Rudall believed that works of art should speak for themselves. He even found it difficult to give titles to his paintings. Yet all art has a political and economic perspective chat is not only ...interesting to the observer but also highly relevant to the artist practitioner. Here, Rudall's art and social context, from his early artistic connections in Swindon, Corsham and London, through a period of relative obscurity in the West Midlands to a highly creative period in Bath that brought him greater artistic productivity and fulfilment, are explored.
For the first time the article substantiates the informational understanding of culture on the basis of a systematic interdisciplinary approach and takes into account the information content as such ...and cultural content in the dialectical unity of information flows, including hostile, with further proposals for such information understanding. in the national security of Ukraine and democracies. The connection of relations in the sphere of culture, on the one hand, and in information, on the other hand, at the theoretical level, in normative regulation and in practical activity is established. Theoretically, based on the principle of evolutionism, it should be assumed that the information exchange, genetically determined, between individuals of the animal world occurs in the pre-human period. In the process of evolution and anthropogenesis, the result of cultural work is the creation, processing, assimilation, dissemination and transmission of information that has a non-biological, non-genetic nature. The objectivity of the relationship between relations in the field of culture, on the one hand, and relations in the field of information, on the other, creates appropriate relations at the level of administrative and legal regulation of these relations. This unity of administrative and legal regulation makes it possible to determine, by means of the same or similar principles, the legality of restrictions or the absence of grounds for such restrictions and on the basis of the principles of the 1950 European Convention. For the first time, from the point of view of the requirements of the European Court of Human Rights, the legality of restrictions on the introduction into the Ukrainian information space of information and cultural product of the Russian Federation as an aggressor waging an information war against Ukraine was analyzed and substantiated.

The workshops are adjusted for people with psychotic disorders to enable them to strengthen their sense of self, to empower them and to express their authentic feelings in a safe environment. Results The artwork of people who have taken part in the art therapy programmes for psychosis of the University psychiatric hospital „Sveti Ivan“ will be presented and will serve as an example of an art therapy process, therapeutic goals, as well as the significance of this method for psychotic disorders. Conclusions Art therapy can be of great benefit for people with psychosis both on acute wards and as a long-term therapy. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Water is a slippery subject: its visual and material properties spur intellectual inquiry and spiritual reverie; its fluctuating form repels categorization and confounds claims of ownership as it ...crosses property lines and national borders; and river and ocean currents facilitate commercial exchange along with environmental exploitation.

Dunne profiles artist David Smith, whose paintings have something of the quality of recollections or memories; more literally and materially, they recall vintage photographs. Usually quite small in ...scale, they nonetheless evoke large vistas. Often close to monochromatic in appearance and tonally subdued, as though viewed through a filter, they are in fact richly, subtly colored. While it is fair to say that so far Smith is primarily a painter, he has also worked consistently with photography, film and music with, as he reports, no sense of contradiction or disruption. Early on, he thought there might be some friction or difficulty between painting and photography and film. In the event, that never materialized.
