DESCRITIVO:

The research is an understanding of the phenomena of significance, as that which defines the work of art, observed through three different types of art: architecture, painting and sculpture. Comprehending architecture as an art, the connections between the arts, and the new paradigms that are emerging as a new art (that sees no distinction between the three arts), is a way of critically understanding and qualifying the artistic creation, in order to clarify common grounds and define a series of properties, values, qualifiers and principles that sustain the meaningful creation and ground human existence. Re-considering significance, from both within (design practices) and from without (meaning the observation from the outside of the observed perceptual phenomena) the artistic creation, philosophically, practically and aesthetically allows for new connections, new critical assessments, new perceptions, notions and new methods to come into being, that allow us to define significance (and the artistic object) in a new light. The aim of the research is thus to clarify what the significance artistic object is, which, as the work will show, develops consciousness (in both the creator and the observer) and is in fact at the core of the creation of a more sustainable world that helps humanity evolve into new realms of existence: psychologically, emotionally and spiritually.
