We are witnessing that Foucault is trying to develop his own personal aesthetic and life art through the death of man, death of author and death of language, and that in this sense, Foucault's fascination with abstract artist and avant-garde art at every opportunity. His invitation for the artists to explore the bounds of their minds to create a new world, and even to go beyond the mind, and to mention that they can only talk about a writer function, not a literary field writer, are almost a sign of his battle against ordinary and monotonous in the field of art. Life and art can only be understood by their opponents. Opponents are complementary.},author={Şule ÇELİKKAN},year={2016},journal={The Journal of Academic Social Science}}
