Organization of Space, Art, Culture as Unity JF - Between JA - BW VL - 1 IS - 1 SE - Writing and Visions: Threshold Crossings DO - 10.13125/2039-6597/116 UR - https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/between/article/view/116 AB - In the early decades of the 20th century, the reflection about the deyatel’ kul’tury is one of the most important chapters of the russian philosophy: the conception of space and time proposed by Pavel A. Florenskij – as his result in the teatrise Analiz prostranstvennosti i vremeni – is a relevant part of it. Science, philosophy and art find their roots in life, and the study of the space is the start to understand themselves. Deyatel’ kul’tury, according Florenskij, does culture: he assumes the task of planting border’s poles, outlining the shortest paths through a system of isopotential lines. Through references to the debate between Symbolists, in the Analiz we can read in a new way the origin of sculpture, theatre, cinema, paint, poetry: the organization of the space can reach man’s consciousness, but the space already exists, as exists the life itself in which the art has its roots.
