Abstract

The purpose of the article is to consider performance as a means of creating an art object in the creativity of contemporary Ukrainian artists. The research methodology. An analytical method is used to collect and study theoretical material about the "Birth of Birth" artistic action, which opens the unique "Cosmogony" project, the exhibitions "Artarmor", "Shards of the Sun", art objects – "River-Love ", "The World through Rose-Coloured Glasses", "Friend", "Equilibrium", "Ladder", "Movement of Suprematism", "Wind Rose", "Confrontation opposite Bessarabka", and others. A hermeneutic method is applied to interpret the principle of performance as a means of creating art objects in the work of modern Ukrainian artists, while a theoretical method is used to summarise the results. The scientific novelty of the paper is that for the first time the principle of performance is studied as a means of creating art object in the creativity of contemporary Ukrainian artists. Conclusions. The article examines performance as a means of creating art objects in the context of the work of modern Ukrainian artists, using the example of the works of A. Logov ("Sun Fragments" project), P. Antyp ("Cosmogony" project), P. Bevz, Yu. Vakulenko, N. Bilyk ("Artarmor" project), D. Iva ("Bronze Ant"), V. Padun and L. Padun ("The World Through Pink-Coloured Glasses"), O. Lidahovskyi ("River Love", "Equilibrium", "Ladder "), O. Zolotariova ("The Movement of Suprematism", "Wind Rose", "Confrontation opposite Bessarabka"), O. Hodunov ("Friend"), mural "The Call of the Family", created by Ya. Vlasenko-Bernatska and Yu. Abramova. The art object, having its own artistic and functional features, in the work of modern Ukrainian artists acts not only as a new art form, but a means of communication that combines a mixture of different materials, methods, painting can be combined with graphics, sculpture with installation, performance may be accompanied by a video sequence. In the context of modern socio-cultural reality, an art object is a response to the surrounding events, it is a challenge and a reflection at the same time. Invoking the principle of performance, which has elements of visualisation, spectacle, play, mass, Ukrainian artists emphasise the creation of art objects that, in the modern cultural situation, reflect their vision of modern reality. The main feature of the art object is the absence of a canon or any rules in the process of its creation, a sculpture of an unusual shape can be combined with paper and wood. The main thing is the idea that the artist conveys to the recipient
