AN IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH IN THE ANADOLU UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF FINE ARTS, STUDENTS SUMMER SCHOOL- 2008

摘要

In our age, which is dominated by speed and technology, people are getting alienated from themselves and nature. Especially the mechanic life led in big cities takes us away from the humanist values. Art, one of the important humanist values, is of great significance today. It is a global language strengthening all the human feelings and emotions. Herbert READ emphasizes the importance of art saying “In every stage of civilization, people have always felt that the behavior that we call scientific is not enough. People can copy only the objective events with their mental thinking capacity. However, beyond the objective events, there is another world that can only be approached with instinct and presentiment. This perception which is regarded more complex is the aim of art. We cannot understand human and human history until we really realize the supremacy and significance of the information that art offers. Art is extraordinary information because we encounter art everywhere and it is universal while what we call as scientific or philosophic is not permanent, proved to be momentary.”
