Dimensions variable - temporal aesthetics and the work of Pierre Huyghe.

Journal Title: Studia Humanistyczne AGH - Year 2016, Vol 15, Issue 2

Abstract

In the framework of curator Nicholas Bourriaud’s radicant aesthetics, this essay explores the artwork of Pierre Huyghe who uses time as both his subject and his medium in practices of world-making and journeying to express the complexity of unique experiences of the temporal. Huyghe’s works play on the subject’s dual role in both the creation and inhabiting of a world image, and the way that trajectories of time make their various effects within it. From Benjamin’s dialectical image to Kant’s metaphysical aesthetics, the complexities of perceiving time and time-based encounters in art are analyzed.
