Abstract

The purpose of the article. The use of the work is outlined by the problem of highlighting essential aspects of the creative biography of D.Gnatyuk, fixed in the coordinate of the communicative cultural-artistic system of the Ukrainian space of the twentieth century. Applying to the master's directorial practice, we have the opportunity to generalize and rationally-objective analysis of artistic tendencies that were formed in the context of a complex sociopolitical and interethnic continuum. Methodology. The methodology involves the inclusion of the problem of analysis in the space of historical, art critic and culturological discourse with the obligatory consolidation of the issue in an interdisciplinary context. Such conceptual approaches will become a condition for coverage of little-known pages of D.M. Gnatyuk's creative biography, followed by an analysis of the artistic environment as the conditions for the artist to come to the Olympus of national and world recognition. The scientific novelty of the study consists in studying the creative figure of the twentieth century - D. M. Gnatyuk in a new format, which involves the consolidation of the individual in the coordinates of the subject of culture, whose reflection crystallizes in creative searches, tests, and achievements. Conclusions. Investigating the director's steps in the projection of the interpretive decision of the opera by O. Borodin "Prince Igor," we have the opportunity to feel the dynamics of the formation of the individual, in which the director's period is represented by a generalizing and accumulated internal demand model. The mentioned factor is a new stage in the creative biography of the artist, which stimulates a permanent rethinking of his inner essence, taking into account the cultural and artistic and sociopolitical context.
