Schelling's goal is to find a total consciousness for human; therefore, in the philosophy of nature, he tries to reach from the real to the ideal. On the other hand, the conscious spirit is a product of human subjectivity, so, an unconscious spirit manages things. Therefore, Schelling's transition from natural philosophy to the system of transcendental idealism occurs. Reaching this level of consciousness is possible when [I] goes through different stages. The first stage is sensation, then reflection and after that comes praxis. But since the will of the subject of and the will of nature are the same, and ethics is in the realm of practical reason, then the subject of action does not have free will. Therefore, there is a gap between theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy that Schelling must somehow fill. He solves this problem with the free and creative will of an artist, a will that acts not out of necessity but freely. Schelling reaches the absolute from the identity of natural philosophy and transcendental idealism. The absolute is the result of identity of the real and the ideal. It is crystal clear that expounding how to objectify the absolute leads to a better comprehension of Schelling's philosophical system. In this article, it is investigated that among theoretical wisdom, practical wisdom and art, which one Schelling deems the most functional mechanism to objectify the absolute, and what are the roles of genius and the beauty through this path.

Art by making ideas sensuous brings our conscious ideas into harmony with what is given to us unconsciously by nature. For Schelling, aesthetic intuition is the real expression of reason; it objectively produces what philosophy can only address ideally through intellectual intuition, thus art is the eternal organ of philosophy. The production of the artwork, which comes about through the work of genius, begins by the free conscious act, brings the identity of freedom and necessity, and ends in objective unconsciousness act of artwork. In the work of art, there is an identity between freedom and the necessity and also between subject and object; what brings harmony in the artwork  between the free conscious act and the objective unconscious act is the absolute, which initiates philosophy. By showing the inadequacy of practical reason, which is based on the division between subject and object, Schelling deviates from Fichte’s transcendental idealism. So the philosophy of art must be considered as a subversion of Fichte’s focus on practical reason, where Fichte grounds his system in the self’ s free activity, Schelling now argues that the true realization of human activity is in the work of art, which is objectively produced. This essay examines the position of genius in art product, by explaining the relation between the conscious act and the unconscious act and demonstrating the identity of the two in the production that is called the highest expression of nature. Therefore, with a focus on demounting the subversion of practical philosophy, the aim is to show how the absolute is objectified in the work of art, which is achieved through genius and aesthetic intuition.
