Sanatçının yaratıcılığı ya da yaratılışa tanıklığı üzerine bir değerlendirme

Abstract

Art is a way, gratitude and expression of participation in being, love of being, and love of God. Either we realize the art of being ourselves as humans, that is, the art of being a perfect man, or we realize another work of art; it means that we try to make the divine substance appear in both what we try to transform and in ourselves. It can be claimed in this ontological meaning criterion that art takes man into peace, and into the presence of God. It is at that peace and presence of God that creation and love, beauty and good, beauty and love or all of them are one and the same and hence art is both an aesthetic and ethic tevel. This article is an experiment on esthetics based on an ontology that makes it possible for us to tackle art as an activity on this level. The ontological, ethical and aesthetic dimensions of creatioji were analyzed a long side with concepts such as being, love, witness, reciprocal witnessing and existence, being at peace, emanation, participation, imitation, and gratitude.
