디지털 예술 시대에 있어서 헤겔의 미적 가상화 = Hegel's Aesthetic Appearance in the Age of Digital Art

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The fundamental principle of Hegel's art theory is aesthetic appearance. The aesthetic appearance is an ideological feature and an expression of truth in which the ideology of beauty has been revealed in a virtual form. Hegel, however, excludes matter and nature from aesthetic appearance regulations and places value on artwork with the concepts of spirituality, ideology, autonomy, and systemicity.
However, these aesthetic appearance regulations have been changed with contemporary art and face limitations. This is because modern works of art express materials and natural things, not mechanical necessity or spirit, as opposed to freedom. There has been the appearance of Benjamin's theory of photographic art, projects to clone an original artwork using 3D scanners and 3D printers, and paintings using artificial intelligence. Thus, the features of uniqueness, one-time, and historical characteristics that traditionally claimed the identity of the unique art have become meaningless. Such results indicate that Hegel's aesthetic appearance systemicity has to be changed accordingly.
In light of the above, this paper aims to examine and to state that Hegel's aesthetic appearance regulations, principles, and the systemicity of clinging to them should be changed.
