- Abstract
This article aims to rescue the principles of a materialist aesthetic - mainly those ones developed by György Lukács - that focuses on the artistic production as an elaboration of its own reality, and as a consequence, becomes an aid instrument that supports the overcoming of material contradictions. We assumed here that cultural domination is an extension of the power of capital over labor, reducing the possibility of transformation through artistic elaborations. From the dialectic movement between basis and superstructure, the artistic production as a reflection of reality may become a transformative force in society, considering that the masterpiece represents in an effective way possibilities to oppose and overcome the contradictions in capital when it regains its objective character in human life.
