Socio-cultural factors played a considerable role in the formation of Chechen pictorial art of the 1960s-80s. Its formation and development began with the people’s return from displacement and the restoration of statehood in 1957, which prompted an upsurge in all spheres of activity. The idea of socio-cultural imperative in conveying the existential experience of the artist-creator through artistic images is substantiated. Particular attention is paid to the national idea as a leading factor in the formation of statehood, the development of society and its humanitarian sphere. Methods of axiological, culturological, structural and functional analysis allowed us to draw conclusions about the compliance of paintings with the basic, objectively determined principles of reflecting objective reality in artistic form. It has been established that the paintings of Chechen painters contain a complex of various emotional and personal impressions and, at the same time, objectively determined principles of human social life.
