STAGE ART AS A SPECIAL FORM OF WORLD UNDERSTANDING IN SYMBOLS

The prevailing goal of stage art is to recreate life changes; the unfinished slogan of this statement is the postulate: the art of the stage is not only art; art involuntarily conceals the essence of the world outlook. Considering the stage art from the point of view of the material that forms it, it turns out that we have before us the product of an energy process, where stage creativity is a clash of symbols. The so-called energetic aestheti- cism of the scene passes into another beginning – into a symbolic beginning. The images that arise in the stage art are, from the point of view of the manifestation of unity in them, perfect images of everything human as such. At the heights of stage creativity, a certain unity is postulated, in the center of which is the value and meaning of life. This unity is a symbol. First of all, symbolic unity is the unity of what we call content and form. The author states, revealing the theme of the symbol, that conditional ideas about life reality, generalized and explicated by stage art, are emblematic concepts. The scene in the unity of creative forms with forms of symbol- ization, forms of images and their content actualizes the context of the worldview and the meaning of human life.
