SENI SPIRITUAL DALAM KONSEPSI ESTETIKA SEYYED HOSSEIN NASR

Abstract

This article describes a method of spiritual dimension in understanding the nature of art. One of the ideas that emerged in the art world is the idea of the spiritual art conceived by Seyyed Hossein Nasr. Art is a spiritual view of creativity that once a form of art presupposes that actually has the dimensions or viewpoints that are not one-sided but two-way, i.e. physical viewpoint or exoteric and esoteric spiritual viewpoint. This study was conducted based on the hermeneutic readings to the texts of religious thought. The purpose is to find an aesthetic view of the artwork that builds upon religious values and how spiritual art form in the light of faith is placed in human life maqam among other arts. Spiritual art is not a choice but something that exists, which should be read through physical knowledge that real empirical.
