Abstract
The purpose of this study was to consider the learning element within art using Motomori Kimura’s thoughts about ‘Hyougenai’. First, I explored his thoughts on producing works of art during the early and middle years of his life. His main point of view was that the act of producing a work of art leaves its own lasting and crucial impression. Second, I understood that there is a deep connection between producing works of art and leading our daily lives. This meaningful conclusion I arrived at from the theory of ‘poiesis = practice’ which appeared in his thoughts during his later years. Based on the above I described how fundamental the production of art is in our lives from the viewpoint of theoretical research.
