Unlike the pictorial and stylistic forms of painting, one finds that over the past 500 years there has been a high degree of continuity in the meta–theoretical conception of the `signs' of art: the signs of art can only be adequately defined and evaluated as iconography, but not with regard to any internal requirements for a creative work. Thus the question remains as to how the signs of art and the qualification as art are constituted. In the light of 20th century experience, the following reflections on an art history of creativity shaped by institutions explore core relationships and links flagged by the keywords ambivalence, dogma, destroying, and unlearning.  \nkeywords: Creativity, fine arts, intentionality, academy, semiotics.  \n1. DiVering Assessments of Creativity and the Creative: Profanisation and Everyday Sacralisation of the Artist as Transgressor of Limits  \nAccording to leading design theorists, founders of academies, educators, and `programmatists'—from Federico Zuccari to the Bauhaus and the Ulm School of Design—the fundamental essence of art does not change; it is hermetic, unfathomable, and unknowable as a matter of principle. The signs and indications of art and the qualification as art are held to be ambivalent. This has two sides—a public and an internal one. The internal side is that even without meta–linguistic verbalisation or substantiation, any connoisseur is capable of recognising the signs of qualification as art, including gradations, graduations, and foundations, which is what makes him or hera connoisseur. The other, public side stands fast by its opinion, firmly and ostensibly unswervingly, that no theory exists for this, no doctrine, nothing overarching, and there is scant evidence for any generalisation heuristics or at least none that could enable an inductive determination.  \n48 Hans Ulrich Reck  \nIn line with this is the genealogy of the concept of the academy, which has exerted such influence on the modern era, the outlines of which were laid down by the first major institutions of this type: the Accademia del Disegno established 1563 in Florence by Giorgio Vasari, and the Compagnia di San Luca artists' guild in Rome that Federico Zuccari reorganised into an art academy in 1593, the Accademia di San Luca. In the beginning formulas and concerns were surprisingly simple. The eVective reduction of the debate about art that has taken place since then, in which there has been a partitioning–oV of the precepts of connoisseurship from, by contrast, a proliferating discourse about the aesthetics of art and the rhetoric of its works against the outside, is only comprehensible if one considers the entire context in all its facets. Vasari's sole concern was to advance the appreciation and recognition of artists in a public sphere that had changed while at the same time preserving the artists' obligation to a relatively limited circle of powerful people and an elite that commissioned artworks. Put diVerently, Vasari sought the emotive participation of the public in an altered concept that was never properly brought to their conscious attention. This had an enduring impact on the image of the artist as well as on the artist's role, but particularly on the `new' claim, justified on the grounds of innovation or acceleration, to a changed and expanded range of action within society.  \nFunction, design, characteristics, and casting of the artist's role were redefined and established for the ultimate purpose of upwardly re–evaluating the artist, who then became eVectively disengaged from artisanry.
