Estética y política en Jacques Rancière

Resumen

The french philosopher Jacques Rancière has developed an interesting thesis about the nature of images. In Rancière’s thought, the sense of images are the effect of a dialectical mouvement, an immanent process that has no reference to a metaphysical ground (Grund). Rancière’s critique of the concept of sublime, applied by Lyotard to some issues of contemporary art, denonces the ambiguity of the concept of «irrepresentability»; the thesis of Lyotard remains in fact an hegelian one and finally submits the aesthetics to ethics.
