La ricerca si muove dalla irriducibile polisemia del sacro. All'interno di questo, l'indagine si sviluppa per verificare le premesse ontologiche necessarie per riconoscerne autenticamente l'essere medium tra l'uomo e il divino. Tale funzione si attua sui medesimi segmenti nei quali si attiva l'opera d'arte intesa come evento della verità. All'interno di una ricognizione del panorama artistico contemporaneo volta a rintracciare la presenza del sacro e nel seguire le premesse e gli sviluppi del mutamento da un regime di ostensione a uno di esposizione, si va chiarendo l'essenza dell'opera d'arte sacra che quindi viene condotta ad analisi nel suo creare uno spazio-tempo specifico, nel suo anelito al divino inteso come possibile e nella sua funzione epifanica.

Abstract
The research starts with an analysis of the polysemy of meanings associated to the sacred. The propositional limit is described in order to verify the premises that allow a relationship between man and divinity to be established. A parallel between these dynamics and those between Truth and the art object is presented. The research touches on historical debates between image, art and the sacred. A history which is not solely philosophical but also very much grounded in written debates within the various Christian churches that continues to the present day. A definition of sacred art is provided and then posited within the context of the contemporary art spectrum. The question regarding the possibility of a genuinely sacred contemporary art is posited and analyzed using examples from present day artists .File | Dimensione | Formato | |
