El origen de algo es la fuente de su esencia. La pregunta por el origen de la obra de arte pregunta por la fuente de su esencia. »Según la representación habitual, la obra surge a partir y por medio de la actividad del artista. Pero ¿por medio de qué y a partir de dónde es el artista aquello que es? Gracias a la obra; en efecto, decir que una obra hace al artista significa que si el artista destaca como maestro en su arte es únicamente gracias a la obra. »El artista es el origen de la obra. La obra es el origen del artista. Ninguno puede ser sin el otro. Pero ninguno de los dos soporta tampoco al otro por separado. El artista y la obra son en sí mismos y recíprocamente por medio de un tercero que viene a ser lo primero, aquello de donde el artista y la obra de arte reciben sus nombres: el arte"-Martin Heidegger, Off the Beaten Track
