LATİF Tokat

Abstract

Religion, moral and art are the disclosures of Holy. Why does the art exist? Is it an imitation? Or is it an expression? What is the meaning of artistic activity? Can we reduce it to
moral or some practical, sociological, psychological and religious utilities? Art as a humanly phenomenon is transcendental. Religion is a disclosure of Ultimate Reality directly.
Ultimate Reality shows itself indirectly in moral and art. We can not reduce art to something else. Whatever its content is, all of art styles are religious from the point of the nature of art. Art reveals us something that otherwise we can not reach it.
