Abstract

Marcuse's aesthetic theory and the fundamental intent of the ultimate goal, is through the art-centered aesthetic revolution to eliminate alienation and achieve human emancipation. In this process, imagine playing a significant role. With differences in the nature of imagination, is the basis for the establishment of a new sensibility and power. Artistic activities as the basic way of thinking to imagine, build, respectively, the two points in the past and future utopia. In short, imagine the aesthetic world in free ride, as people realize the power of self-liberation, but also the fundamental way to build a utopian aesthetic. The ultimate goal of Macuse's aesthetic theory is the liberation of human beings by eliminating alienation in an aesthetic revolution centered on art. In this process, imagination plays a crucial role. The imagination, with its radical Otherness, provides the basis for the establishment of new sensibilities. As the basic logic of artistic activities, imagination constructs two kinds of Utopias, one oriented towards the past and the other towards the future. In brief, the unbridled gallop of imagination in the aesthetic world becomes a liberating power for men, and it is also the fundamental approach towards the construction of aesthetic utopias
