Abstract

"United States" mean? May be a non-issue, because everyone may have the aesthetic experience, but do not have to know that "beauty" is defined. However, we should ask is: "aesthetic experience" of life, what effect or influence it? To be sure, beautiful things will be the role of aesthetic experience, and beautiful things of life should be a full, otherwise they will conflict, because "beauty" is substantial, and "ugly" is the United States of lack of such, or the United States has brought substantial cause of the lack of ugly, it not a contradiction! From which, in the beauty of life is a concern, because the aesthetic experience can not be a goodly portion of the person, or may be just a moment of passion, passion is only after the melancholy, would they fall into the life of the defects? "Care" is to enrich each other, and caring is the core of "love" in love can see, do and feel is beautiful! Therefore, the "love" and "beauty", is merged, and the unity of love and beauty that reflects the most obvious person is the "art." WHAT IS BEAUTY might not be a real question that demands an answer because everyone can have the experience feeling of the aesthetic sense of beauty; though not everyone has to know the definition of Beauty. What we want to ask is: What kind of effects or inferences can the experience feeling of the aesthetic sense of beauty acts upon man's life? It can be affirmed that beautiful things must be the effects of the experience feeling of the aesthetic sense; and they should fill man's life full. Otherwise, there will be contradictions brought out. Beauty is a kind of abundance; and Ugliness is a kind of deficiency. Had the abundance of Beauty brings out the deficiency of Ugliness, wouldn't it be contraction? Hence, Beauty is a kind of care for man's life. The experience feeling of aesthetic sense of beauty cannot be considered uncertain, otherwise it probably is just a passion for the moment that which passed only left depression. Wouldn't that result in dropping a flaw of life? To care is exactly to be abundant for each other, and the core of care is Love, in which all whatever we see or feel is beauty. Therefore, Love and Beauty are precisely to become one. And the most apparent incarnation of the unity of Love and Beauty is Art
