Friedrich Nietzsche has written Twilight of the Idols (German: Götzen-Dämmerung) in 1888, the last year of his activity, and it was published later, in January 1889. In this book, Nietzsche takes on the discussion of what is the underlying purpose (and function) of art, by using his conceptual opposition between the Apollinian and the Dionysian.

The Frenzy of the Artist

Nietzsche describes the frenzy as the indispensable physiological condition for the existence of art and aesthetics.[1] Frenzies of all kind meet this requirement, such as sexual, victory, feasts, movement, destruction, all serve to enhance excitability. But the frenzy of will, or an "overcharged and swollen will" leads to a feeling of one's strength being increased. [2] When this feeling is applied to things, they become idealised. This process of idealisation does not merely imply the downplaying of irrelevant features, but a powerful desire to amplify its main features, while the others get lost in the process. [2]
