Methodological Traditions of Art Criticism in the Development of Pedagogy of Art

摘要

The purpose of our analysis is to methodologically substantiate the role of art history traditions in the development of art pedagogy. The basic approach is determined by the method of A. A. Davydov, a prominent Russian art critic. The work is based on the principles of objective analysis, historicism, interconnectedness, and continuity of development. The theoretical background and the development of the scientific method of art critic are considered. The authors review a special attitude of the scientist to the problem of the scientific nature of art history disciplines, a demanding attitude to art history categories, and an appeal to interdisciplinarity. The authors argue that the normative and recommendatory nature of the scientist's research method played a decisive role in the formation of modern ideas in the methodology of stylistic analysis of art monuments. Since the article presents a methodological interpretation of the art history method, the novelty of the study is primarily associated with the identification of new perspectives of analysis and possible methodological approaches in the pedagogy of art.
