The modern picture of the world is experiencing a permanent transformation, adapting to the influence of various globalization factors, the dominance of information technology, dynamic development of a material environment, etc. In these circumstances, the society faces a problem of a technocratic knowledge domination without attention to humanitarian knowledge. In this context, the role of spiritual development is lost, as well as the role of moral growth, human values, the importance of cultural traditions. The timely problem of modern human knowledge development is considered and studied by the scientific community. But in practice, this trend more clearly represented in Asian countries, where even the technocratic component is based on a tradition, ethno-cultural experience, national art heritage. Therefore, this article addresses the problem of the national art schools development through the integration of cultures on the example of the Central Asian countries as well as Russia's role in the development of national art in the XX century through the system of art education.
