Nicha's Thesis of Art and the Art of Disinterested Contemplation

Nicha is falling right in line with schopenhauer in view. So he says, modern aesthetics by way of interpretation. Can only add that here the first objective artist confronts the first subjective artist. But this interpretation helps us little, because we know the subjective artist only as the poor artist. And throughout the entire range of art we demand ... redemption from the ego and the silencing of the individual will and desire. Indeed, we find it impossible to believe in any truly artistic production, however insignificant, if it is without objectivity or pure contemplation.
