Summary: | 碩士 === 國立清華大學 === 藝術與設計學系所 === 105 === This thesis, using Merleau-Ponty's theory on perception, explores landscape-related art works and aims to provide new perspectives on viewing the landscape.
Chapter one points out the limits of viewing the landscape as set out by Descarte’s and Newton’s theories. There I raise a question: is there such a landscape painting where the viewer and the painted scene are not divided? Chapter two finds out that the painted figures might keep the viewer from the painted scene, and thus turns to some other landscape painting that depicts no human figures. Chapter three tries to interpret Merleau-Ponty's idea about a structure of the event and a virtue peculiar to the scenario、the lived perspective、the active manner of being. Based on the conclusion drawn from chapter three, chapter four illustrates the conclusion with three specific landscape-related art works.
This study thus provides new perspectives on viewing the landscape: if we view the landscape representations giving up the idea of the viewer and the painted scene, then we allow our entire body to perceive the landscape as whole and surrounding.
