The ceremonial and ritual formula of the phenomenon of "entertainment" in the works of Ukrainian artists of this period includes a reflection of the features of the transition from an atheistic worldview to a religious one, taking into account the specifics of the political and social life of 1990 in Ukraine, if before 1990 Ukrainian artists mainly painted historical plots depicting traditions ancient Slavs, after 1990 they began to reproduce religious subjects. The agonal formula of the phenomenon of "entertainment" in the works of G. Akishina, Yu. Gavrilchenko, S. Nechay, tests to the reflection of the specific phenomena of the twentieth century, such as socialist competitions, as a means of increasing labor productivity and a social phenomenon, and a gradual transition to the agonal form as a means of leisure activities – hosting the Olympic Games. The artistic and farcical formula of "entertainment", which is visualized in the works of Ukrainian artists of the XX–XXI centuries, is aimed at reproducing national traditions and preserving the Ukrainian national culture, thanks to which the spiritual worldview of our nation is formed.
