The idea that “aesthetics” is a philosophical discourse about art is in large part the fatal legacy of the reception of this text (Kant´s critique of the power of judgment). However Kant emphasised that there is no philosophical aesthetics. It is a “critique of reason, by reason alone”. A new philosophical account of the ontological specificity of human subjectivity - judgments, which operating under the conditions of a determinate concept, such as “art” or “painting”, are not aesthetically “pure”.p.42
This ignorance persist today in the widespread belief that it is the logical autonomy of pure aesthetic judgements of taste from other types of judgment that is the philosophical basis of the autonomy of art.p43. - “aesthetic autonomy” referring to the autonomy of art.
- the artwork´s production of the illusion of self-determination. - Adorno “dual character of art as autonomy and social fact” - the dialectal unity of art as autonomy and social fact
A radical distributive unity - irreducible relational - unity of the individual artwork across the totality of its multiple aerial instantiations, at any particular time. p.48.
No longer identifiable with either a physically unique instantiation or a simple se of reproducible tokens (readymades), the unity of the work becomes both distributive and malleable. (dehnbar) In its informality, its proliferations of artistic material and its inclusion of both preparatory and subsequent, documentary material within its conception of the work… p.50 footnote 41
