This article establishes a parallelism between art and science, underlining the ability of art to also allow to obtain forms of knowledge according to laboratory processes. It focuses on a certain metascience of art as a research on the operative logics of artistic research that, if there is a real commitment to understanding certain aspects of sensitive reality, provides existential knowledge. Starting from the concept of the ignorant master developed by Jacques Rancière, the artistic process will be approached as a producer of experiences in complementary processes of interpretation and expression, which can be identified with the experimental logic of sciences that takes place in the laboratory. Art as a place of experimentation seeks to be apart from the real but aims at the real, in a double logic of separation and connection that distances itself to understand and deduce, like when samples are taken for scientific study.
