description | The attainment of the humanistic spirit of traditional Chinese culture was mainly through rites and musical enlightenment. The spirit of Chinese culture concerns ethics and art. A good combination of moral and art education is the highest state of moral pursuit and artistic pursuit, as well. In the context of Chinese culture and art, music is more than a means to satisfy a person’s physical appetite; it also serves to inspire people to cultivate a sound and complete personality. No art form can exist in isolation. Art should express the subject consciousness of individual artists and, more importantly, the common pursuit of all human beings. Such a philosophy should be reflected in every piece of artwork. The social guiding role of aesthetic education is a key feature of Chinese culture and there has been a civilizing influence pervading all aspects of Chinese culture and art. In a profound way, traditional Chinese art conveys the mental outlook and joy of Chinese culture. The fundamental humanism of Chinese culture is demonstrated in every aspect of Chinese art, which collectively highlights Chinese people’s tastes and cultural pursuits. Therefore, it is easier to approach truths through art. |
