Abstract

The thought of “aesthetic mind” originated from Taoism, deeply rooted in Chinese traditional culture, it has the significance of philosophical ontology and methodology, but also belongs to the research category of art, and the two are mutually external. It is precisely because of this point that the meaning of “aesthetic mind” is rich. The “mind zhai”, “sitting and forgetting”, “materialization” and “touring heart” in Zhuangzi’s thought play a key role in the development of aesthetic mind theory. Explaining Zhuangzi’s aesthetic mind theory from the perspective of art theory, exploring the modern value of classical art resources and demonstrating its modern significance can promote the development of art theory and enrich the discipline system of art science. It can provide inspiration and reflection for the study of art theory.
