| Summary: | The article is devoted to «post-media optics» — a specific vision system «through the camera lens» in the context of Ukrainian artistic practice and criticism from the beginning of the 1990s to our time. The author considers the concept of «post-media» or «other media» in view of his own practical curatorial activity — as forming a professional worldview and its priorities.

The development of both Ukrainian and world art leads to the fact that reflections over their own blurry, synthetic media-specificity and is the main message of it. The main contributors to the process of «mediatization» of painting — Oleg Tystol, Arsen Savadov, Oleksandr Gnilitsky, Vasyl Tsagolov and others — are considered. |
