La Pintura De Cézanne Y La Fenomenología De La Percepción De Merleau-Ponty Como Búsqueda De La Experiencia Originaria

This paper tries to clarify the coincidence between some of the main features of the characterization of perception in the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty (Phenomenology of Perception) and the picture technique of Cézanne. Although placed in different work areas, indeed, the reflection about the perceptive act and the process of pictorical creation, there is an inspirational shared basis: Merleau-Ponty’s notion of “original experience” goes parallel to Cézanne’s understanding of the painting as a the original appearing of the things so as they should appear to a glaze that goes beyond the objectivating categories of every daily, normal perception.
