Sztuka bycia poza sobą
An Art of Being Outside of Itself

Summary/Abstract: „The end of art” means that art is marked by finitude, thrown into finitude and given over to its presentation. Finitude implies a lack of totality, the impossiblity of closing one's being in oneself, and, therefore, the necessity of being in relation, of being outside of oneself. Art that presents finitude is an art of being outside of itself. This means that every time there is art, it exists as something other than itself. This structure of „being-as” seems to be one of the main effects and meanings of “the end of art”. These theses are developed by way of an analysis of Hegel, the Jena Romantics, Danto and Kosuth's text 'Art after Philosophy'.
