Genius and Representation

The ostensible ground for Kant's subordination of Genius to Taste is its un-universalizability.  However, that attribution is difficult to reconcile with his earlier recognition of the exemplariness of Genius,  Instead, a more consistent basis for the status of Genius in his Aesthetic Theory is implied by his ascription of inimitability to Genius, namely that it is unrepresentable.  For, in a theory that conceives Fine Art as fundamentally Representational, as a branch of a system that conceives Experience, in general, as Representational, Unrepresentability is a sufficient ground for a diminished status, if not for non-status.
