Abstract

The article deals with the general educational and special function of the discipline “Psychology of Art” in the system of training art historians. It is proved that this discipline is a part of critical theories, propaedeutic for producing a critical attitude to both aesthetic experience and the usual forms of expression of this experience. Thus, the discipline compensates for shortcomings in the philosophical education of art critics and introduces the principles of constructing a theoretical system as a multiple introduction of new forms of reflection. The historical approach to reading the discipline never contradicts these projects of systematization. The study of the discipline allows students to form the experience of independent research, the fitness to find a theoretical productivity in prominent works on the theory and history of art, and finally, to formulate the problem not as a result of aesthetic experience or individual procedures of knowledge, but as an effect of accepting art as a dynamic system for evaluating and qualifying objects, processes, and actions.
