Description
Summary:This article is dedicated to the specific questions of the global change of cultural paradigms and cultural movements. “The Challenges of Contemporary Art, Aesthetics, and Society within Pandemic 2020” is an opportunity to reflect upon the importance of contemporary aesthetics, arts, and social problems related not only to the digitalization and globalization aspects but also to the change of the understanding of the reality in the context of Pandemic 2020 and the global brand — new experience of lockdown. The main challenges of contemporary aesthetics, culture, and society are relationships between the relation of reality and virtuality and between digitalization and the art world and aesthetics. These relationships raise a question upon popular mainstreams, their influence on contemporary arts, and the possibility to keep the classic notions of aesthetics. Additionally, this article helps to maintain the drastic change in the whole world’s social structure. It gives a theoretical explanation and systematization for a clearer understanding of current aesthetic terms “beauty” and “sublime” as trends and correlations. As well as introduces a specific change in cultural paradigm because of the Pandemic and sharply developing integration of virtuality into the modern culture.
