Contemporary art in the subjective representation P. Shugurova.
He was a man who painted the canvas black box and put it on display in the corner of the room, as an icon. This happened in Russia. This gesture is defined direction for the art of the 20th century, as the conceptual, symbolic, beyond representationalism.
He was a man who bought it in manufactured goods urinal, took it to the gallery exhibited under the title Fountain and the famous. It was in France. This determined that the art will now be something that will be called art.
Another man, after the Great Patriotic War, after the German captivity, when he miraculously survived, always exhibited in galleries and museums, huge cubes of fat, and huge bales of felt that what he wanted in captivity. Englishman. That man realized his personal history as art.
Was a man every day of his life he wrote on the canvas. On the canvas he drew large numbers date to the day when painting. All my life. It was in America, the man was Japanese. He did this because he understood his life as a continuous act of creation.
There was another man who was walking home the morning after the night shift, and the idea came to him, asking all passersby, so they wrote him a notebook in a phrase: The Beauty will save the world, sign and date. It was in Vladivostok. And none of the twenty people met him not refuse. He did not call himself an artist, but we know that it was them.
So contemporary artists express their ideas. And if they should express them differently, if a form of expression as laid down exactly matches the idea?

We tend to define art as the artistic expression of man's thoughts regarding the world, their place in nature, in society over time. History of art, we tend to see as a consistent development of human thought and artistic expression. We are not inclined to share the history of art in independent stages (such as pre-Christian history of art and, separately, the Christian world), to the person (say, Raphael is the Raphael, but Warhol is Warhol.) For us, this whole history of art process, in which Warhol-a logical extension of Raphael. Such an understanding of the past will enable us to understand what is happening today and now make predictions for the future. Of course, we are interested in a variety of other concepts, we carefully study them, but his concept of exhaustive and final, except that the amendments and additions to it.
So what is contemporary art? This art, which elects the subject of artistic expression of thought, any object or phenomenon, or substance. Professionalism is not a contemporary artist to create works of mastery of technique and improving their thinking, outlook. Thus the emphasis in the creative process is transferred to think the concept works. Blame the artist is a very special idea. To translate this idea in the material the author may no longer apply: the product can be assembled at the factory on the design, can be purchased in the household or grocery store, can only be named. The crucial question is: Why artist identified the subject of consumer protection and non-fiction made it into the medium of art, called it art, some of this idea?
It seems that the idea of the artist, his personality has always defined the essence of art, but it is not. The value of the artist's personality is a historic achievement of the art, as the value of personality, there is a great achievement of the society. Primitive society was not aware of art. In the Middle Ages was an art, but it was not the author, the Renaissance recognized author, but only as a professional Executive. Avant-garde artist reinforced the value of personality, but the value was confirmed by the works. Contemporary art is not fully liberated from the complex product (the product-is a symbol of a certain policy, and economy is as strong capital investment), but progress towards the value of ideas and the depreciation of the product, clear and interesting.
The artist and the viewer are the same. On exhibitions are increasingly hear statements such as, I just can do, think of it! And it's true, is it difficult: to buy a tin shop and put it on the podium in the gallery. It's easy to do, but it's hard to understand this gesture as art, it is difficult and be considered a domestic action as an art-in the genius of the artist. It is as difficult as to realize a unique personality, and be aware of every human surround a person, understand their lives and the lives of every person, as a creative process, being committed every day. Imagine your life as a museum, art as something precious, and you will tap their advantages and disadvantages.
Many viewers offended by contemporary art, hurts that they do not understand, or what is art so far from the traditional ideal. The viewer seems to be that a modern artist like encroaching on the usual ideal, if it breaks. That's not true, all the artists to learn from the classic design, and consider these samples, as their base, their roots, and their art, they do not destroy, but represent an alternative. The ideal can not tolerate an alternative, but the weakness of the ideal. As for the audience misunderstanding, accusations of ugliness, ugliness, this conflict has always been, it is a guarantee of development. Classical works by Rembrandt and Caravaggio, in his time as shocking (to develop) the audience, as today's performnsy and installation.
Contemporary art tends to engage in dialogue with the audience ...
Thus, the ultimate goal of the transformation of art we see an ideal situation, when everyone understands its originality and freedom, and recognizes the same originality and freedom of every person on earth. To do this, we work, and many contemporary artists.
