GONZALEZ ARANEDA, Sergio. L’expression et l’invisible. Sketch for a phenomenological aesthetics at Merleau-Ponty. Sig. Fil [online]. 2022, vol.24, n.48, pp.12-37.  Epub 02-Jun-2023. ISSN 1665-1324.

I propose to elucidate the theoretical foundations of Merleau-Ponty’s thought to elaborate the way to a phenomenological aesthetics in his philosophy. For this, it is necessary to delimit the technical concepts to which Merleau-Ponty appeals and, renewing the Husserlian method, exposes them as a phenomenological opening to the sensible world. The concepts that will guide the investigation are: expression, flesh and the dynamics between the visible and the invisible. All of this will allow us to present the discoveries made by the French philosopher, while opening a series of consequences that still need reflection and analysis.
