«BASTARDS IN THE OPERA», OR ANORMATIVITY AS NORM IN CONTEMPORARY MUSICAL THEATRE
Journal Title: Δόξα / Докса. Збірник наукових праць з філософії та філології - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue
Abstract
The article investigates the pragmatic features of contemporary art practices, the causes and consequences of changes of cultural norms in a relationship «artist – recipient». The understanding of art as giving aesthetic pleasure, educative and entertaining is established as indisputable cultural norm in classical aesthetics. Of course accents on the priority of these purposes of art are varied depending on the cultural and historical settings. Questions about the status of art and its functions, the relation between the elements of intellectual and sensual aesthetic pleasure, the possibility of catharsis as a subjective action have a new, often controversy semantic content in a situation of “the death of the subject” dominance in the cultural space of modernism and postmodern sensibility and ideas. Provocation as the basic element of communication in the contemporary art is also researched. It is aimed to removing the audience from the state of comfortable relaxation and well-established identity. The transformation of the normative model of communication in musical theater is also researched. The paper attempts to identify and analyze cultural facilities of (post) modern culture in producing the creation of new meanings and forms of communication in the triangle «artist – work – recipient».
