Creative Work

The process of human activity in which new material and spiritual values are created. Creative Work is a human ability, which appeared in the process of labour, to create (from the material supplied by nature and on the strength of the knowledge of the laws of the objective world) new reality that satisfies the multiform requirements of society. Any kind of labour may become Creative Work. All types of Creative Work are determined by the nature of creative activity: the Creative Work of an inventor, organiser, scientist or artist, etc.

Idealists regard artistic Creative Work as divine obsession (Plato), as movement from the conscious to the subconscious (Schelling), as the life-giving breath of the unconscious (E. Hartmann), as a mystic intuition (Bergson), and as a manifestation of instincts (Freud). According to the Marxist-Leninist theory, Creative Work is a process in which all the spiritual powers of man take part, including imagination, and also the skill which is required to realise a creative design and is acquired by training and practice.
