Abstract

The recognition of the objects produced by popular class members as art objects corresponds to a historical process between the XIXth and the XXth centuries. Those objects were considered regarding their qualities as “revolutionary” and “anti-capitalist.” Among the architectural works, there were creative and fantastic images which concentrate a problem on the knowledge of popular images. The study of this question lies in two interconnected fields: 1) the artistic field, with its habitus and its rules; 2) and the field of folklore, with its own rules. In both, the knowledge of the image is limited because the proper meaning of the experience and its original imaginary are not discussed. This article seeks to examine this question, and the result is a proposition of three fundamental elements of the image knowledge, concerning art, imagination and aesthetic experience.
