In this paper, we intend to address the phenomenological destruction wrought by Heidegger in the essay The Origin of the Work of Art, of the terms "matter" and "form", taken from the Aristotelian philosophy as guiding the interpretation of beings as such, and consequently, also the work of art. For Heidegger, this conceptual pair comes from the interpretation of the mode of being of the tool, and therefore doesn't relate to specific way of being of the work. As the history of metaphysics was guided by the terms "matter" and "form" as conducting wire of the interpretation of beings as such, any and all aesthetic and philosophy of art are, for Heidegger, settled in the understanding of a way of being that is strange to the work. Therefore, it's the deconstruction of these concepts as a first step on the way to the essence of the work.
