Summary/Abstract: Questioning the traditional understanding of art and conceptualism of aesthetic thinking the contemporary philosophy opens the problem of the theory of art transformation. It also considers the new starting points for a work of art in its creation. The issue of the theory of art starting point becomes the most important problem which is essentially determined by both - its philosophic foundation and new intentions in understanding the work of art. The origin of possibilities in acceptance of the world in its intransparency and its real nature is being revealed in a wider, ontological sense. In this way art gets the new importance regarding the general understanding of the world and becomes liberated from the "burden" of aesthetic meaning and from the conceptualism of idealistic thinking.
