Abstract
The point stated in this paper is that painting is not only a reproduction or a window of things, more than that, painting inhabits things when it shows the vision that the painter has from inside of them. According to Cézanne, colour is the visible texture of the world, in such way, nature generates its own view in the colour. The painter shapes on the canvas and by means of the colour his inner, immanent, vision of things.That is because, according to Merleau-Ponty, the human body and the world are tied by the visible. Cézanne gives bis vision of reality, as a painter, when he thinks the world in a pictorical way. This paper argues that the activity of this artist, that consists in painting bis vision of things from inside them by means of colour, puts him near a thought of inunanence of nature as it is grasped by Merleau-Ponty and Friedrich Nietzsche.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
