Abstract
Witkacy’s Pure Form expresses the metaphysical essence of art. On the one side, it symbolizes the
structure of the world, the unity in plurality (which is demonstrated in the picture’s composition)
and, on the other, the notion deals with the processes of creating and perceiving an art work. The
moment in which the self feels itself embedded in the wholeness of the world is the moment in
which the metaphysical feeling arises, and in which the experience of art is fulfilled. Witkacy
provides many examples for situations evoking this feeling. He describes them in his novels, he
finds synonyms as suchness, curiosity of existence, mystery of being or unity of identity, he
switches from scientific to poetic language. And he emphasizes that this feeling, while defying
verbalization, is a real, not a supernatural one: a psychophysical phenomenon accessible to introspection,
and inseparable from one's cultural and individual background.
