Summary/Abstract: The objects or faces of Rembrandt’s or Brancusi’s works discussed in this article, and the works of art at large do not belong to reality, nor are they aesthetic pretexts embraced by the imagination that transfigures them; they are appearances in the sense of intuition of a surreality in the poiesis area. Therefore, the work of art is not an effort to reproduce the model exactly, even less an objective production with aesthetic attributes, it is a poetic vision lived and thought by the artist, having the abstract (sometimes metaphysical) attributes of a surreality to which the imagination of its creator has access.
