AESTHETIC EXPERIENCE IN THE WARTIME: THE ROLE OF PERFORMANCES AND PERFORMATIVES

Rezumat

The article is devoted to the philosophical and aesthetic analysis of modern Ukrainian art, which was created in times of full-scale war. The authors use the performative studies as a methodological approach. Aesthetic experience is extremely valuable because it helps open a person to the special presence of his existence and enriches all other dimensions of human experience. Aesthetic experience includes the analysis of people's psychological and sensory experiences and their embodiment of artistic creativity. In times of war, the Ukrainian artistic works and projects are characterized by the search for new forms, expansion of the subject matter, creativity, originality of ideas and embodied images, and a combination of artistic, psychological, and socio-cultural perspectives. Today, many artists have realized their mission – an artistic and figurative reflection of the war, a creative and symbolic space favorable for the formation of modern Ukrainians.
