00:00:16
now I would like to talk about the dispute
00:00:20
that took place in the
00:00:23
thirties in the mid-s of the 10th
00:00:26
century between the famous Germans
00:00:31
Walter Benin and Theodor Ador,
00:00:34
representatives of the so-called
00:00:35
Frankfurt school, that is, the movement of
00:00:39
German
00:00:41
intellectuals of the left, even Marxist
00:00:43
orientation, who created their own
00:00:45
original teachings Well, at that time, as
00:00:50
such, this theory had not yet
00:00:52
been formed, they were just friends, in
00:00:55
this case, Benjamin would have been
00:00:58
Odor
00:01:00
Le’s senior friend and In a sense, Benjamin was his
00:01:04
teacher And in the thirties It was already the
00:01:07
period of Nazism, both Benjamin and Dorna
00:01:10
were Jews and had to flee from
00:01:13
Germany, so both were in
00:01:16
exile and
00:01:19
Benjamin wrote texts in a journal of
00:01:22
social research that was
00:01:27
published by one of them
00:01:31
in New York, he was already in
00:01:35
New York before he was in Oxford. And Benjamin
00:01:38
was in Paris and in this difficult
00:01:41
situations Benjamin is actually entering a
00:01:44
very productive period, well,
00:01:47
historically the situation is very tense and
00:01:51
interesting. He needs to earn money by
00:01:53
writing
00:01:54
texts and he writes in particular. This is
00:01:57
his now famous work, one
00:02:01
of the main
00:02:03
manifestos of art of the 20th century, a
00:02:06
work of art in the era of its
00:02:08
technical reproducibility and for this
00:02:11
the text
00:02:12
Adorno first responds
00:02:16
with letters,
00:02:20
then Benjamin dies and
00:02:23
commits suicide during an
00:02:25
unsuccessful attempt
00:02:27
to emigrate, and Adorno throughout his subsequent life
00:02:31
returns to this polemic, to this
00:02:34
dispute,
00:02:36
therefore an important continuation of his thoughts
00:02:40
about this very art in the
00:02:42
era of technical reproducibility
00:02:43
is in the book about Dorno’s aesthetic
00:02:46
theory Well, I must say that this Dispute
00:02:50
was also central to the 10th
00:02:54
century, it is
00:02:58
VSK
00:03:00
practical historical meaning and an
00:03:04
intellectual
00:03:06
century in general, in many ways it is a century of art, an
00:03:11
aesthetic age. Let’s say the
00:03:13
10th century was in
00:03:17
Europe.
00:03:19
When Renaissance painting appeared,
00:03:22
also in the 10th century, firstly, there were OTK
00:03:25
absolutely new forms of art in
00:03:28
nono
00:03:30
secondly, the
00:03:32
previous forms
00:03:34
of art announced a
00:03:36
radical transformation of the Revolution and,
00:03:40
in general, laid claim to the
00:03:43
discovery of the real as
00:03:46
such, thereby fitting into this
00:03:50
general trend of the 20th century, the tendency of
00:03:52
passion for the
00:03:54
real, you know
00:03:56
about the concept of Avant-garde or something else the concept of
00:04:01
modernism at the beginning of the 10th century,
00:04:04
these pictures appear where nothing is drawn or
00:04:07
some spots are painted,
00:04:09
works appear that set their goals
00:04:11
to mobilize people for some kind of
00:04:14
activity, to castigate some kind of
00:04:17
reality. That is, art on the
00:04:19
one hand, ideologists of the world on the other
00:04:22
hand
00:04:25
avant-garde art arises, independent of anything, which very
00:04:27
often has an abstract character;
00:04:30
we are familiar with the names of Kandinsky, Malevich,
00:04:34
many of
00:04:36
their Western contemporaries, that
00:04:39
is, humanity
00:04:42
is gradually freed from being tied to a
00:04:45
sensual analog perception of the world
00:04:48
and reaches an absolutely conventional
00:04:50
abstract level of perception both in
00:04:53
science and in art art
00:04:58
abstract freedom of man And at the same
00:05:01
time, the penetration of man into the
00:05:05
infinity of the infinite essence of the world
00:05:08
in this situation,
00:05:11
art is closely intertwined with the
00:05:14
political revolution
00:05:16
and Many Avant-Garde artists
00:05:19
mentioned by Malevich, for example,
00:05:22
consider themselves the jurist of the Revolution
00:05:27
and are involved in political activities
00:05:31
in the service of this very
00:05:33
revolution in revolutionary Russia itself,
00:05:37
various aesthetic
00:05:39
trends of the school, these ideas
00:05:42
were naturally familiar to Western intellectuals, in
00:05:44
particular Ben Amin, who
00:05:45
traveled to Soviet Russia and was very
00:05:47
interested in its
00:05:49
aesthetics; at the same time, Benjamin
00:05:52
observed
00:05:55
global trends related to the technology
00:05:57
of art. With the development of cinema, in
00:05:59
particular photography, also to a lesser
00:06:02
extent,
00:06:04
he saw that indeed, in addition to
00:06:07
avant-garde movements and abstract
00:06:10
paintings, something else is happening, the
00:06:17
transition of art to the masses,
00:06:20
art is becoming not only in
00:06:23
Soviet Russia but also in
00:06:25
the West, a fact of the everyday
00:06:27
existence of a common person has
00:06:30
never happened before. That is, art
00:06:31
replaces religion to a certain extent, it
00:06:34
becomes such a universal
00:06:36
symbolic language thanks to the development of
00:06:38
cinema in particular. It is precisely this kind of
00:06:41
art, as Beniamin believes, that is
00:06:43
the most radical, that is, the avant-garde
00:06:45
is closing in on the trend
00:06:50
of mass democratization of art. In this
00:06:55
situation, there are nevertheless some
00:06:58
fundamentals and
00:07:01
the danger for Beniamin is
00:07:03
that you will treat this new
00:07:05
art just like the
00:07:07
old one. That is, they
00:07:09
deified it from all sides,
00:07:12
and walking around this work of
00:07:15
art and saying how
00:07:18
beautiful it is. This way of behavior,
00:07:21
Benjamin says, in relation to a new type of
00:07:22
art is completely inappropriate No
00:07:26
matter how abstract it may be or no matter
00:07:29
how
00:07:33
innovative it may be one way or another, it must
00:07:36
become a part of
00:07:37
life, an element of some activity and
00:07:41
not a fetish that hangs on the wall, and for
00:07:45
this
00:07:47
Beniamin says, you need to reject what he
00:07:50
calls aura, so He introduces this
00:07:52
concept of
00:07:53
aura, you need to reject the aura of a work
00:07:57
of art, this fr, as it were,
00:08:01
unusual originality, and so on
00:08:03
which was previously inherent in art and
00:08:06
instead, that instead, instead of
00:08:09
this, he says, art should, as it were,
00:08:12
immerse the mass into itself, and that is, one must
00:08:15
think of art not as a
00:08:18
piece of fabric on the wall, but rather as a
00:08:22
house, as an architectural work, for example, a
00:08:25
work Where you turn on, it
00:08:28
absorbs you and not you,
00:08:31
and this is the kind of
00:08:56
entertainment that immerses him in art,
00:09:01
the possibility of being absent-minded, unfocused
00:09:10
And in the world like this In some way utopian
00:09:15
Actually, the avant-garde text itself
00:09:17
is written by Benjamin, published in this
00:09:19
journal of social research in
00:09:21
New York and Adorno I repeat it by the student and
00:09:25
a friend writes to Him quite critical and
00:09:28
even
00:09:30
early
00:09:33
words from the point of view of Arn,
00:09:38
Benjamin
00:09:42
unreasonably criticizes autonomous as
00:09:45
he calls art, that is, art.
00:09:47
We would call it elitist art,
00:09:49
which is not accessible to everyone, radical
00:09:53
art
00:09:54
because
00:09:58
Privat shi works of
00:10:01
art of the present Yes, such an
00:10:04
authentic one speaks of dor not have auras
00:10:07
That is, for example, the music that he loves,
00:10:09
here is the atonal music of Schonberg, it is not auch, it does
00:10:12
not have this very aura, the same thing is
00:10:16
there Roman and Kafka Ador objects
00:10:21
that it is completely wrong to build an opposition
00:10:24
between mass non-auras
00:10:28
culture and
00:10:34
autistic is
00:10:36
intended, in general, for experts and so
00:10:38
on Ador calls it autonomous
00:10:41
art and so he says the music of
00:10:44
Schonberg and the novels of Kafka They are autonomous,
00:10:48
in general, at the moment, of course, they are
00:10:50
only interesting to connoisseurs and elites They do
00:10:54
not have a mass character And at the same
00:10:55
time they are not
00:10:57
outy But just some
00:10:59
Disney cartoon in NM there is more than
00:11:02
enough aura there, and there are princesses there, there
00:11:07
is a sentimental experience that
00:11:10
is given through very emotional music,
00:11:13
it all looks like an
00:11:15
aura. Not to mention the cult of stars,
00:11:17
for example, of
00:11:19
course it is a reduced Aura. But this is Aura,
00:11:22
that is, Benjamin
00:11:24
confused if the
00:11:26
aura
00:11:28
and I repeat, of course, in such a reduced and
00:11:32
vulgar form, this is precisely mass
00:11:33
culture, and
00:11:36
so Adorno contrasts
00:11:39
Benjamin with a slightly different aesthetics, he
00:11:42
says that I certainly share
00:11:44
revolutionary
00:11:46
impulses. I also believe that art
00:11:48
should be the property of the masses and that it
00:11:52
should not just hang on stack as a fetish
00:11:55
we agree and Aura is truly
00:11:57
a cult Aura about but unfortunately in the
00:12:04
torn unjust society in
00:12:06
which we live there is
00:12:10
only radical art modernism
00:12:12
which goes for experiments which
00:12:14
resorts to the aforementioned for example
00:12:16
abstraction but at the same time combines
00:12:19
this formal experimentation not with
00:12:22
expression with the expression of
00:12:28
bestiality through a formal
00:12:30
construction It’s just this kind of art
00:12:34
that has revolutionary utopian
00:12:37
potential, and mass culture talks
00:12:41
about Dorna, it obeys other laws.
00:12:43
It’s not that Yes, it’s
00:12:46
entertainment, it’s entertainment,
00:12:48
but it’s absolutely not necessary to
00:12:52
defocus our
00:12:54
lives mainly as a cultural industry -
00:12:57
this is the enjoyment
00:12:59
of a template, that is, this is how parts are planed in a factory
00:13:03
using a machine, that is, they are
00:13:07
all absolutely stamped the same, in the
00:13:09
same way a Hollywood film stamps
00:13:13
its images and it is this stamping. In
00:13:17
a sense,
00:13:19
people like it due to the fact that there
00:13:22
is an element in it what kind of forceful suppression is the
00:13:26
cultural industry - This is, in a
00:13:28
sense, the Triumph of form over content, the
00:13:31
suppression of matter,
00:13:34
and it carries a completely
00:13:37
repressive sadistic
00:13:40
meaning, embodying
00:13:42
power. Well, the impersonal power that capital
00:13:45
has in a capitalist society is
00:13:47
the state over the
00:13:50
individual and Chaplin’s films, which are so
00:13:52
loved after the Soviet ones
00:13:58
Formalin
00:13:59
Chaplin is a symbol of this sadis
00:14:05
monotonous stamped art
00:14:08
which actually makes a person
00:14:11
enjoy violence,
00:14:14
this dispute led to nothing except that
00:14:17
history It would seem that history rather showed that
00:14:20
Ador was right in the extreme, she went the way of Ador
00:14:24
You know that it was after the Second
00:14:26
World
00:14:28
War that the tragic collapse the split of
00:14:31
art into actually mass and
00:14:33
elite, that is, well, in the
00:14:35
twenties and thirties, it was just beginning
00:14:36
to emerge. But after the Second
00:14:38
World War, it is absolutely obvious that
00:14:40
some people watch arthouse, others go to
00:14:42
cinemas to watch mass films, this did
00:14:44
not happen before and I repeat, both of them. in
00:14:47
a sense,
00:14:50
he plans the twenties as a new
00:14:53
avant-garde art bringing a new
00:14:56
sensuality, but this
00:14:59
offensive split occurred. Although of course there are
00:15:00
transitions here and there, I repeat in
00:15:02
Hollywood films, tonal
00:15:04
music plays, but nevertheless, from the point of view of the
00:15:07
existence of this art, this does not
00:15:09
negate a fairly rigid border and
00:15:11
this, in a sense, is a catastrophe that
00:15:14
also reflects the socio-political
00:15:16
catastrophe that has occurred. Since then, there has been
00:15:19
a split in society and a rollback of democracy of
00:15:24
emancipatory ideas,
00:15:27
so we can say that neither Ador
00:15:30
won, he was right in that it is
00:15:32
in
00:15:34
art that I formally experiment in a way that is
00:15:37
incomprehensible to the masses there remains, as it were, a share of
00:15:41
truth and Freedom that is not very
00:15:43
present in mass
00:15:45
culture. But this is a
00:15:49
completely abnormal situation
00:15:51
and excuses about how things
00:15:56
will be different someday, but they are somehow not
00:15:59
very convincing; it is clear that mass
00:16:02
culture also needs to be saved. on the other
00:16:04
hand, arthouse, let’s say in cinema, is the way it
00:16:07
exists. Today
00:16:09
it is degenerating precisely because of its
00:16:12
isolation from the life of the masses and from the mass
00:16:16
audience from solving some large
00:16:18
historical problems. Well, the same thing, to a
00:16:21
certain extent, can be said about
00:16:22
plastic art, where As you know
00:16:26
no one draws pictures anymore, those who
00:16:28
paint pictures They are just working for a
00:16:29
mass audience
00:16:31
And the so-called contemporary art
00:16:34
is not like a spectacular spectacle for us, it
00:16:37
has its own
00:16:39
audience and is extremely interesting
00:16:43
and politically acute and democratic, but
00:16:46
unfortunately is divorced from some
00:16:48
any real life processes.
00:16:51
This is the split that
00:16:55
Benjamin Idon’s polemics caught and
00:17:00
formulated very well philosophically,
00:17:03
but this debate accordingly becomes more and
00:17:15
more
00:17:27
urgent with every decade of the deepening of this gap between mass and elite art.
