Some phases of Art from the Point of Evolution

在这项研究中，艺术是从进化论的角度来考察的。除了达尔文之外，进化论在从自然科学到文化研究领域的适应性现在都得到了证明，它提出了哲学问题。这三年来，我一直在研究“进化”的可能性，特别是从自然科学和艺术交叉的角度。首先，符号、隐喻、叙事的概念对于艺术的研究是非常重要的，所以我依靠法国哲学家保罗·利科来考察这些概念的演变。这一结果发表在付费Ricoeur的艺术解释学-主题变奏曲(北海道大学文学研究生院，研究系列3，北海道大学出版社，2003年)。另一方面，对于自然科学，原子和元素的经典概念似乎相互对抗，但事实上，它们是现代量子理论不可或缺的。因此，我努力理解物质理论从古典理论到现代理论的演变。从这一点上，我们可以比较狄拉克所谓的“负能电子”和伊夫·克莱因的“空虚”展览。这项研究最重要的结果是，我可以获得科学和艺术共同工作的观点。我已经在《国际美学年鉴》2002年第6卷(《物质的美学》，与Kitamura Tomyeuki合作)上发表了部分这样的结果，悉尼文艺学会杂志对其进行了评价(尤金尼奥·贝尼特斯，《文学与美学》，2003年第13卷)，所以我将在今年9月的同一学术学会的国际研究会议上作详细的介绍。

As for this research, art is examined from the point of the theory of evolution. Beyond Darwin, the adaptation possibility of the theory of evolution is now proved in the area from natural science to cultural studies, and it presents philosophical problems. These three years I have investigated the potentiality of "evolution", especially from the position where natural science and art are crossed.First, the conceptions of symbol, metaphor, narrative are very important for a study of the art, so I examine the evolution of these concepts depending on French philosopher, Paul Ricoeur. That result is published as Hermeneutics of Arts-Variations on a theme by Paid Ricoeur (Hokkaido University graduate school of Letters, research series 3, Hokkaido University Press, 2003).On the other hand, as for natural science, the classic concepts of Atom and Elements seem to confront each other, but as a matter of fact, they are indispensable for the modern quantum theory. So I make effort to understand the evolution from the classical theory to the modem theory about Matter. From that point we can compare the Dirac's so-called "the negative energy electron" and "the emptiness" exhibition of Yves Klein.The most important result of this research is that I can gain the point of view where science and art are made to work together. I have already published a part of such results in International Yearbook of Aesthetics, vol.6, 2002 ("An Aesthetics of Matter", in collaboration wit Kitamura Tomoyuki), and the Journal of the Sydney Society of Literature and Aesthetics made evaluation for it (Eugenio Benitez, Literature and Aesthetics, vol.13, 2003) so this September in the International research meeting of the same academic society I will make presentation in detailI.
