Main Article Content
Abstract
The lines that follow are intended to investigate the formulation from the dimension aesthetics in Marcuse. For this, some considerations of the author about art and the revolutionary possibilities that it entails will be addressed. For Marcuse, art can become a subversive element that would configure a sensitivity different from that produced by a society governed by a principle of reality that stagnates the realization of pleasure based on a burdened and wasted life among men. The possibilities of a new configuration of social relations, which are in accordance with the pacification of existence and the free development of human capacities, have their condition of possibility in the aesthetic form that shows, and until now immediately hides, the horizon of a principle of reality that establishes the bases on which human life would be worth living.
