When Eros Drives Artistic Research

Abstract

The purpose of this text is to relate artistic research to the search for knowledge driven by Eros. It is necessary to focus on one way of researching -in the arts- to see if its objectives and its epistemological contributions are beyond the requirements of producing proven knowledge. The artistic process that is driven by amorousness could take its epistemological nuclei -the intuitions that are expressed on every artwork- and develop them conceptually on the surface itself of the work of art, resulting in a place that reunites intuitions and concepts to resume the integration of knowledge.
