Andre Stanguennec sees something new arising in art: after modernity and postmodernity we witness a period called by him a post-post. The latter is a negation of the previous two, included at the same time into a new synthesis, in which they are not opposites any more. The article offers a reconstruction of several aspects of this synthesis. The new form of art is identified first of all in documentary video-art or in the micro-poietics of everyday life. The video-art is attractive due to its engagement and the critique of social defects, especially on legal and political levels. The small, non-grandiose poietics is related to more personal morals. It represents the ethical metaphysical aspect of the new art.
