Art Is A Promise Of Happiness
When we look at the ideas of Walter Benjamin about reproduction of
art, relations between art and technology, we reach to a point which has
negative views about reproduction and technological advances about art.
With the newest technological advances, artists and techniques,
almost every artwork can be reproduced by some other artist sor
computers. We can find Mona Lisa on the Wall of a cafe, or we can put
Monet’s ‘’Impression, Sunrise’’ painting on our flats Wall. But when we
do these things and make more reproductions, Walter Benjamin claims that
it’s harming the real, original artwork. Because according to this
logic, it has not the same emotions and feelings in it. Ofcourse we can
understand, we can feel things about reproduction but it’s not consisted
by the same aura.
According to Benjamin’s ideas, true happiness is real art it’s mean,
every art which not fake, not copy made by real artist. But almost none
of us have the original artworks and reproductions are harming
happiness of art. We just have which systems offers us. Nothing more.
