As Husserl already noticed, artworks themselves have a phenomenological character. This means, however, that to experience artworks as phenomena no “epoché” and no “phenomenological reduction” is necessary. The leading question of my essay is whether, and possibly how, this observation can be methodologically generalized for understanding phenomena. I discuss if, and possibly how, a phenomenological reflection on art allows and even demands a general conception of phenomenology that nevertheless does not confuse artworks with phenomena in general. My intention is to show that and how phenomenality can be clarified with reference to its spatial character. Accordingly, works of architecture that are artworks will play a decisive role in my argument.

正如胡塞尔已经注意到的那样，艺术品本身具有现象学的特征。但是，这意味着将艺术品作为一种现象来体验就不需要“时代”和“现象学上的减少”。我的文章的主要问题是，是否可以以及可能如何将此观察结果从方法上概括为理解现象。我讨论了现象学对艺术的反思是否以及可能如何允许甚至要求一种现象学的一般概念，但这种现象并不使艺术品与一般现象相混淆。我的意图是表明，以及如何通过其空间特征来澄清现象。因此，在我的论点中，艺术品的建筑作品将起决定性作用。
