Abstract

This article deals with the identification and explanation of specific features of the algorithm of description and analysis of the works of non-figurativism. The author draws on methodology of research of the stages of world abstractionism. Moreover, the author identifies contact points of the methodological traditions in the enthusiasm for the innovative search for an artistic form, as well as relying on the objective processes of the artist’s thinking. Based on the latest theoretical researches of domestic art historians V. A. Kryuchkova and N. A. Yakovleva, the author proposes to consider abstract art as belonging to genre groups. The author of the article also points out that during the study of the work of abstraction, there is a need to compare the analyzed work with potential similar works of the author, similar in technique and imagery. It is important to note two outcomes of the article. First, it is important to consider a detailed account of the algorithm for describing and analyzing the work of abstractionism with an explanation of a number of aspects of the interpretation of abstraction techniques. Second, the practical significance of the methodology for describing and analyzing the work of abstraction is formulated, as well as the prospect of identifying new genre subgroups is outlined. So, the practice of analysis of the work of abstraction in terms of the history of world non-figurativism allowed the author to note the self-renewing nature of the semiotic field of interpretations
