VIRTUAL REALITY IN TRAINING SPECIALISTS OF THE INDUSTRY OF CULTURE AND ARTS

Abstract

The article examines the conceptual foundations of virtual reality in the field of culture and art – both in socio-philosophical and practical terms. The concept and activities of virtual museums in different countries are described in detail and the possibilities of using virtual reality technologies, already tested in modern museums, in training specialists in the field of culture and art, are analyzed. It is shown that virtual reality has the potential to best implement the modern “subject-subject” concept of education in the field of culture and art, developing cognitive skills and creativity of learners.
