A obra de arte segundo Jean-Paul Sartre

Abstract

In this article we analyze the art from the perspective of Jean-Paul Sartre. From your work what is literature? We demonstrate how the arts are distinguished and why the writer can be more engaged than the other artists. For the French philosopher it is possible to say of significant art and non-significant art. Poetry, painting and sculpture are non-significant while literature, by dealing with signs, is significant. There is a common choice for all artists, however, the option for significant art as a way of unveiling the world has a deeper sense that Sartre sought to clarify. In addition, we try to show what makes a work of art an aesthetic object.
