Abstract

The paper present art as an activity/knowledge characterized as a fiction that acknowledge itself as a fiction, embracing and having a positive recognition of experience and daily life, and by its opening to particularity and intersubjectivity. Thus, art is perceived in its potential contribution to epistemology. This potential contribution is unfolded through a confrontation between art’s qualities and the Modern notion of Truth as elaborated by Descartes. On the paper’s closure, we advocate that art provides a way to think epistemologies more suitable to deal democratically with difference.
