In this video lecture, we begin examining Martin Heidegger's seminal essay The Origin of the Work of Art. We follow his starting discussion of art, artists, and workwork, and then move into discussion of the often overlooked "thingly" dimension of the artwork. Heidegger then identifies and outlines three prevalent conceptions of a "thing" in western metaphysics. We examine each, and then focus in on the conception of a thing as formed matter, which leads us into the notions of equipment, usefulness, and reliability. We leave off where Heidegger begins to discuss the truth of the artwork.
