The article deals with the object of didactic research and theory in aestheticseducation. It strives after such generalization, which allows one to think out interdisciplinaryrelations between didactics within the field of aesthetics as well as to othereducational areas. Goodman’s aesthetics theory of symbolization and its focusing ondenotation, exemplification and expression is the main source for explanations in thisapproach. Expression is analyzed as a symptomatic and aggregate type of representationalactivities in the aesthetic disciplines of education.
