Time in the Plastic Arts
1. The categorization Art of Space and Art of Time is outdated. This dichotomy found its origine in Kant’s philosophie that place Time over Space. Time is attached to the internal, to thought and space to the external, to the body. For Etienne Souriau this conception misleads the understanding of plastic art works by taking the temporal dimension away.
2. The main difference between this two constructed group of arts lays in the way they use time. In art of space for exemple, the succession of moment that you find in a piece of music or a theatre, can be find in what Souriau called a “time of contemplation”. This temporal dimension is necessary to the understanding of the sculpture for example.
