From the Beginning of Aesthetic Theories of Art to Iannis Xenakis Mathematical Theories (The Inseparable Relationship between Music and Architecture)

Abstract

The definition of aesthetic and the evaluation of relationships between the atmosphere of music and architecture in past and modern time has always been of significant arguments in art arenas; in a way that in all eras there has been two major approaches toward the evaluation between music and architecture: a. schema approach b. conceptual approach. The main issue that this research has mainly discussed about is the atmosphere issue which is the most significant and most obvious aspect of the link between these two arts which is the cause of a deep relationship between the two topic from past to modern time. The purpose of this research which is done with the method of library studies and the assessment of thinkers in this topic is to enlighten the rules hidden in the two arts of music and architecture; and on the way for understanding the conditions of inspiration of artists from nature and mathematics to create their art works, the hypothesis of the great musician and architect, Iannis Xenakis, are used. The result of this research announce that there has been always a deep conceptual relationship between music and architecture from the time before modernism till now and these two arts have been always carrying united contexts.
