Abstract

More focus is needed at faculties of fine arts on the quality and quantity of the philosophy education as well as on its methodology within the scope of “art philosophy”. It is a requirement that different methods and techniques should be used in arts education and that the students have competency in questioning and interpreting art works through different approaches. Do we need to use the language of philosophy in art philosophy lesson? Or does the use of the language of philosophy cause an uncertainty? Of course these questions may be increased and many answers can be found. However, for a more effective arts education we need to search the dialogues of Plato or the importance of Aristotle's Poetics. Students of the Faculty of Fine Arts should understand and grasp the qualities of knowledge which is the basis of philosophy instead of studying an intense education of philosophy. This would help them to analyze the place and importance of philosophy in arts. It is believed that the mutual interaction process between artistic image and scientific image and different disciplines will contribute to the aesthetical pleasure, judgement and behaviour of the students. In this context, we will attempt to find an answer to the question “how more can we take advantage of philosophy and readings in the education of arts philosophy.
