Description
How does art turn into an idea and into reality? Why is freedom of creative self-expression the foundation of true art? Find out what the outstanding thinker thought about the beautiful in human life.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831) is a world-famous thinker, one of the creators of German classical philosophy. In his lectures on aesthetics, Hegel reveals the dialectical understanding of the beautiful in human life through artistic-figurative activity. And the idea of the beautiful in art—or the ideal—is that true aesthetic expression appears and is created only in free artistic creativity, giving the world works of art—that is, an idea as reality, shaped into a form corresponding to its concept.
