Abstract

Art plays a key role in Flusser’s thinking. However, this very notion will assume different conceptions throughout the author’s work. Our purpose is to investigate and present a “morphology” of these meanings, starting with his inaugural work, Language and Reality (1963), republished in English in 2017, to the late writings, focused on the philosophy of the media. In the end, our purpose is to understand disruptions but also convergences in Flusser’s aesthetic theory.
