from Tokyo University 1S Art History Art History

  • It’s different from just Art Appreciation

    • It’s not just about appreciating art with a modern sensibility
  • It involves looking at things from a historical perspective

    • That’s the interesting part
    • Even with a single artwork, you can find the fascinating stories of its history, such as the intentions of the creator from 1500 years ago, the way it was appreciated 1000 years ago, the restoration methods from 500 years ago, or the traces of looting from 200 years ago, and so on
  • In other words, there’s no need to just enjoy the works in a museum as mere art (blu3mo)

    • There are many other interesting aspects to consider
  • It makes you wonder if future generations, hundreds of years from now, will find the contemporary exhibition methods/appreciation methods interesting (blu3mo)
