Prof. Dr. Žarko Paić, research fellow at the International Center of Studies on Contemporary Nihilism (CeNic), has published Aesthetics and the Iconoclasm of Contemporary Art: Pictures Without a World by the highly regarded publishing house Springer. As stated in the presentation, this book has as its main themes understanding aesthetic, contemporary art, and the end of the avant-garde not from the traditional viewpoint of the metaphysics of the beautiful and the sublime, but rather thru close relation to the techno-genesis of virtual worlds. On the other hand, Professor Paić argues in this writing that the iconoclasm of contemporary art has severe consequences for art itself.
