Logic of Knowledge ("Gonoseology") as a Constituent of the Creative Method

The purpose of the article is to find out the nature of poetics (or, the same, artistic creative method). The research methodology is based on the principle of systematic: the author adheres to the concept that art as a creative process represents a certain system. Scientific novelty. Being a form of social consciousness, a way of expressing a person and a means of establishing certain ideas, art is now one of the types of production. This production is specific (spiritual), especially among the spiritual (artistic), and yet it is one that has all its fundamental features in general, including (1) organizational, (2) economic and (3) technological. Regarding (1): art as the production of artistic values in its historical development is the same stages of social (collective) organization of labor, as production in general (including material goods). Namely: co-operation (icon-painting, general painting workshops), manufactory (theater), factory (film), industry (television). Concerning (2) – some arts (for example, cinema) represent independent branches of production, but very effective in the economic sense. As for (3) – art production technology, understood in its laws, determines the specificity of art with its almost-production (handicraft side). Conclusions. Proceeding from this understanding of art (artistic creative process), the essence of poetics, which formally looks like a certain set (system) of certain principles and rules, is considered by the author as the logic of the creative process, in which there are peculiar facets (in different forms of art and to varying degrees) epistemological, psychological, ideological and technological aspects of the artistic creative process. The epistemological aspect of poetics (the creative method) has been analyzed in this article.
