Descripción
Sumario:In “Egyptian Art” (1927), Wilhelm Worringer, applied a great deal of his formalists theories – certainly from a binary logic- to approach ancient aesthetic manifestations. In the beginning the article exposes the geometry of the pyramid and the naturalism of sculpted figures: the ideas of the German historian about the presumed lack of feelings and artificiality of a culture. Towards the end it focuses on the Egyptian vegetal column and discusses the possible links with the realm of the private and the artistic fantasy. The article provides, as a conclusion, a way of seeing the writing of Worringer from the XXI century.
