Immortality of the artwork.

The german-american philospher Hannah Arendt states that artwork is "potentially" immortal. The immortality of the artwork is an immortal principle. If it lasts, it is partly because it is useless, or at least because its value does not come to its possible usefulness. "It is not made for men, but for the world," said Hannah Arendt.
