Abstract

This article deals with the image of scientific and technological progress in the work of Pavel Nikolayevich Filonov, one of the most enigmatic artists of the Russian avant-garde. The master’s concept of “analytical painting”, presented in his theoretical heritage, combines art and science, allowing us to look at his work as a product of artistically recorded thought activity. Therefore, the following material for the study was selected: 1) theoretical works of the artist (letters, diaries, memories of the artist); 2) artistic works (“The Feast of Kings”, 1913, and “The Formula of the Cosmos”, 1918–1919), recording the development of this concept. The methods of research were analytical analysis of the text and philosophical and art history analysis of paintings by the method of V. I. Zhukovsky and N. P. Koptseva. According to the results of the study, the artistic image associated with Filonov’s understanding of human progress and evolution was identified, some semantic layers of his works were determined
