 In the current circumstances, art has become luxury, luxury that most men can't get (...) In the past, art was a principle of knowledge which gave what was necessary to life and which satisfied physical and spiritual needs of man. Complete man created in contemplation and, creating, didn't divided from himself" write AA.K. Coomaraswamy ("Christian and eastern Philosophy of art", 1956). In this 51-minutes, Jean Annestay comes back on the traditional vision of art according to the famous and controversial Indian metaphysician.
What is the function of at? What perspectives do they offer to man? To the author, the goal of art is to make resonate a new dimension of man through the sacred of life. Art appears like a way of realization and sacred science, a method to access spiritual knowledge. Like every profession to traditional man, it is a base of inner work and meditation, a vocation inclined to reveal it on the way of reintegration of the being.
