This article explores the reflection of art within the frameworks of phenomenology and hermeneutics. Drawing upon Edmund Husserl and Algis Mickūnas, it examines the significance of phenomenological reduction for the experience of art, and further analyses Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s concepts of intersubjectivity and embodiment. The aim is to introduce the reader to the hermeneutic conception of art reflection and to compare Hans-Georg Gadamer’s notion of the fusion of horizons with the state of phenomenological reduction in the experience of artistic creation. The article examines the manner in which the subject reflects upon aesthetic experience, foregrounding the role of subjectivity in the process of artistic perception and elucidating the intentional relation between consciousness and the work of art. It further raises the question of whether art may be apprehended in a spontaneous mode and whether its reflection can be achieved through the suspension of prior knowledge, relying solely on the immediacy of present experience. The hypothesis is advanced that a work of art becomes an event of Being when pre-reflective experience enables the artist’s perspective to transform into immediate existential experience.
