Abstract

The modern city is not only a physical space, but also a complex system of signs, images and visual messages. In conditions of high density of information flows, visual communication becomes one of the key mechanisms of social interaction, spatial orientation and the formation of urban identity. This determines the relevance of philosophical understanding of visual communication as an integral element of the urban environment.
