Abstract

In the traditional Chinese philosophy and aesthetic, 'nothing' is a profound concept. The aesthetic of Zhuangzi and Buddhist schools has strong 'original nothing' color, which stands on the self-examination and the extrication of the super examination nature, the original nothing theory of the difficult position of human life and is deduced into the art to become the aesthetic rule of the art compass and the art construction. Meanwhile, the art communication of 'nothing' shows that the 'original nothing theory' and the 'existence theory' of the Chinese aesthetic are dialectically united. That some people use the 'none consciousness' concept of the modern Western psychology to explain the aesthetic rule of the accidentally paying attention of is good under the influence of Zhuangzi and Buddhist schools is certain misunderstanding of the 'original nothing theory' spirit of the Chinese aesthetic.
