Philosophy of art and aesthetics has a special place for thinkers and philosophers. The importance of Heidegger's view is his criticizing of metaphysics from Plato up to modern time and his unique views concerning aesthetics, from one hand, and his special points of view about the origin of Artistic work, poetic settling of human, and considering of art as salvation in the age of modern poverty and necessity of meditation on it.
In this paper, it is tried to indicate how Heidegger rejects aesthetics' approaches to art by using of his works. The main stressing of Heidegger's concerning is that art is based on the concept of Thing that the way of understanding it is to start with its concept and the conception of Artistic Work which it is possible to consider it as beginning of metaphysics and transcending from it. The second way is to explain and interpret Thing as indicator of four existents including Heaven, Earth, Sacred beings and Mortals which is the result of human's poetic creation and settlement. Finally, this is poetic that saves modern human in the contemporary hardship age which is the result of metaphysical thoughts and technology.
