You are the most important .

Immanuel Kant is almost funny, because he must have adopted the Gospel of Jesus . where its said that man is saved, not by WORKS, but by faith . Kant copies (imitates) the the Gospel and says, critique of art, is done on a whim not by craft . Is Kanth here preaching another Gospel ? Toward the end of the lecture Nerdrum says that Kant brought down the Tower of Babylon of classicism, in so doing, created a new tower of babylon that is "the modernists" . Whatever Babylon is at a given time, dont be part of it, let them have it . Do you have to sell your soul, to sell commerce to the world ? Is the system, replacing faith God ? If so its Babyon For it is written 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

All od clones. Stating only one path to create a masterpiece. Quite twisted really

I didn’t realize the poison went this deep…

And we do have a problem in the arts as that started with Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Judgment. The lack of a psychology of the unconscious mind led to the belief that a child’s drawing was art, created from a preborn talent untainted by empirical knowledge. Actually, a child’s daring is a first stepin learning how to draw, while empirical knowledge leads to the mastery we call the art of drawing, which is a big step above an amateur. A cement angel on a church step is a sculpture, but it is not the art of sculpture. Today we make a fetish of amateur art but that remains a marketing tactic to benefit vested interests, and won’t stand the test of time.

Jeg skjønner ikke Odd Nerdrum, men jeg setter enorm pris på han og det faktum at jeg ikke forstår han! En stor mann.

Wenn Odd Nerdrum nicht so ein verbohrter Ideologe wäre und in einer nordisch-fantastischen mythologischen Art malen würde, könnte er durchaus als einer der Besten angesehen werden. So ist er leider nur ein sehr guter Maltechniker. Schade. In der Kusntwelt wird er nicht so richtig eingehen.

It's a shame it's not translated.

Need english subs please :)

😢😢😢😢

Add subtitles, please!

Takk for at du la ut denne videoen. Odd er definitivt en dyp tenker og en ekte intellektuell kunstner.

Det er vel motsatt (1:07) , at det var all verdens ulykker som slapp ut av boksen, ikke det som gir verdier? Slik sett er ikke håp nødvendigvis noen positiv verdi. Dersom det oppfylles vil det ikke kunne finnes, heller... Det gode/lykke blir fraværet av det smertefulle, et fravær som ikke lengre finnes. Sier vel forøvrig også litt om hva Nitzsche tenkte om estetikk og kristendommen. Også Spinoza i hans metafysikk, har et noe lunkent forhold til håp. For ham er det et passiviserende affekt, og ikke noe som bringer en nærmere Gud.

Dette var virkelig bra og lærerikt...Tusen Takk ❤

Any chance we might see a subtitled version, or translation of this for the English-speaking world?

Takk!

Subtitles, please 👏

All great art in the last hundred years is art that has been hyped regardless of quality or meaning, hype equals value.

I doubt modernist artists or historians know anything about Kant.

With all do respect, just because some artists dont choose to follow in the tradition of rembrandt doesn't mean its lesser art.

kitch

I thought Nerdrum will came out from his building levitating.

Once you learn the Alchemy of these materials you can take that knowledge anywhere with anything. Matter speaks.

Awsome video. 🌹 To me it explains it all. Why i feel the way i do in contact with modern art, modern music, messed up opera preformences. Our so called modern architecture, our litterature and so on... What would this wirld be withiæiut painters as Nerdrum and his high class painters from the past, out outstanding litterature from the past, our classical componists from the past and more... we had been a poor humanity. Indeed we would. Tusen Takk Nerdrum for at du deler din Sannhet som er VÅR Sannhet ❤

I love this story ❤

Kant talked a lot about Duty. Is there a link between duty and bad art?

For some reason the art police accepted everything I have painted, no matter how amoral or unethical it was, and this forced me to research Kant the more and agree with what you are saying - that is to say, to find better inspirations to create art that would be of more value, which would be inspired by Kant, inspired by Hume and so on. Thanks for your lecture!! Best wishes from Reykjavik, Iceland!!

Magnetic presentation ❤

You have articulated my soul's journey. Suffering under the 'modern' trend as a teen who had just discovered Rembrandt (a prairie boy from the plains of Canada where this was not the curriculum), I continued studies in music (which also was under attack from those same police). Zeus! This was a rape of a potentially ever-evolving culture and aesthetic. You are the mentor for whom I sought all my life. Your work and presence give me hope. No longer do I care about my age; damn the torpedoes!💐

I agree with Odd. As a 73 year old I think that vision of an Archetype generally comes when one ages and matures.

Super

Excellent lecture!

The students are learning pure affectation, embarrassing melodrama, and setting maudlinism as a goal. Not how to paint well or create good pictures.

A luxure have Sir. Scruton.. he nourish us with beauty, thank you❤

That was eye-opening! I recently wrote a post in social media "Realistic painting is nowadays only allowed in old paintings". I've always loved kitsch, I guess, pop-art, illustrations, and above all old masters like Leonardo, Rembrandt and others. In fact skilful drawing and painting, the ability to do that well, the same way good musicians or dancers can do it well, play an instrument, sing well or dance well. Because they are born with that skill and have trained it even more, as far as it goes.

Vamos!!!

...11th virtue, we are all a bunch of pseudo-intellectuals pretending to be real artists.

Thank you for the video. It's interesting to hear you lay out the philosophy behind your painting. I disagree with the notion that Kant believes an artwork should be judged solely based on a "whim". It's true that Kant allows for a subjective reaction in what he calls "the agreeable" reflective judgement, but he then goes on to state that an artwork should aspire to go beyond this to a level which contains an objective truth - the "good, the "beautiful", and even the "sublime". Based on Kant's focus on moral objectivity, it would seem logical that he applies a similar framework to the judgement of artwork. Perhaps the confusion arises from his ideas of "subjective universal" judgments which allows for the introduction of new ideas of morality that the judge believes "ought" to be universal. It is then not surprising that bad actors could use this wiggle room to see what they can get away with based on a lazy interpretation. However, I believe Kant held himself to a higher standard and intended for these moral explorations to always have the Categorical Imperative as their standard. Thus, I disagree with your claim that Kant has destroyed the common language. If such a state exists, which I think is very debatable, it is the result of a misinterpretation of Kant's work.

Probably one of the most important videos on this platform for me right now.

I see there is a CD collection on the shelf, I wonder what music there is on them. Classical music I guess, I know Nerdrum like classical music.

I admire the sincerity of this approach but it seems overly dogmatic. They are essentially saying there is a formula for a 'masterpiece' and they know exactly what it is. I mean this respectfully but it seems arrogant and misguided.

Kant, Hegel, and Marx?? wow now I understand why horrible art is popular. they basically rationalized that objective quality was useless or nonexistent. They genuinely believed there was no such thing as a master painter, no need to distinguish between better or worse art. because some ideas are so stupid only an intellectual can believe them.

I randomly happened to come across your paintings online around 6 months ago. You inspired me to begin oil painting. For the last 6 months I have been learning all I can about it. I am working on a painting now that is heavily influenced by "Sisters" . Thank you.

Love it.
