Sartre, an important representative of existentialism aesthetics, inherited the tradition cogito of Descarte and phenomenology of Husserl, established his theory on pre-reflective consciousness. He dedicated himself to connecting phenomenology with existentialism, studying the consciousness of existentialism and giving the proof to ontology of humane freedom.Sartre thought art is not the pure imitation to reality. And he was against embodying some meaning through two-face mask. He thought art is not the reality, meaning or something ,which should show the deep exist and the human freedom and belong to contemporary. His aesthetic system was based on theories of images. He insisted that the extended meaning of art is in its image. Sartre studied and inspected image by intentionality theory on the basis of actual existence in pure consciousnes,so he believes that image is one of unreality , denial to reality. Thus image has characters of creativity and transcendency. By constrcting ideal world we can hold nothing and transcendence reality.The work of art is call of artist to the reader; reading is the creativity under leading. The treaty of passion is made between the author and reader. Based on it they co-created the world of image. In the process of aesthetic reading, people overcome the gap and become the one. Sartre thought the words of the means that writers intervened life and refused reductihg the works of art to the symbol of theory. The value of aesthetic was established on the aesthetic enjoyment and came from the human common freedom. People transcend reality by aesthetic, which leads to ultimate freedom.Sartre affirmed the human subjectivity. His passion influenced several generations. His aesthetic is the acting aesthetic full of subjectivity and the critic of reality, which greatly influenced the society and the subsequent theory of aesthetic.
