Classical aesthetics sees the experience of the beautiful as an anthropological necessity. But, in fact, the beautiful is rather the central category designating classical art, and one can question the relevance of this category considering contemporary art. The reference term most frequently used for contemporary art is interesting: works of art solicit the interests of my faculties (the cognitive-intellectual, the pragmatic community-oriented moral, the affective aesthetic faculties). It is interesting to notice that the categories of the beautiful and the ugly have an axiological-moral value. It looks as if the qualities of contemporary art works are judged according to the intensity of the impact on the interests of our faculties. It reveals important, in this respect, to distinguish the ugly from the sublime and the monstrous. Kants Third Critique is of some importance in defining these categories.

Ao longo do séc. XX, a necessidade de libertar a arte das regras que a oprimiam e o desejo de conhecer os seus limites e significados levaram os artistas a atitudes extremas. Monocromia, ready-made, galerias vazias, objectos desmaterializados ou invisíveis são faces de uma aproximação da arte ao nada. Estas atitudes deixaram todos os caminhos em aberto. Entre eles a arte das pequenas coisas, que privilegia o espírito criativo humano, o prazer de fazer, a atenção ao quotidiano e a reutilização de matérias-primas. /ABSTRACT: ln the twentieth century, the unchained of art from the academic rules, and the push ofknowledge to the edge brings artists to the extreme. Monochrome painting, ready-mades, empty galleries, formlessness or invisible objects are actual results from this kind of attitude. From this point forward every path is open for the artists. Among them the "tiny things art’ emerges as an expression of human creativity, as a "joie de faire", gathering the attention from the everyday's world and reuse of quotidian materials.
