Determinants of a Work of Art: a Continuum of Images

Summary/Abstract: A work of art exists through images. The determinants of a work of art seen as an image are the following: vision; the carrier of the image, the object produced and/or the chosen artefact; the surroundings of the carrier, in which it is placed; the functional context of the work the “subject” of the image, i.e., what is seen, the thing portrayed in the image; the world of the “subject” of the image; the onlooker, the viewer of the image; the “ideatic” context of the image, and of its subject in particular (“the world of ideas”). Essentially, the category of “image” determines the character of a work of art. Yet on a more basic and original level, it determines the very way the human world exists, and human beings themselves. Thus art becomes significant for human beings.
