I indicate that Morawski is in favour of historical-cultural relationalism, where aesthetics is practised as a philosophical discipline, whose object of cognition is aesthetic qualities and values, and in art they are reduced to artistic qualities and values which it ultimately replaces with a set of aesthetic invariants. In the concluding part I undertake a polemic with Morawski’s standpoint on reducing artistic qualities and values in art to aesthetic qualities and values and with his diagnosis of the end of art.
