The aim of the research is to study in detail the work of Ukrainian choreographers - representatives of the "modern" style of Western Ukraine in particular. The research methodology consists in the application of several approaches: analytical for the study of literature on the topic of the article and system; using a range of methods: biographical, culturological, comparative-historical, theoretical generalization - comprehensively achieving the stated goal. Due to the biographical method, we considered the professional and creative experience of choreographers, which explains the sources of their work. The comparative-historical method helped us to study the historically formed features of modern dance, to note its structure, due to which we determined the differences between the previous experience of choreographers and modern choreographic research. The scientific novelty of the study is that we are the first to trace the features of modern dance style in the productions of famous choreographers of Ukraine I.V. Mazur, O.B.Lan, O.V. Martyniuk, A.S. Safonov, S.V. Naenko. The research of this issue helped to understand the main trends in the development of contemporary choreographic art in Ukraine, which are to create a national school of modern dance and the use of choreographic vocabulary in ethnic productions. Conclusions: Due to the research, we followed the development of modern dance on the example of the work of Western Ukrainian choreographers listed above. Our research proves that Ukrainian choreography does not deviate from modern fashion trends. The choreographers of our country develop a fashionable pro-European culture of modern dance in their work, create ballet performances in this style and continue to experiment in their own search for lexical material. Art analysis of the leading Western Ukrainian choreographers of modern dance allowed us to identify special cultural features of modern dance in Western Ukraine, which is manifested in the combination of modern dance with national traditions and the creation of an academic school of this style under the influence of national culture.
