Alexander Reichstein's performative installations as a subject-spatial development environment

The paper shows the potential of the cultural approach in preschool pedagogy. The authors consider performative installations of the famous European artist of Russian origin Alexander Reichstein as pedagogical spaces for the first time. The text attempts to reveal the hidden mechanisms that make Reichstein’s exhibitions extremely popular not only among adults, young people and schoolchildren, but also among preschool children. Reichstein’s exhibitions provide an opportunity for educating adults (teachers and parents) to discover the potential of preschoolers and find new mechanisms for their own pedagogical growth. The authors show that the cultural approach used in modern cultural studies is no less effective in pedagogy and is the basis of Reichstein’s expositions.
