Artistic communication: phenomenological research method

The paper examines the relationship between artist and spectator through the prism of the phenomenological method. The author assesses the possibilities of using this method to investigate artistic communication. The analysis of the phenomenological contact between the artist and the spectator includes “listening to genesis” and direct contemplation of genesis as the universal unity of the world, nature, things and humans. A study of the possibilities inherent in the phenomenological method for communicating through art is attempted. The phenomenological characteristic of the subject serves as the basis for the interpretation of artistic communication as a trusting dialogue with the Other, expanding to the intersubjectivity. The possibility of exploring the transformation of the subject in the process of artistic communication is highlighted as important for contemporary culture. The phenomenological consideration of aesthetic perception assumes a special place in this process.
