Summary/Abstract: The article constitutes and attempt to outline such a conception of art criticism which would take into consideration post-modern transformations concerning the functioning of the arts in various societies. The category of criticism is understood by me in a broad sense which enables one to accept utopian thinking and an evaluating attitude. In my research I deal with the issue of defining what is art/poetry in the context of modernday knowledge about the interpretative character of critical activities; I put forward a hypothesis that at the present moment, arguments and contentions between researchers, critics and commentators concern the very possibility of interpretation. I also opt out for perceiving positive consequences of critical work.
