The philosophy of space in the art of the Silver Age

At the present stage, a deep analysis of artistic culture, its basic categories, such as space- time symbols, based on Christian ontology and anthropology, is relevant. In the context of spiritual and aesthetic integrity, historical and social processes and reflecting the artistic models of knowledge of God and the fight against God, the article analyzes the philosophy of space, represented by the types of perspective - ideographic, reverse, direct, eastern and hyperspace. The religious, philosophical and semantic nature of creativity and pictorial categories is explored using as examples icon painting, classical art and the work of the leading masters of the Silver Age - M. Vrubel, P. Kuznetsov, K. Petrov- Vodkin, M. Chagall. The need is noted in the analysis of classical art to rely on the fundamental spheres of medieval Russian culture, its liturgical-soteriological, symbolic, moral-psychological and anagogical meanings.
