Since the birth of the 19th century sociology,The founders of classical sociology have paid attention to art problems。For example, Weber once regarded music as a unique representation of the Western world "rationalization",Zimeier has discussed the painting of Dutch painter Rembrandt from the perspective of life philosophy。Later Frankfurt School also conducted radical sociological criticism of the popular art of modern capitalist society。But until the second half of the 20th century,With Budier's "Literature Field" research、Becker's "Art circles" research, etc., and other milestone research appears,Art Sociology has really developed into an important area of ​​sociology。and in China,Since the Sociology Self -Restore Reconstruction,The first thing that cares about is actually labor、Family、Community、layered、flow、Organization and other more "hard core" issues。Comparison of comparison,Arts as a sociology,once appears more niche and edge。but,In recent years,With the changes in two aspects,Art sociology research in the Chinese society has gradually shown the trend of rise。

On the one hand,Sociologists start to literature、Music、Movie、Painting and other art forms,Poet、Painter、Novelist and other artist groups,Museum、Art Park、Film Studio and other art institutions,and the art market and consumption incorporated into the research field。"Sociology Research" and "Society" two important sociological professional magazines launched the "Art Sociology" and "Literature Sociology" topic in 2018 and 2019。In another aspect,Some literature、Scholars in the field of aesthetics have also begun to throw their attention to sociology,Calling the study of art must shift from philosophical speculation and aesthetic criticism to empirical research in sociological bet365 best casino games sense。They especially emphasize the use of sociological theoretical resources and methodology tools for art research,So as to bring new vitality to traditional art criticism or art history research。At the same time,Some classic works in art sociology,For example, "History of Art Society"、Budie's "Distinguishing: Social Criticism of Judgment Power"、Alexander's "Art Sociology" has also been translated to China in recent years。Among them, it is particularly worth mentioning that the translation forest version of "Art and Society" series,Editor -in -chief Liu Dong explicitly pointed out in the preface of the series,The basic form of art sociology should not be the traditional "beauty philosophy",but "in the strict sense、Sociology to study art as a social phenomenon "。With this understanding,This set of translated clusters systematically translated a group of important contemporary Western art sociology works,Especially experience research works,The discipline construction of domestic art sociology is developing a positive impact。From this,Two aspects together,Bringing art back to the field of society,It has created the first prosperity of art sociology in recent years。This article aims to make a brief combing and inspection of this emerging academic trend。囿 囿,Discussion only focuses on the theoretical research and empirical research of art sociology。

 Theoretical research: the new and old veins are with the same context

As far as theoretical research is concerned,On the one hand,Some traditional artistic sociology theory veins,For example, Benjamin、Written of Budel and others,Get further sorting and discussion。For example,Ma Xin conducted the three important texts of Benjamin Art Sociology from the relationship between technology and society.。Meng Fanxing focuses on a core concept of Ben Yaming Art Sociology "Ling Yun",Discuss the mechanism and conditions of Lingyun。Liu Hui carefully sorted out Budie's literary sociology。On the other hand,The new research context also enters the bet365 best casino games field of view of the Chinese world。For example,Lu Wenchao's theoretical perspective and research paradigm of modern Western new art sociology in recent years,Peterson's "Cultural Production"、Baker's "Art Circle"、Fan's "self -learning art"、"Cultural Ridge" of Griswald,I made a more systematic disconnection and comment。Based on this,He also reflects on the subject positioning of art sociology,On the one hand, it is pointed out that art sociology is facing the dilemma of "aesthetic intervention",On the other hand, it is clearly advocated that the aesthetics will be re -incorporated into the core of the research of art sociology。

The interesting thing is,The work in the theoretical research of art sociology is actually not promoted by sociologists,Instead, it is done by some scholars who do artistic theory or humanities research。The reason why these scholars have a clear discipline consciousness in the theoretical construction of art sociology,It is because of their opinion,The concept of art itself has undergone fundamental changes since modern times。As Peng Feng pointed out in an article,From 18th century to 20th century,People's understanding of "art" has gone through a process from Fu Mei to Celery。In other words,Art is no longer an overwhelming thing,And itself becomes a sociological problem。

 Experience Research: Two ways of complementation

Compared with these scholars,Sociologists' research on art is mostly at the level of experience,It also formed complementary the theoretical orientation of the former。Emerging experience research on art sociology can be divided into two basic ways: "understanding society from art" and "understanding art from society"。The former refers to the mirror of art itself as a society,Society in discussion of art works。This is a way to enter from the inside out。The latter refers to the product of artistic phenomenon itself as a product of society,Discuss how art phenomena are shaped by social structure and social factors。This is a way to enter from the outside。

About the previous way,Bet365 lotto review More representative research includes Ling Peng、Meng Qingyan about Peking Opera、Research on traditional opera and art and other traditional opera arts; Wang Jianmin、Chen Yunsong and others' research on the Tang Dynasty poets; Zheng Shaoxiong's research on Tibetan novels and movies。where,Ling Peng's research on Peking opera "Four Jinshi",It aims to discuss how "exotic people" in traditional society are integrated into social order through the role and plot of the play,to find a mechanism for delaying the "differential order"。Meng Qingyan inspected the history of cross talks in the history of nearly a century。He understands the cross talk as a social text,revealed the people's conditions and political changes presented by typical cross talk works in different historical periods。Wang Jianmin's research on "Poetry Buddha" Wang Wei uses the method of "knowing the world",Through the combing of its poems,presents the style of the Tang Dynasty and the people of the class of the scholars。Chen Yunsong and others meter analysis of the life history of more than 800 Tang Dynasty poets and their poetry achievements,It is pointed out that the theory of "the unfortunate poet of the country" cannot be established in the Tang Dynasty。Zheng Shaoxiong has discussed many of the novels and movies related to Tibet in recent years。For example,He carefully sorted out the novel "King Gesar", "Fighting", "Dust Ding" and "Empty Mountain",Then it reveals that this writer who has largely shaped ordinary readers to a large extent,How to construct the historical narrative of the Kang District of "Han Tibet",Especially the dual transformation of the time and space sense of the Kang District。In another article,Zheng Shaoxiong made a comparative analysis of the four Tibetan movies,Display these movies that reflect different geographical and cultural units in the Tibetan area,How to present politics、The interaction of market and society in the shaping of the people in Tibet in different periods。In this sense,Novels or movies bet365 Play online games are treated as "national" materials,that is, the historical process or social reality "representation"; research on novels or movies is not artistic criticism itself,Instead, it is designed to understand the change mechanism of Tibetan and Tibetan civilization itself。Although these studies above are based on Peking Opera、Poetry、Novel、Movie and other art forms are themes,But the problem of the problem is not limited to the art itself,Instead of trying to understand the social world it expressed and presents through art,The art itself is handled by the representation of society。As Liu Yaqiu discussed in an article,Literature can become the field of sociology,The above studies are actually viewed by art text as a field of sociology or anthropology analysis。

It is interesting to be interesting.,It is about to be understood by art in society,Examine the shape of the art itself。The problem of this way of entering the road is on the interaction between art and society,production of art、Consumption、Accepting and communication itself has become a social process worth analyzing。

In terms of the production dimension of art,Researchers for movies、Novel、Poetry、Dance and other art forms all discuss。For example,Yan Jun and Lepeng's investigation of the history of the rise and fall of a movie studio in Shanghai,revealing how the work mode of the factory is affected by the changes in the macro institutional environment and the changes in the social and economic structure,Eventually leading to film creation tend to be mediocre。In this study,Film creation is regarded as a "collective action" to analyze。Chu Huijuan's research on online literature aims to from the two dimensions of technology and law,Analyze the production mechanism of Internet literature and its change logic,Point out the tension between the two different imaginations of "scholars" and "Dream Factory"。Her research presents a complex industrial ecology around Internet literature,In this sense,May also be regarded as a research Bet365 app download on the "art system"。Liu Chang's research on the workers pointed out that the literary creation of this special literary group can be understood as a way to deal with their own social situations,Poets to construct themselves through poetry,Complete social adaptation。Zhou Yi's research focuses on the emerging square dances in recent years,From the meaning、Inspection of the three -dimensional collage and the same structure,and revealing how the formation and development of this popular art form was affected by the special generation of women born in the 1950s and 1960s。

As far as the consumption dimension of art is concerned,Fang Jun inspected the visual art consumption of the middle -class households in China's emerging cities。He found it through empirical investigations,Budier's cultural capital theory is not fully established under the Chinese situation,The artistic position is not directly related to the social class,and more affected by the occupational status group; the art consumption of the middle class is not due to the identity segmentation,but to get aesthetic experience。

In terms of art acceptance and communication dimension,Gan Feng and others examined the different popularity and changes of Chinese painters in Chinese and Western through big data methods,presents the different understanding and acceptance of art from Chinese and Western society from one side。Xue Longchun's case research on the Qing Dynasty Jinshi scholar Huang Yi revealed the academic elite、How to build a social network with information transmission and interactive functions,Therefore, to a large extent, the trend of the golden stone science of the Qianjia era was largely shaped。Although these two studies are not done by sociologists,but but have a distinctive sociological interest。

To sum up,Chinese art sociology is in the initial stage,But it has shown quite diverse and rich aspects。Bring art back to the field of society,Not only sociology breaks through its own discipline border、Seeking a reflection bet365 Play online games of the possibility of blending with other disciplines,It is also a response to social transformation and changes in the times。Vera Zelberg once said,"The fate of art sociology is closely related to the status of art in society"。can be foreseeable,With the prosperity of the cultural economy and the art industry,The development of art sociology in China will be more vigorous。
