Art without Metaphysics: A Post-structuralist Reading of Art

Modern art proclaims a new epoch, epoch of suspension and release, the epoch called postmodern in public spheres. Post-structuralism is the thought of this epoch, the epoch in which man realizes his historical nature, and releases from Logos. Nevertheless, this release, contrary to the current conception, does not confront the life with pure relativism and meaninglessness. We want to see what would happen to the art in post-structuralism. In fact, the main theme of this article is "the art without Logos". In this article, by introducing and theorizing about “Linguistic Federalism” we would try to present a novel and different reading of art in post-structuralist paradigm. By laying aside Logos, commitment of art would charge to the "other". In this way, art is essentially committed, although not a metaphysical one, but a mundane commitment.
