However, there is no inquiry considering the aesthetics underlying these technical examinations. This is so strange, because technical examinations, which emphasize material aspects of artworks and authors' productive processes, inevitably come into conflict with contemporary aesthetics in Japan. As we well know, from the notion of intentional experience in phenomenological aesthetics, contemporary Japanese aesthetics does not regard artworks as mere material objects, and it put large emphasis to viewers' experience and actualization of artworks. Therefore, we must suppose that technical examinations presuppose a completely different type of aesthetics from contemporary aesthetics in Japan. The aim of this paper is to make clear the aesthetics underlying technical examinations. My hypothesis is that two kinds of "scientific" aesthetics, currently ignored by Japanese contemporary philosophers and art critics, might support technical examinations. The first is aesthetics influenced by the philosophy of science (Currie 1989), emphasizing the process of art-making and authorial intention, and regarding it as similar to the theory-making process by scientists. I call this "author's aesthetics." The second approach is aesthetics influenced by the philosophy of information and evolutionary theories (Nussbaum 2004), emphasizing proper functions of artworks that allow them to survive. I call this process "functional aesthetics," which principally leaves authorial intention out of consideration and emphasizes the process of propagation of artworks. However, this also supports technical examinations, because it identifies material environments which make it possible to reproduce the proper function of artworks. In addition I suggest that there might be a third aesthetics which underlies technical examinations; the aesthetics of realistic painting.}, pages = {122--133}, title = {情報技術を用いた作品調査を支えている美学}, volume = {1}, year = {2010} }
