Based on the philosophy of Herbert Marcuse, this paper aims to demonstrate the possibility of overcoming the principle of reality through the assumptions provided by the aesthetic education. Centred in the formation of the subject as a whole, the aesthetic education of Marcuse approaches the concept of Bildung, focusing on the task of bringing back to modern rationality humanistic dimensions that were blocked by the instrumental rationalization process. To fend off the competitive logic and emphasize instinctual release, aesthetic education could still foster a new structure of experience that would change the essential way the relationship of individuals with the objects and the environment. Thus, the aesthetic education could design a free technology for the realization of its original telos: the preservation of life.

Keywords : Marcuse; The reality Principle; Aesthetic Education.
