Abstract
Via reading through the different interpretations on Cezanne's painting by Meyer Schaprio, Merleau-Ponty, D. H. Lawrence and Deleuze, this article is firstly aimed at manifesting the different directions in the development of aesthetic theories after the 20th century: psychoanalysis, phenomenology, literary and art criticism, as well as post-structuralism. Secondly, it intends to demonstrate that although these critiques refer to and draw from one another, they are in parallel relation. And lastly, these observations have elaborated on the artistic world inside the painting, which provides us with a defense of the inexhaustible immanence of art against the negative nihilism of the art market value.
