Summary/Abstract: Quantum Aesthetics phenomenon was formed in Spain, at the end of the twentieth centure. The paper analyzes this movement in the context of Algis Mickūnas phenomenological cosmic philosophy. Movement initiator is a Spanish novelist Gregorio Morales. The study is divided into two parts: the first part presents aesthetic principles of the quantum, relationship between new aesthetics and theories of quantum mechanics, physics and other sciences. The paper also examines the similarities of quantum aesthetics and New Age movements. The second part presents cosmic – phenomenological reflection of quantum theory of beauty. Mickūnas philosophical position combines theory of “eternal recurrence”, “the bodily nature of consciousness”, “the cosmic dance”, theory of “dynamic fields” and quantum approach to aesthetics and the Universe. Summa Summarum he writes that “the conception of quantum aesthetics is involved in the composition of the rhythmic, cyclical and mood dimensioned and tensed world”.
