Abstract

Art is not an abstractive  activity, it is a philosophy with its own terminology and content, in which some philosophers have seen two directions: 1. Forms, colors, sounds existing as sensations and 2. Elements reflecting the spiritual life that became the subject of philosophical reasoning and the basis for the various directions of visual art. The philosopher H. Spencer, for instance, developed the theory (term) of “play” as the essence of culture, which to a certain extent echoed the philosopher Kant’s theory of antinomies. Thus, art is a source of spiritual information, i.e. it is connected with thinking, and this is philosophy, Where the connection between a person’s conscious and subconscious is clearly visible – as we have  reasoned in this article.
