ART of TAMBOV

Day by day we face the objects of art which are present in every sphere of human activity. Absolutely, it's hard to imagine human’s life without art which takes its origins in ancient times when primitive people were learning to draw on the rocks, make tools and utter the most simple sounds. Why did people need fine art in the Paleolithic Age? What was the aim? Some scientists and historians think that they believed in its magical significance which could guarantee a successful hunt, the birth of healthy progeny, etc.

 A man from modern world may say these features have no use in contemporary life. And he or she will be partly wrong. Yes, the culture of today’s world has no need in pagan rituals, but nowadays art hasn’t lost its spellful meaning and even has developed it and converted to the sublime. Emotions that we are experiencing during the contemplation are something wonderful. Art bring us a miracle of mental satisfaction which exists because of the deep connection to our feelings. Each form of culture creates a sense such as painting, literature, music, theater. Each form of culture makes us looking inward and seeking answers to existential questions in our own minds.

 In turn, the authors add their own feelings, thoughts in the art work during the process of drawing a portrait or making up a book. That is like mother’s love. She grows up her precious child with the deepest passion. That is why Art therapy exists. It may focus on the creative art-making process itself, as therapy, or on the analysis of expression gained through an exchange of patient and therapist interaction. The psychoanalytic approach was one of the earliest forms of art psychotherapy. This approach employs the transference process between the therapist and the client who makes art. The therapist interprets the client's symbolic self-expression as communicated in the art and elicits interpretations from the client. Analysis of transference is no longer always a component.

Thus, it is possible to say that art is not only one of the variety forms of satisfaction and joy, but it is absolutely one of the most enthralling and useful methods of maintaining the body in a healthy conditions.

During the process of learning history we may discover that culture is changing over the years. Sometimes it characterizes only twelvemonth of the people’s life, sometimes it is a distinctive feature of the whole generation. However, cultural principles doesn’t vanish from century to century, they settle in the world’s history and serve as a lesson to the next generations. For instance, no one ever forget about great works by leading composers and artists: Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Da Vinci, Caravaggio and etc. They became ones of the respected representatives of the culture from different ages.

The art helps people to open the mind, to realize themselves as integral personality, to go into their inner world, to the world of their ideas and dreams. It helps to break away from the reality for a while, to relax and organize thoughts and then to see the world with the new eyes. It is interesting fact that Vrubel, who was known as the person with mental health problems and even was sent to an asylum, was feeling himself much better after painting. It once again shows the versatility of the positive effect on us and even on our psyche from Art.

Mankind should keep masterpieces of art. Even if we can always create something new, modern and stylish it will be completely different work in comparison to old ones. This way, we may lose not only the masterpieces, but the whole parts of our great history. People can forget about our ancestry, about who we are right now, where we came from and where we are going to. It is necessary to appreciate what we have right now. If humanity stop keeping it essential then the art world will be doomed to perdition.

This way, aforecited arguments left no doubt that each kind of Art plays an important role not only in the world’s existence, but even in the life of a single person. 

Exactly, the problem of Tambov Art is a low level of the erudition and of the knowledge in the field of fine arts of the city of Tambov and its surrounding towns. The statistics represent only the bare facts at that time, when a person sees a consequence of some problem in them. Thus, the author of this document may conclude not only a low level of education and of the development of individuality, but also to claim that lack of the national spirit and of patriotism is also actual problem. In modern conditions of formation and growth of Russia as a great state of law young people give preference to foreign celebrities, heroes, traditions and customs, etc.

Elaborating the above arguments, the main problems of the theme of Tambov Art are:

1. The low level of erudition;

2. The low level of patriotism;

3. Demoralization of society;

4. Poor knowledge of foreign languages;

5. Lack of interest in national history.

The main reason why the author has chosen the stated theme of Tambov region Art is based in concernment about the future of her native region and the people that live there and unconsciously carry the culture of the main city and the surrounding area. What is more, the deep student’s knowledge in the field of fine arts of his native city and also the whole country makes it possible to reveal the posed problem not only at the municipal level, but also at the international one.

The purpose of the present study is to provide a ready to use product. It has been made a decision to create a website as a form of presentation of the received information about Tambov artists.
