Abstract:
The article analysis the use of the word “In-finishing” as a way of thinking in Jean-Luc Nancy’s work. The research explores the poetic of exscription though the philosophical, ethical, political and authentic senses it sets forth. In the Muses, Nancy describes the work of art and questions why are there several arts and not just one? This question focuses on the point of maximal tension between the philosophical tradition and contemporary thinking about the arts: the relation between the plurality of the human senses and sense or meaning in general. Nancy considers the emergence of art as presentation rather than representation and looks at the contemporary situation of art, and the question of whether art today is still art.
