Film i skepticizam - Kavelova „korekcija“ poststrukturalističke filozofije umetnosti
Film and Skepticism - Cavell’s „Correction“ of Poststructuralist Philosophy of Arts

Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this paper is the critique of poststructuralist theory of art, and particularly thesis about the avant-garde peace of art as a kind of transgression. As a starting point of thiscritique, the ordinary language philosophy developed by American philosop her Stanley Cavellis used, particularly his film theory. While poststructuralist philosophy was developed around the notion of ideology, Cavell interprets film and arts in general around the notion of skepticism. While poststructuralism, because of thesis about avant-garde as a kind of transgression within the field of ideology, is a kind of philosophy of negation, we point out that Cavell’s philosophy is a utopian theory of transcending of skepticism where avant-garde film has significant but not crucial place. Cavell’s thesis is used as a basis for re-thinking of modernism, which is in opposition to postmodernist turn realized by poststructuralism.
