Art-polyana «Les» (Amursk, 2018-2022): experience of cultural expertise

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the features of the functioning of art spaces in the cultural space of the region on the example of the art glade «Les» of the city of Amursk, Khabarovsk Territory. In relation to this new phenomenon of culture, the conceptual apparatus is still poorly developed, as well as the theoretical and methodological base is not fully formed, since culturology has rarely turned to the study of the phenomenon of art space. An important place in the work, in this regard, is occupied by clarifying the concept of «art space» for its further development and use as a model; highlighting its key characteristics. The systematization of categories of «places» of cultural space proposed by L.V. Nikiforova is used as a methodological model for conducting cultural expertise. Such a detailed analysis of the various components of the art space, in accordance with the model used, makes it possible to form the most holistic view of the content of this phenomenon.
The following websites and accounts of cultural institutions in social networks were used as the empirical basis of the study. Also an important source of information about the process of formation and functioning of a particular art space was an interview with its organizer.
