Since the most relevant artistic production rejected modernist aesthetic theory in the 60s, there has been discussion about the question of whether aesthetics had really anything to do with art at all. Various forms of cognitivism in the philosophy of art developed accompanying the conceptualism that, broadly speaking, has been at the core of most neo-avantgarde practices. However, the interrelationship between art and aesthetics has been reviewed on different basis. This paper focuses on recent Danto’s «aesthetics of meaning» in order to dispute the conceptualist thesis which states that aesthetics is irrelevant for the criticism and the value of contemporary art.
