Summary/Abstract: The article opens the question of the perception of the relationship between art and capitalism in the contemporary era. This complex problem is treated from two angles of observation, which seem to be in a contrasting relationship. The first interpretative emphasis is placed on Adorne’s aesthetic theory of the mediation of art and society, while the other is summed up in Mikelsen’s theory of the effects of non-philosophical contemporary art which, in fact, conquers the position of power in the context of neoliberal capitalism with its empiricism. The article examines both these approaches, given their basic intentions, ranges and possible outcomes.
