It seems to me that what you are saying is that Art can be reduced (everything can be reduced) to an idea or a content or a form (any kind of something) that can be accurately and appropriately described (and inscribed in a disciplinary fashion) through academic language (without suffering any real, noticeable, substantial loss).
I would claim you lose pleasure first of all, and then, I ask, why even bother?
I dont believe in this supposed structural integrity of western rationalism.
What if the world we see is a mental breakdown that we all share? We cannot step out of it. How do we talk about it?
A sense of humor is fundamental.

As we move forward (FORMward) things become vague, blurred. Things fall off. We forget. Maybe we arent moving, only the past crumbles and that seems like moving?
