In this publication, the author attempts to develop an aesthetic theory from Heidegger’s phenomenological concepts. She analyzes Heidegger"s concepts of truth, world, space, and related concepts and establishes a formal, contextual and material method of analysis for the purpose of examining works of art. This new method of analysis is applied to three pieces by the artist Joseph Beuys as a case study.
