AESTHETICS, COMMUNICATION AND THEORIES OF RECEPTION

This text analyses theories of reception, i.e. the aesthetics of communication within the art and media studies. Realistic, antirealistic and productivistic theories of reception, i.e. essentialist, ontological and relativistic, constructionist theories of reception were distinguished. Theoretical systems that treat piece of art as a source of communication are presented, for example: cognitive aesthetics (Ernst Gombrich), hermeneutics (Hans Robert Jauss), analytic aesthetics (Nelson Goodman), theory of the open art work (Umberto Eco), phenomenology (Maurice Merleau-Ponty), structuralism and poststructuralism (Roland Barhes), and also contemporary, interdisciplinary theories of vision and visual culture (Jonathan Crary, Norman Bryson, Martin Jay).

MEDIA AND INTERDISCIPLINARITY: CAGE & ALTHUSSER

The paper is trying to mark a moment in the Western intellectual history when the transformation of the notion of aesthetical occurred, i.e. the place where the notion of aesthetical has not been used any more in the context of art and traditional aesthetics but rather mass media society and culture analysis. Therefore the relation between John Cage’s music and Louis Althusser’s philosophy is analyzed for it brought about the turn from ontological toward constructionist characterizations of art, culture and society.
