Panayotis Michelis focuses on Plato’s and on Hegel’s dialectics, because these philosophers put the question of art on the highest level of truth. He, however, argues that they pose a ‛outside dialectics’ on art, because they consider truth as metaphysical truth and then they maintain art fails more or less to manifest this truth. Michelis develops a dialectics of synthesis as a ‛dialectics in art’ and vindicates the place of his aesthetics between philosophy of art and history of art.
