Aesthetic Philosophy of Art Resilience as a Global Art Movement and its Impact on Contemporary Interior Design

Abstract

Both creative and technical aspects of interior design are influenced by contemporary global art movements and trends. Some of these movements and trends are exaggerated to the point of fantasia, others are applicable, objective and influential to societal advancement, considering cultural identity and ruling standards. Of those trends that express the latter is Art Resilience, founded in Paris in 2014, the birthplace of most modern movements of the world. It was natural for the movement to influence modern and contemporary architecture and interior design concepts in terms of their creative and applied aspects. This is due to the movement’s interest in reestablishing the aesthetic values of artistic work and design, in light of the current cultural and social developments, the art resilience movement interprets the stage of perception and judgment on design as follows. A vision of all (ontology) appears where the subject (viewer) and the object (work) are one entity. At that moment, there is no space for a simple taste, but the life experience of both the designer and the recipient is reflected. Research Problem: • The emergence of some works of interior design express the taste of its interior designer without considering the ruling concepts and aesthetic dimension, also neglecting cultural heritage. All the aforementioned go against the Art Resilience movement’s concepts and must be highlighted. Research aim: • This paper aims to shed light on how this movement and its principles impacted interior design. Research Hypotheses: • Art is an expression of consciousness of existence, and beauty is its basis. • Interior design as an artistic product influenced by artistic and intellectual movements. • Interior design as a work of art is measurable and applicable. Research Results: • Both the artist and the designer are responsible for presenting their works under the aesthetics of art and design and not comical representations and personal passions without neglecting the personality of the artist and designer. • Art Resilience movement calls to the adaptation to cultural, social and political changes in art and design without ignoring the role of aesthetics and the basics of art and the preservation of cultural heritage.
