Art is “a priori” knowledge. It is independent of experience and experiment. I see no harm in calling this -the first metaphor in the audience – the “set of premises” Art shares itself with the viewer to the extent that s\/he perceives it. The plastic value of the art work is proportional to the level of perception. Following this logic, we arrive at the conclusion that the knowledge of art is still hidden in art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndependent of the style, art is a reflection of nature. For human beings, who are all doomed to die, art must be the essence or the pure knowledge which is hidden in nature. Hidden knowledge that people cannot or prefer not to perceive can only see the light of day with the power of exploration and interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoot and metamorphosis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat do we see when we integrate this theoretical framework with the Anatolian heritage?
