Title: Art: Guarding the Thing——A Thought on the Thing in This Era
Abstract: This paper attempts to examine the Thing in this era.It begins on the level of consumption.Consumption makes things ready-to-hand to present-at-hand on the one hand;and on the other hand,it makes the pragmatic thematic.As a result, the Thing is reduced to a pragmatic approach.Then this paper traces the Thing in concept,which means the subject puts the concept into the Thing and changes it to concept.Finally,it discusses the art.As another manner for us to encounter the Thing,art has two dimensions of eliminating subject and surrendering emergence.Consequently,art guards the Thing and lets it emerge.
