Aesthetic objects?

This critical analysis of the concept of aesthetic object, which is intimately related to the ontological bias in Western thought tries to develop an alternative approach to the study of such objects. Aesthetic facts are not properties of objects, instead, they express a mental attitude towards reality. Conceived thus, the aesthetic dimension implies neither decontextualizing objects nor turning a blind eye to their functionality. We should separate aesthetic from artistic aspect. The notion of artwork should be reformulated in relation to more general considerations about much less than costly signals much greater than.
