Summary:In the following paper I’ll try to explain how aesthetic experiences cannot be utterly defined through language. I’ll start from this point, supporting my arguments on the theory of the so called second Wittgenstein regarding language’s limitations. So as to address the issue in a better way and taking the works of Magritte and Duchamp as referents, I will establish some connections between art and philosophy, thus raising the question of what may or may not be considered as a work of art. Finally, we shall approach the issue under the light shed by Foucault’s and mainly Gadamer’s theories.
