“Logic of substanceless thinking” and simulacra of “superhuman” in the visual culture of Russia of the late 20th – beginning of the 21st centuries
The article examines the tendency to return to a universal feature of primitive thinking – to “circular logic” or “logic of substanceless thinking”. The author explores from the position of a cultural approach the concept of “superhuman” and the stages of destruction of the matter of “human” in the movement towards simulacra of the “superhuman”. Using the example of Russian cinema, an attempt to construct another being with a “pre-reflective attitude” of consciousness, reflecting a fantastic, spiritual search for truth in a sociocultural space in which the civilizational foundations of life are annihilated, is analyzed. The “looking-glass anti-world” in visual culture is filled with simulacra of the “superhuman”, which are allusions to both man and the “superman”.

Сreative tandem “vocal - bayan” in the history of tatar musical culture of the first half of the 20th century
The article analyzes the joint work of Tatar singers and button accordion players of the first half of the 20th century. The formation of the Tatar singing stage gave rise to a new type of creative tandem “vocal-button accordion” for the performance of Tatar folk and original songs. The need to create a new concert genre is caused by many reasons – the love of listeners for the instrument harmonica and button accordion, as well as the ability of this instrument to accompany the complex drawn-out melodies of Tatar folklore, which is performed either a capella or accompanied by a musical instrument. The button accordion has become optimal for decorating Tatar folk songs. Tatar musical culture of the first half of the 20th century is predominantly the result of the vocal art of masters well versed in the traditional folk repertoire that forms the basis of Tatar folk music. Concert teams could travel mobile to any locality in the country, consisting of 1-2 accordion players and 1-3 singers. Button accordion players performed solo numbers in the programs, showing virtuoso mastery of technique and knowledge of the folk musical repertoire. The article analyzes the little-studied creativity of button accordion players of the first half of the 20th century, who created tandems with the best Tatar vocalists of that time. The material for the article was memories of Tatar button accordion players in the Tatar language and an audio collection of Soviet gramophone records. The relevance of the work is due to the need to highlight the phenomenon of the concert union of a singer and a button accordion player as a special genre of pop music and as a development of the traditions of Tatar musical folklore.
Тhe methodology of constructivism in teaching historical painting
Introduction. The authors of the article share their experience of teaching fine arts based on the methodology of constructivism in teaching students painting based on the preparation of the exhibition project “Moskovia – Volga Bulgaria: at the crossroads of paths and destinies”. Goal. Formation of ideas in the public space about the events of national history. Methods. Сonstruction of historical events of the past by means of historical painting, classification and typologization. The scientific novelty of the resеarch. It is proposed to use the approach of the philosophy of constructivism in the training of painters. Methods of teaching painting according to the project “Moskovia – Volga Bulgaria: at the crossroads of paths and destinies.” A new classification of historical painting genres is presented and described: the battle genres “triumphant-symbolic”; “socio-political-symbolic”; "socio-dramatic"; “nationally identical-everyday”. Results. Creation of a project of 15 paintings “Moskovia – Volga Bulgaria: at the crossroads of paths and destinies”, dedicated to the 1100th anniversary of the adoption of Islam by Volga Bulgaria. Conclusions. From the point of view of constructivism, we have defined the classification of Russian historical painting in two directions: religious-iconographic and secular. We divided these trends into subgenres of historical painting, firstly, according to the criterion of plot; secondly, according to the criterion of reflecting state symbolic policy. We are talking about historical paintings commissioned by socio-political institutions. The order can come from the sovereign, the state or from a public organization. Conventionally, these types of genres can be designated as follows: The first subgenre is “triumphal-symbolic” battles, for example, works commissioned by the Russian tsars, dedicated to victory in wars; The second subgenre is “socio-political – symbolic”, an example of a modern project of 15 canvases “Moskovia – Volga Bulgaria: at the crossroads of paths and destinies ", commissioned by the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Moscow Region. Two other “socially significant” subgenres of historical painting are not necessarily custom-made, but do not deny this: 1) “socio-dramatic” is based on the dramatic basis of the relationships of historical characters; 2) “national-identical-everyday”, conveying the atmosphere of the past through everyday life.

Features of the selection of repertoire for an ensemble of two domras and a guitar
The authors of the article, examining the scientific literature on the peculiarities of selecting a repertoire for an ensemble of two domras and a guitar, pay attention to the fact that the musical repertoire material for these instruments is not very rich. The difficulty lies in the fact that each instrument has its own history, its own composers, its own personality. The originality and uniqueness of professional ensemble music making lies in the timbral and sound performance, therefore, the correct selection of the repertoire is to find special styles in which you can hear classical, folk, folklore and modern performance and convey to listeners, not the monotony of any one instrument, but a musical dialogue of melody and cantilence. The means of expression possessed by each instrument and the equal partnership of performers are aimed at fulfilling creative tasks and all this depends on the quality of the selection of the repertoire.

Functions of art science in the socialization of junior school сhildren
The aim of the study was to determine the vector and theoretical and methodological basis for the transformation of the functions of art history as a block of aesthetic disciplines of primary general education school in the process of socialization of students. The factors of increasing complexity and uncertainty of the new social reality, the deformation of spiritual and moral foundations and world outlook guidelines of the younger generations, determine the scientific search for ways to strengthen the educational role of general education school in the socialization of younger schoolchildren. Socialization of personality, as a continuous process of cognition of culture and mastering the ways of being in it, is largely conditioned by its aesthetic culture and the ability to understand the essence of things and phenomena with the help of artistic and aesthetic images and values of art. It is necessary to transform the traditional for primary school education personality-oriented functions of teaching and education of students in the direction of their in-depth socialization in the process of studying academic disciplines of art history. We propose a system of functions of art history in the education of junior schoolchildren oriented to: preservation and development of culture; distinction of good and evil on the basis of artistic and aesthetic images, values and norms; joint activity for the common good; creativity on the basis of beauty and harmony; individual and social subjectivity; self-development of their creative potential; development of individual emotional and sensual sphere in the conditions of information-technogenic environment.

Development of a model for mastering Tchaikovsky's vocal music by Chinese vocal students
In the modern musical environment, representatives of Oriental peoples and cultures attach great importance to the emotional impact of Russian romance. P.I. Tchaikovsky was a recognized master of Russian romance. Tchaikovsky's romances are filled with artistic and technical possibilities for vocalists, which is why teachers of Russian and foreign universities turn to them. In China, many competitions are held every year among vocalists for the best performance of Tchaikovsky's romances, and works in the genre of Chinese romance are created. Russian romances reflect universal human values, are imbued with national Russian specifics, they trace the characteristic features of the Russian person and the Russian people. Russian romances create unique material for mastering vocal music. Vocal parts from Tchaikovsky's romances are convenient for learning, which allows them to be considered as educational material for teaching vocals in universities. Russian is also studied by foreign students who resort to learning Russian romances. However, mastering Tchaikovsky's vocal music requires a special approach and methodology. It is much more difficult for international vocal students to master performing techniques. In this regard, the issue of developing an optimal model for mastering the vocal music of P.I. Tchaikovsky is relevant. The developed model will allow to present and analyze step by step the entire creative process of mastering romances.
