Gurevich, P. S. Absurd but Beautiful
Abstract:
French author and philosopher Ablert Camus is often called the ‘artist of absurdity’. Albert Camus
wrote that the feeling of absurdity awaits us at every corner. This feeling cannot be clearly defined but it
is real. Mid XX century faced a new question about the meaning of beauty. Indeed, the Second World War
caused enormous deaths and destructions and made us think about the fortune and purpose of art. There
was even a thought that it would be impossible to come back to the usual beauty concepts after the horror of
detention camps.
Keywords:
