Michel Foucault's life is a life that a philosopher seeks for a new way of life.Foucault's life is devoted to a critique of modern reason,especially from the ontological level to establish the space in the theoretical thinking of the priority.His theory of space has a wide range of influence,and "Heterotopias" runs through Foucault's theory of all,on the one hand,the performance of "Heterotopias" in the hidden space of thinking;on the one hand can also see poetic metaphor,An aesthetic view."Heterotopias" smashed the people with a rationalist "utopia" dream,but a real space can be achieved in the aesthetic survival of us.The author through the study of Foucault's writings,see his thinking system implied with the characteristics of the stage.Specifically,Foucault's theory can be divided into three stages: The Archaeology of Knowledge,Power pedigree and Aesthetics of Existence.Interestingly,each of his stages of thinking contains a space,especially the space of heterogeneity that "Heterotopias" thinking.This paper attempts to sort out Foucault 's spatial knowledge view and the spatial power view.Finally,it concludes that it is the clue of Spacial aesthetics and finds out the inner relationship of the three,which reveals the construction process of Foucault' s theory of "Heterotopias".This paper is divided into three parts.The first part starts with the social status and spatial view of Foucault's time,and explains the time and ideological background of Foucault's "Heterotopias" concept.This chapter first explains the historical features of Foucault's time,and then combs the development of the concept of space related to the theory of "Heterotopias" according to the clues of Foucault's spatial pedigree.The thought of "the doctrine" was born with the end of "World War II" and conforming to the trend of "postcolonialism" and "space turning".The second part of the Foucault directly on the "different state" of the text as the basis,to start the concept of "Heterotopias" analysis and collation.This chapter explains the process of Foucault's concept of "Heterotopias".On this basis,the paper analyzes the difference between "Heterotopias" and "utopia" by "mirror",and collates according to Foucault's "Different space" Out of the "Heterotopias" of the six principles to restore the "Heterotopias" theory of the original meaning.In the third part,the author discusses the inner relationship between his spatial knowledge and spatial power and spatial aesthetics theory,and discusses the construction process of Foucault's theory of "Heterotopias".The first chapter examines Foucault's thinking about modern knowledge and truth in "Madness and Civilization" and "The Order of Things",and sums up the "Episteme" of this spatial view of knowledge;then from discourse power and discipline The power of the two aspects to discuss the relationship between power and space,combined with the analysis of the prison,demonstrated Foucault's "space is the basis of any power operation," the classic idea for the later Spacial aesthetics paved the way;Finally,the author begins with the change of the two,three volumes and one volume of the “History of sexual experience”,and focuses on the change of the research angle after Foucault experienced eight years of wandering.From the perspective of spatial aesthetics,the author introduces Foucault's thinking on physical aesthetics and his aesthetic thoughts of life,and points out that "only through the survival of aesthetics so that the daily life of the aesthetic self-technology can achieve the resistance to modern power " The conclusion.At the end of the view of Foucault 's artistic view,this paper examines the aesthetic salvation function of painting as a kind of self-technology,that is,the practical application of Spacial aesthetics from the perspective of painting theory.
