"...That art is a German concept from the 18th century is not known to everybody, nor how important Kant was for this concept.
All later influential ideas on art are comments (based) on Kant.
When Kant wrote the Critique of Judgment in 1790, it had been established for some 30 years that painting, sculpture, architecture, poetry and music constituted the new term fine art as opposed to the other groups such as the liberal arts and the mechanical arts. Now the job was to define the rules.
Kant won, and because of the omnipresence of his ideas, artists and art-historians are today quoting Kant without knowing it themselves. They believe in the importance of originality and the unimportance of skill – “it is when you do not know what you are doing, that you are creating art”, to quote Kant. Not to mention how Kant‘s aesthetic term “indifference” permeates all artistic production and writings about art; art must by no means turn sentimental or emotinal. This term is the origin of modern, flat painting as well as postmodern irony. The above mentioned is also the reason for artists like Anthony Gormley saying that figurative painters are “stupid” – they are unoriginal, skilled and often try to be emotional. Gormley knows he has the whole artworld in his back..."
