“The book under review brings a valuable contribution to the discussion about the end of art, grasping it from an interesting point of view which provides the reader with an original insight into the end-of-art theories of three significant philosophers.” (Šárka Lojdová, Estetika -The Central European Journal of Aesthetics, Vol. 56 (2), 2019)
