Sull’ispirazione. Canone mai normato

Art is an inspiration of the idea—an atmosphere that allows the artist to share with others what characterizes him as a subject. Art, despite being the closest thing to the translation of the nou- less, remains immeasurably distant from it. In measuring myself in writing about it – which is an action for others, as Sartre argues, reminding us that being-for-others leads to a subjectivity that becomes an object for the other (Being and Nothingness, 1943) – it is worth saying right away that, although we may share this communal mission, it remains impossible to use an exact abstract scheme, i.e., one that is maximally objective, to describe my subjectivation in relation to the idea. But it is the very nature of the dualistic aspects (subject/object) underlying this reflection that is antithetical to a harmony with communicative purposes, directly external to the subject.
