Abstract
The objective of the following lines is to undergo a clear distinction between nothingness and other concepts that have usually been alike to it, such as zero, denial and absence. The article open with a series of significant references about the concept of the zero in mathematics and its cultural implication with Nothingness. At the same time, the intention held by this study is to point out that knowledge is not only centered on the tangible or on things that are; rather, that it requires, just like art, the notion of a reality not centered on the being.
