Abstract
Рисование и рассматривание изображений тесно связаны с воображением, фундаментальной характеристикой человеческого интеллекта. Прогресс цифровой техники сегодня делает возможным производство техногенных изображений, но обнаруживается, что здесь все равно нужен какой-то опыт обычного рисования, вдобавок необходимо обладать еще и философским пониманием обстоятельств, приводящих к фигуре «человека рисующего». Между ландшафтом и рисованием существует двойная связь: нарисованный ландшафт часто рассматривается как событие эстетическое, он становится предметом искусствознания; вместе с тем рисование разворачивается внутри ландшафта. Тогда рисунок выступает уже как артефакт, как событие онтологическое, относящееся к порядку бытия. Исследования «человека рисующего» (Homo pictor) – это не узкая область эстетического опыта и художественного воспитания, это проблема философской антропологии. При каких обстоятельствах и для решения каких задач складывалась такая способность рисующего воображения? Ответ на данный вопрос (и соподчиненные ему вопросы) получен с помощью методов феноменологии и на основе обсуждения отдельных работ в области нейробиологии. Актуализирована идея, что рисунок – это вынесенный вовне паттерн восприятия, способный играть роль медиа, служить базой эмоций и чувств. В статье исследование «человека рисующего» привело к формулировке (и / или уточнению) новых для философии проблем: связи когнитивного и аффективного в опыте телесности, связи презентативного и репрезентативного в опыте видения.

Depicting and viewing images are closely related to imagination, a fundamental characteristic of human intelligence. Imagination relies on all the sensuality of a person, but the visual component plays a special role. The progress of digital technology today makes it possible to produce images, but it turns out that one still needs some experience of traditional drawing/painting and also a philosophical understanding of the circumstances leading to the figure of the Homo pictor. There is a double connection between landscape and drawing. A depicted landscape is often regarded as an aesthetic event; it becomes the subject of art studies. However, one can pay attention to the fact that drawing/painting unfolds inside the landscape, and the resulting image is already an artifact, an ontological event related to the level of being. Research of the Homo pictor is not a narrow field of aesthetic experience and artistic education, it is a problem of philosophical anthropology. The latter, relatively speaking, investigates the nature of human beings, their historical development in practice, cognition, communication. The common Latin expressions specify different projections of the species Homo – sapiens, faber, ludence, symbolicus, etc. Homo pictor in this series means a “person drawing/painting”.
