It is unlikely that there will be another theoretical question that is met with as much distrust as the question of beauty and the aesthetic. The difficulties of aesthetics in its development serve as the main argument of those who do not want science to interfere in the area of ​​the beautiful and aesthetic evaluations. For the beautiful, the exquisite and the artistic "there can be no science, only criticism" - this statement of Kant has been repeated on a variety of occasions and in the most diverse variants to this day. I do not want to say that everyone who doubts the possibilities of the theory of the aesthetic is necessarily a Kantian. But the fact is that distrust of aesthetics is mainly shown by those who dispute the objectivity of beauty, the aesthetic and the artistic.
