The Role of Media in the Development of Art Forms and the Language of Modern Art
Abstract
The article explores the use of media and communication channels in modern art practice. We considered the use of synthesizing, organizational, expressive media capabilities in works related to various areas and types of art of the second half of the 20th — early 21st centuries. The review includes such media and technologies as radio, social networks, hologram, video projection, video broadcasting, virtual reality. Using examples of combining the expressive possibilities of different arts (dance, video, theater art), carried out through media, it is shown that the introduction of media can serve to enrich, develop the language of art, allows to set and solve new creative tasks. In this context, the article analyzes examples of new space and time solutions in theater, dance, performance projects. It has been shown that the successful synthesis of media with traditional forms often leads to the emergence of new genres. Examples are cyber performance and video dance.
