To assert the cognitive value of art means not only to grant to art something that after all it is not interested in, but also to deploy expectations and issues that are extraneous to it. Philosophy ends up finding in art nothing but itself” (Mario Perniola, 20th Century Aesthetics, 58). This particular form of a more general issue concerning philosophical aesthetics manifests a tendency in philosophy to project its own exigencies onto its objects or topics. Much of the adventure of 20th century aesthetics has to do with the need or at least the desire to refuse philosophy, and aesthetics in particular, this circular privilege. In some cases philosophy simply becomes an art amongst others. Meanwhile art itself, in some of its 20th century forms, seems to encroach into philosophy too, to the extent that, as Perniola elsewhere argues, “it becomes quite problematic to determine what is art today” (Art and its Shadow, 55). This session raises the question of the movement between art and philosophy—is it a space of lability or confusion, of transformation or ruin?
