning the Spiritual in Art –“every work of art is the child of its time”- is lifted almost verbatim from the Aesthetics.”
