Fine Art is complicated phenomena which often holds different issues and resolves different problems. Fine Art is also on the brink of “misunderstanding” and is often replaced in the perception by not so complex artistic – cultural objects. The main aim of the Artwork should therefore be to provide an environment or a possibility of intercultural, inter-media and interpersonal communication, and to offer a way how to express inner and cultural contents to different persons or cultures. There would be often a discussion about the importance of Fine Art, especially in present time, but also there would often be different ways how to understand each and one Artwork, and which issue is crucial in the aesthetic perception of Art. Present paper tries to analyze the main issue which could be understood as the origin of the misunderstanding of Fine Art: aesthetic interpretation. Even though, it looks like the act of interpretation is the one responsible for different meaning and countless readings of Artworks, this paper would like to analyze the real impact of interpretation and its connection to the misreading of Fine Art, and everyday communication as well. The main aim is to demonstrate the relation between interpretation and quality of cultural phenomena, and to illustrate how an aesthetic interpretation could remove caused interpersonal and social misunderstandings.

The main topic of the paper is the analysis of Wittgenstein’s (later) understanding of rules, i. e. their nature in terms of a paradigm of “language games” in the context of Kant’s ideas on the rules of art. The submitted paper is a continuation and elaboration of my research and reflections on Kant’s concept of genius, and partially, on Wittgenstein’s thought, presupposing a mystical aspect of the artistic sphere. The first analyzed connection corresponds with the theme of ineffability of rules as well as affinity of the ideas of both philosophers concerning the issue of the process of understanding rules, i.e. grasping them in practice. In the second, less extensive part I analyze the hypothesis for the dynamics of rules which is a natural consequence of a playful activity in the language use (Wittgenstein) or in creation (and reception) of works of art (Kant).

The paper deals with the possible parallels between Heidegger's aesthetic thinking and aesthetics of the Bauhaus art and design. The authors examine to what extent could philosophy of given period interfere with the development of modern art, while exploring and analyzing different theses of theorists who have expressed on given subject. Heidegger wrote three key texts (Das Ding 1950, Bauen, Wohnen, Denken 1951, Die Frage nach der Technik 1954), which embraced the theory of design. The authors of the paper examine to what extent could Heidegger theses have an impact on contemporary product design.

The most often and discussed issue in the analysis of prehistoric art is the problem of interpretation and the problem of understanding of prehistoric artistic artifacts. There are a lot of approaches, but the most popular from the aesthetic and artistic point of view is the interpretation of meaning of prehistoric art. In the present paper we would like to discuss the productivity of iconological and structuralism approach, especially in the interpretation of Celtic art from the area of Slovakia (Slovenska Nova Ves) with application on the statue of a boar. The main problem is the existence of Celtic myth in the written form, which allows us to understand mythological meaning, but also confuses us because of the apocryphal characteristics of this “tales”.
