A brief philosophical reflection is proposed on the critical method with which Hegel articulates art and religion to support the complex notion of spirituality that organizes and structures the Phenomenology of the Spirit. The importance of the Hegelian critical-methodological treatment of art, artistic creation and, above all, the work of the artist is highlighted because this treatment has an impact on the emergence of the concept of absolute spirit that accentuates the idea that the historical process of art underpins the self-learning of the spirit. The study allows us to affirm that, according to Hegel and specialized criticism, in effect, art achieves true autonomy with respect to religion only when it consolidates its constitutive knowledge and diversifies its disciplines.
