ФЕРНАНДО АРРАБАЛЬ У ИСТОКОВ «ПАНИЧЕСКОГО» ДВИЖЕНИЯ

Panic movement formed in Paris is considered to be one of the absurd movements of the second half of the XX century. Named after the god Pan it carries all the corresponding features: joy, confusion, humour, fear and euphoria. Its ideological leader Fernando Arrabal is still living in Paris and continues to write his works following the theory of ”panic” which main idea is to give all the necessary freedom of creation to the artist. The concept of ”panic” is still confusing because it has no dogmatic basis and according to its logic the ”panic” movement was dissolved the day when the book of F.Arrabal ”The panic” appeared. The present article gives the outline of the ”panic” theory and artistic tendencies of its creators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
