Pierre Bourdieu on Aesthetics - Dictionary of Arguments

I 57
Aesthetics/perception/Bourdieu: Aesthetic attitude: with the aesthetic approach, it is recognized that every legitimate work of art effectively asserts the forms of its own perception. However, this does not imply that a certain mode of perception is assumed. This would mean succumbing to the illusion on which the artistic legitimacy is based. Rather, it is a question of measuring all social actors, whether deliberately or unintentionally, against these norms.
>Artwork/Panofsky

I 59
Art contemplation/Bourdieu: From now on, viewing art must - if it is not to appear as merely a decisionist and thus suspect affirmation of this absolute power - contain a reflexive moment of scholarship, which may well be detrimental to the illusion of direct enlightenment....
I 83/84
Barbaric Taste/Kant: The taste is still barbaric at any time, where it needs the admixture of the stimuli and guides for pleasure, even making them the yardstick of his applause.(1)
>Taste.
I 85
Bourdieu: A piece of reality worthy of being immortalized, glorified by holding on to it. This is the basis of that "barbaric taste", which... only acknowledges this one thing: the realistic, i.e. the respectful, modest and obedient representation of objects that are predestined for this purpose by their beauty and their social significance.
