The article explores the problem of understanding contemporary art in terms of its semantic content. The problem of communication (dialogue) between the director, actors and spectators is also posed, which is based on a hermeneutic triangle.

The problem of communication between the director and the audience is closely related to the problem of understanding and mutual understanding, which cannot be considered in isolation from interpretation. Based on the position of A. France that "each work is not completed," due to interpretation, an adequate and most complete understanding of the meaning of the work of art is achieved.

We come to the conclusion that art is a process of co-creation of all three sides: author, director, viewer, who must understand each other, i.e. convey and understand a thought or meaning. Theatrical art arises in the presence of the viewer as an act of co-creation, which is born due to mutual understanding between the participants in communication. In the context of the socio-cultural crisis, this problem is actualized, in connection with the need to create a new picture of the world in society as a basis for its sustainability and harmonious development. And art is conceived as one of the models of harmonious structure.

In the article we use the interpretive method, Schlick's method, hermeneutic approach, value approach.

Key words: artistic image, art, theater, interpretation, meaning, social crisis, directing, theater studies, work of art, contemporary art, understanding.

 

Friedrich Nietzsche remained in memory as a cruel reviewer and merciless critic. His criticism of culture is associated with the experience of the crisis of the era, the loss of cultural values, fatigue and disappointment characteristic of Modern Times. His philosophy is not a coherent system, but rather a bunch of aphorisms, creating a peculiar vision of culture. The article shows that in the course of the development of philosophical views, F. Nietzsche develops certain concepts and metaphors associated with the concept of "culture": vitality, vitality, abundance and decline of culture, Dionysian and Apollonian principles, criticism of Christian culture, cultural aristocracy and nihilism. Existentialism, interacting with the ideas of F. Nietzsche, emphasizes the importance of freedom of choice and responsibility to oneself and the world, recalling the need to accept personal life and manifest one's true self, regardless of external factors and social standards. Postmodernism, in turn, is based on the ideas of F. Nietzsche about the destruction of metaphysical truths and the rejection of universal norms.

Key words: Nietzsche, nihilism, philosophy, culture, existentialism, postmodernism, modernism.

This article analyzes innovations within the framework of modern Chinese musical culture. The author provides a brief description of the concept of “pop music”, as well as the history of its development. The author pays special attention to such musicians as Wang Lee Hom and Jay Chou. The artists mentioned in this study are figures who stand out in contemporary musical culture due to their musical styles. They write, compose and are instrumentalists. Some combine traditional music with popular music. Very often they only include the sound of traditional instruments in their songs. The cultivation of traditions, even in such an external form, is nevertheless a feature of the Chinese mentality. This is probably also partly due to the influx of Western music, with the crisis of Chinese identity after the Cultural Revolution. So this is a manifestation of aspiration - a return to the past and a manifestation of innovation - to answer the key question of who we are.

Key words: China, music, modernity, innovation, culture.

The technology of porcelain production has been known to mankind for thousands of years, but only a little over three hundred years ago they learned to produce porcelain in Russia. The first Russian porcelain factory is the Imperial Porcelain Factory. It began the history of producing porcelain masterpieces that are admired by the whole world.

Humanity has known how to make ceramic products for a very long time; craftsmen from different countries sought to unravel these secrets.

In recent years, history and traditional values closely associated with it have come under one of the most serious tests. The attempt to replace them with the universal values underlying the liberal model of globalization has failed. Despite the collapse of the mondialist project, its persistent imposition on states and peoples by representatives of Western civilization left serious gaps in the spiritual space of Eurasia. An appeal to traditional values helps close these gaps. An example of such a policy is public diplomacy and the holding of the Forum “Traditional Values of the Peoples of the East and the Modern World” in April 2024 in Dushanbe.

Key words: civilizations, globalization, Eurasia, traditional values, education, public diplomacy, diplomacy of religions.

The security relations between Russia and the United States directly influence the European security model. However, the dialogue between the two countries today is also undergoing a crisis stage for a number of reasons: the absence of an approved draft treaty on security guarantees between Russia and the United States, the absence of a signed agreement on security measures between Russia and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization states, the suspension of Russia's participation in many arms control treaties (START, START-3; CFE Treaty; INF Treaty; CTBT; Treaty on Open Skies), the absence of ratification by the United States of many arms control treaties, and the aggravation of the Ukrainian conflict. All of the above-mentioned reasons only distances the countries from organizing joint efforts to form a unified security system in Europe.

Working methods. The research is based not only on general scientific methodology, which involves the use of a systematic approach, but also on the methods of O. Comte, which are successfully working at the present time. The basis of this work is the works of domestic and foreign specialists. Results. In modern conditions, when the presence of civil society is a necessary social institution, as a result of the objective development of the political system of society, research shows that the action of the structural elements of civil society is not always positively perceived by representatives of local municipal authorities. The civil society institution exists as a political opponent at all levels of government. Scope of results. The results can be used in the formation of a political system of the middle and lower echelons of political power. A society develops well if the majority of its citizens share common attitudes and values. Citizens must really feel that according to the constitution they are “Bearers of sovereignty and a source of power.” Conclusions: a political science analysis of the development of the institution of civil society is necessary to overcome complex obstacles and problems of interaction between civil society and all structures of civil society. Positively-minded civil society institutions can contribute to the search for compromise solutions in the relationship between the state and society.

Key words: collective mind, “conciliar thinking”, civil society, political freedom, “commune” as a civil society, civil society as a self-organizing and self-regulating sphere of public life.
