Summary/Abstract: What always surprises at Theodor W. Adorno are the expression, the depth of thoughts trapped in negative dialectics` game -we are still meditating on.The most recent aesthetic theories are interested on the conjunctions between art and communication. I try to show that these perspectives may have some roots in the Adornian thought. It is to be observed the resistance to the ‘utopia’ or even the ‘tyranny’ of communication, and impact of mass media, nowadays: The traditional artistic object knew metamorphoses entering the labyrinthine ways of the Internet. The same it is to be told concerning the moal territory. My attempt, here is to follow the trail of some important analogies which I found in this horizon: the same promise of happiness in the sight of the art, as well as in the organization of the society. I try to understand some of the arguments presented by Adorno in defending the art and its autonomy. In addition, it is the search of understanding the sense of suffering and a key of overcoming it.
