Abstract

The problem of the study of Soviet fine arts in 1917–1922. devoted to a lot of art history literature. Many of the theorists agree that in the work of artists of the early Soviet period a new concept of man is realized in his relationship with the socio-historical ideals of Soviet society and with the real conditions of the existence of the individual. The authors of the article believe that the masters of this time not only showed close attention to the new tasks of the revolutionary social reorganization of the country in the period from 1917 to 1920, but set themselves the goal of revealing, consolidating into a physical, tangible image of a revolutionary man, behind which lies the idea General content. Masters unite in creative groups, complicating and accelerating the formation of the stylistic certainty of collective principles (The World of Art, the Union of Russian Artists, etc., a huge number of art exhibitions), while at the same time allowing the individual creative style of a particular master to manifest itself. The artistic transformation of the world in most works of art of the first quarter of the 20th century takes place in the creative dialogue between the human creator and the human viewer. Along with the many existing theoretical definitions, stylistic classifications and typologies, the chronological narrative of the history of art in the first quarter of the 20th century, there is no analysis of new artistic associations as a cultural phenomenon of the 20th century, which to a certain extent devalues the uniqueness of the artistic culture of this historical period. In this article, based on the conceptual provisions of modern art theory, an attempt is made to form a holistic approach to the study of newly created art associations in the Soviet fine arts of 1917–1922.
