- Title
Artesanía.

Mendoza, Carlos Oliva
- Abstract
The present text explores, based on Hegel's observations, the development of crafts within modern culture and, specially, its relation to arts and religion. The article is based on the hypothesis that crafts maintain as a defining trait their usability value, as opposed to the valorization of value that arts undergo. In this respect, crafts pieces tend to rapidly and violently oscillate between a permanent intent of sublimation and the most elemental material resistance: being defined by the use and destruction of itself.
