Abstract

The paper touches upon the topic of the nature of art and the personality of an artist. As his main task the author sets to determine how the world of artist's experiences affects the output of his work, and while studying fundamental works in the field of aesthetics, psychology and psychoanalysis, he tries to answer the question of whether it is possible for an artist, sharing his personal experiences, not to become carrier of global ideas. The author considers the historical approaches toward these issues appealing to the paintings by Omsk artists M. Usova and G. Kichigin and mentions the increased interest in the self-portrait genre in the Siberian region. In addition, the author identifies the vector of development of the self-portrait genre in the field of contemporary art from the standpoint of the needs of modern society. 

Keywords
