AB - This article begins by explaining the most important concepts for Giorgio Agamben: Homo Sacer and the State of Exception. Agamben calls people living in-between the legal system Homo Sacer. He also described the state of exception as a state of exclusion from the protection and governance of the legal system. In addition, Agamben presents the singular “Form-of-Life” as a new political alternative to those who exist as Homo Sacer. In addition, Agamben divides the State of Exception into two concepts. One is the State of Exception declared by a sovereign as a state of emergency, and the other is the true state of exception, in which the governed decide for themselves. Agamben argues that this State of Exception manifests itself as a Form-of-Life. And artworks revealed through images and gestures make this Form-of-Life possible, and sometimes become Form-of-Life itself. Agamben explains the theory of art through several works. This article categorizes and describes his art theory with keywords such as Image, Gesture, and a Form-of-Life. Also, his art theory is based on dynamic images such as pathosformel and dialectical images. Finally, this article introduces artworks conducted by various artists based on Agamben's art theory and applies his art theory to other artworks.
