Heidegger attacks the truth that the recognition of beauty is independent of
any specific (and possibly contradictory)
"unconcealed truths" with which it may be associated.
He is completely outside the artworld that elevated Van Gogh above thousands
of other painters who depicted "peasant clothing" - and until proven
otherwise, he appears to have been outside any community
of visual discernment at all -- collecting nothing -- preserving nothing --
practicing nothing -- and utterly oblivious to the major art controversy of
his time ("decadent art" versus social idealism)
He knew as much about visual beauty as I know about Chinese opera.
I suppose that his iconic status is such that you and William have to kneel
and kiss his pinky ring -- but his philosophy is firmly opposed to the life of
forms in art.
>I don't see any attacks on truth from Heidegger. It would not be wise.
Truth always wins. (Boris)
