Abstract
The philosophical concept of end of art opens up the ends of other fields (i.e., the end of science, politics, and economy that are in the present modified into not-just science, not-just-politics, and not-just economy). Contemporary art (considered as the not-just-art, art after the end of art, and would-be-art) enters intense relations with modified science, politics, and economics through processes of interaction, adoption of methodological devices, hybridization, and amalgamation. It is important to acknowledge that art is not a passive and second-grade link in these interactions, but rather contributes artistic innovations to other fields that then become art-like. There are a number of common denominators among the crucial fields of contemporary knowledge society.
