摘要：This paper is primarily concerned with the difficulties posed byaesthetically assessing contemporary art. There is a general sense of uneasetowards current art practices. The possibilities of rationality weaken whenfaced with an art which lacks definition, and which moreover is dilutedby information, fashion and overall cultural consuming practices. YvesMichaud in his book Critères esthétiques et jugement de gout offers the possibilityto solve the problems of rationality and comprehension of contemporaryart practices through a line of thought, analytic philosophy, thatconnects Hume’s Philosophy in Of the Standard of Taste and Wittgenstein’slanguage-games.In this paper, I intend to focus on the experience of net.art, specifically inthe work of Jodi, as, on one hand, the experience of these net artists representsa new formalist current, especially the metalanguage pertaining to theso called “heroic period” of netart. In a specific way, I am relating the workof Jodi to some of the conditions of the functioning of language-games asseen in Wittgenstein, such as: aesthetic perplexities, supplementary descriptionsand family resemblance.
