Sažetak

Alain Badiou’s lecture on subject of art, which arises out of his comprehensive philosophical work on being and subject, represents a notable part of anti-postmodernistic current in problematizing of art and promises a “new life” to the work of art despite almost universal resignation of postmodern thought when it comes to world of art. A work of art as an event, as an affirmative rupture in dialectic of body and its trace, and also as a rupture between subject’s fulfillment in the bodily (pleasure) and transcendental world beyond the body (sacrifice) – is in fact an unfinished step out of the formula of the World, where till then impossible form (“in-form”) becomes possible and leaves its trace in the body of the work of art. Analysis of this kind takes the discourse of art from historical view in postmodern current back to the fundamental concepts of being and subject − although it is an entirely new, mathematically founded theory. The idea behind this presentation is to confront apparently separated views of artistic discourse: historic thought encapsulated in a declaration on “end of Art” since Hegel and forth and ontological thought of Alain Badiou which makes a return to a true being of the work of art that makes it immune to social turmoils of any kind. This confrontation apparently has two possible outcomes: Badiou’s subject of art as a final annulment of historical view of art that brings the work of art to a “world of living”, or it is that Badiou’s subject of art is just another in the series of utopias that are trying to reclaim the very substance of art in philosophical discourses, not seeing in the process the correlation between ontological and historical idea of the subject.
