In this article, we analyze the notion of philosophical disenfranchisement
of the art exposed in Arthur Danto`s work The Philosophical Disenfranchisement of Art. We argued that Danto's philosophy of art presents certain elements of disenfranchisement similar to those which the philosopher himself denounced in his historical approach to
the supposed philosophical tendency to make art ephemeral. For this, we analyze the relationship between Danto’s philosophy of the art and his conception of philosophy in Connections to the World.
