Abstract：To discern the indiscernibles is the main purpose of Danto’s philosophy of art. Influenced by analytical philosophy, Zen Buddhism, and symbolism, three ways of discernment can be identified in Danto’s text: the external discernment, the internal discernment, and the middle discernment, which, roughly speaking, mean a discernment by means of examining the object, self-reflection or enlightenment, and the relation between experience and expression, in Danto’s terms, the aboutness and embodiment, respectively. However, neither analytic philosophy and its external discernment nor Zen and its internal discernment can distinguish the indiscernibles indeed, only symbolism and its middle discernment have potential to do so. Unfortunately, Danto is so indulged in analytical philosophy and Zen that he could not see this promise from symbolism.
