HOW TO THINK THE ART?

Summary/Abstract: The author claims in the article that the technosphere denotes the last frontier of metaphysical thought within which both aesthetics as a philosophical discipline and the aesthetic are replaced by the concepts of aisthesis, figuration and visualisation after the end of all conceptualcategorical systems of thought about the essence of art from Kant to Hegel and Schelling to Adorno, still appear as relics of language and its onto-logical structure of telling «about» the world. Aesthetics emerged during the rise of rationalism and modern technology. Aisthesis, figuration and visualisation are conceptual tools that connects the thought of the technosphere and its world-forming «aesthetic objects». How else can we think of art that appears in the space and time of a picture without a world, with which «life» itself becomes aestheticised, and works of art lose the aura of beauty and sublimity as the fundamental concepts of aesthetics in general?
