Written or Oral Texts as Visual Elements in the Process of Making Contemporary Art Work

Abstract

In this reflection, we in no way intend to establish or define what art is, including the work of art in ontology. This is not our concern today, and neither is most contemporary artists. Under the concept of “Zugganzes” of HEIDEGGER, we must understand an integer, whatever it may be, the accumulation of the necessary elements until a system is established. That is to say, a process of making a work of contemporary art where it explains that each element has its key role even indispensable, and its mission is to complete the role of the other elements. Throughout this paper, we answer the research questions: 1. How can we highlight a process of determining a work of art which is enriched by written or oral texts, in contemporary times? 2. why did we choose to link the concept of “Zugganzes” as the theoretical basis of this reflection? The research directs us to this conclusion that through the manner highlighted there: works of contemporary art considered as visual texts which enrich written or oral texts, this work was to attract the attention of spectators at all times and in all places. In the end, we understand that it is feasible to create visually symbolic texts by practicing written or oral texts as visual elements taking advantage of their contexts.
