Abstract

This study is an attempt to comprehend the heterogeneity of art experts in modern Russian media, related to the specifics of the development of the media environment, certain historical and structural changes in the media, which include technological and institutional changes in the media, professional changes in journalism and in art journalism in particular, as well as changes in relations between media producers and the audience. Changes in the modern information space lead to a transformation of understanding of the authority and experience of an expert in the field of art and culture, to the leveling of the boundaries between professional and amateur specialists in this field.

Key words: art, expert, journalist, art-critic, art historian
