It is horrible to walk through a picture or sculpture gallery where completely unrelated subjects appear side by side. Painting lost meaning when it passed from something for church or home to an isolated phenomenon. If we paint or view a picture in a frame, we can imagine ourselves looking out through a window. But to paint for exhibitions—this is beyond discussion. An age which sees value in exhibitions has lost its connection with art. By this can be seen how much waits to be done in culture if we would find our way back to the spiritual-artistic. Exhibitions must be overcome. Of course some individual artists detest exhibitions. But today we live in an age when the individual cannot achieve very much unless his judgment grows out of a world-conception permeating fully free human beings; just as world-conceptions permeating people in less free ages led to the rise of genuine cultures. Today we have no real culture.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture VI","site_heading":"Painting and the Spiritual Radiance of Color","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Im Grunde genommen ist es ja das Schrecklichste, durch eine Bilderausstellung zum Beispiel oder eine Skulpturausstellung zu gehen, wo alles mögliche durcheinander hängt oder nebeneinander steht, was gar nicht zusammengehört, wo es eigentlich sinnlos ist, daß das eine neben dem andern ist. Indem das Malen den Übergang gefunden hat vom Malen für die Kirche zum Bilde für das Haus, schon da, möchte ich sagen, verliert es den richtigen Sinn. Wenn man in den Rahmen hinein etwas malt, kann man sich wenigstens noch vorstellen, man schaut durch ein Fenster heraus, und das, was man sieht, das ist draußen, aber es ist schon nichts mehr. Aber nun gar für Ausstellungen malen! Man kann nicht weiter darüber reden. Nicht wahr, eine Zeit, die überhaupt in Ausstellungen etwas sieht, etwas Mögliches sieht, hat eben den Zusammenhang mit der Kunst verloren. Und Sie sehen einfach an dem, was alles an geistiger Kultur zu geschehen hat, um wiederum den Weg zum Geistig-Künstlerischen zurückzufinden. Die Ausstellung zum Beispiel ist durchaus zu überwinden. Gewiß, bei einzelnen Künstlern ist der Abscheu vor der Ausstellung vorhanden, aber wir leben heute in einer Zeit, wo der einzelne nicht viel vermag, wenn nicht das Urteil des einzelnen in eine Weltanschauung eingetaucht wird, die wiederum die Menschen so in ihrer Freiheit, in voller Freiheit durchsetzt, wie einstmals in unfreieren Zeiten Weltanschauungen die Menschen durchsetzt haben und dazu geführt haben, daß wirkliche Kulturen entstanden, während wir heute keine wirklichen Kulturen haben.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":255,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/276/1923-06-09/p028"}],"english":["GA 276/1923-06-09/p036"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"partial","length_check":{"de_words":255,"en_words":168,"ratio":0.66,"partial":true},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.74,"band":"short","note":"This witness is materially shorter than the original (below 75%).
