This booklet makes a speciality of a size of paintings which the philosophical culture (from Plato to Hegel or even Adorno) has constantly missed, such used to be its dedication – specific or implicit – to mimesis and the metaphysics of fact it presupposes. De Beistegui refers to this measurement, which unfolds open air the distance that stretches among the practical and the supersensible – the gap of metaphysics itself – because the hypersensible and express how the operation of artwork to which it corresponds is healthier defined as metaphorical. The circulate of the publication, then, is from the classical or metaphysical aesthetics of mimesis (Part One) to the aesthetics of the hypersensible and metaphor (Part Two). opposed to a lot of the historical past of aesthetics and the metaphysical discourse on artwork, he argues that the philosophical worth of paintings doesn’t consist in its skill to bridge the distance among the practical and the supersensible, or the picture and the belief, and display the practical as proto-conceptual, yet to open up a special experience of the practical. His goal, then, is to shift the place and role that philosophy attributes to artwork.
