人类始终追求事物的终极意义,不满足于一般层次的解释,因此,导致了艺术与科学的产生。科学追究事物的本源与原理;艺术追求事物的形式性及象征意义;设计则追求事物的有用性与形式性的结合,而呈现新的有用的或有意味的事物。所有这些活动,都是人类为突破被遮蔽而呈现的阶段性努力。本文正从此角度重新解读“艺术与设计”,并作新的句读。 Man has always pursued the ultimate meaning of things and is not satisfied with the general level of explanation, thus leading to the emergence of art and science. Science pursues the origin and principle of things; art pursues formal and symbolic meanings of things; and design pursues the combination of usefulness and formality of things, presenting new useful or meaningful things. All of these activities are phased efforts that mankind has taken to cover the breakthrough. This article is from this perspective to re-read “art and design”, and make a new sentence.
