Abstract: The article proposes a new model of artistic communication. The author believes that the theory of communication is quite well developed. It builds a number of communication models, usually based on several approaches (the main ones are semiotic, informational, socio‒psychological, and engineering), but with an emphasis on a particular one. The author called the proposed one more model complex, it is built within the framework of the author's concept of "methodology with limited liability". The peculiarity of this concept is the analysis of thinking and creativity (in this case in art), mediated by cultural studies, semiotics, personality psychology. The complex model of artistic communication includes four projections: semiotic, artistic reality, socio-psychological and spiritual (speech). Depending on the type of work or artistic phenomenon being studied, as well as the specifics of the research task, certain projections will come to the fore, while the rest manifest themselves in the structure of the content. The concept of the U. Eco allows us to analyze artistic communication within the framework of a semiotic approach, but the author believes that if the task is to understand the essence of art and the features of artistic works, the semiotic approach is clearly insufficient. Four layered reconstructions of artistic communication are outlined: the first, the work as an artistic reality (the first projection); the second, the work as the realization of expressive means (semiotic projection); the third, the work as a way of socialization (the third projection); the fourth, the narrative (speech) of the artist as a condition of his contact with the audience (the fourth projection). At the same time, cases from Meir Shalev's novels "Two Bears Came Out of the Forest", "Fontanella" and "Esav", as well as Shalev's interview given to the magazine "Lehaim" are used as empirical material. The author argues that, given the semiotic and anthropological nature of art, it largely boils down to artistic communication.
