Özet
Ethics and beauty have been neglected subjects in modern artistic and architectural discourse. These essential
dimensions have been replaced by performative qualities and a manipulative aestheticization. As visual image
and techno-economic criteria have replaced existential concerns, mental meanings, experiences and the
sense of empathy have been lost. However, beauty and reason are valid criteria in art, architecture as well
as science. Beauty is not an added aesthetic surface value, as it expresses the coherence, wholeness and
integrity of the work. We should even acknowledge the existence of an aesthetic intelligence along with
ethical, emotional, spiritual and existential intelligences.
Art and architecture are modes of existential thinking about the world and the human situation. They need
to create a temporal continuum, an existential tradition, and also include the bio-cultural and evolutionary
dimension in their truly humanist visions.
