In the current context of globalization and modernization of all spheres of public life, education is of particular importance in the way of professional development of the individual. The choice of future profession is one of the first independent young man’s moves in conditions of highly personal and social significance. Rational vocational self-determination, on the one hand, effectively contributes to the socialization of man in society, and on the other – the adequate development of professional sphere in the society, where one of actual problems is the formation of the spiritual world of the individual as the level indicator of its civil and aesthetic and ethical positions. Art education makes a significant contribution to solving the problem of development of young generation creativity, its personal and intellectual qualities, aimed at training of intellectual, spiritual and moral man, oriented on activities in the field of fine and decorative arts, costumes and textiles, design [4, p. 235].

Professional art education includes:

– Educations of artistic taste and evaluation criteria in the context of spiritual, moral and aesthetic ideals.

The most important task of art education system becomes a wide-preparation of a competent professional in the field of art with universal integrity, able to solve social problems by incorporating the human into different cultural and historical environments (object-space, communication, visual significant, etc.) [3, p. 23].

Currently the problem of vocational self-determination “is manifested in the need to overcome the existing contradictions between the objective needs of society and inadequately formed subjective professional aspirations of young people and their parents’ [6, p. 112]. Professions in the arts are prestigious now and sought-after on the labor market, as designer, fashion designer, stylist, artist-maker of decorative-applied works of art. However, in view of the mounting refocusing from professional interests to personal-consumption requests, related to the implementation of the material needs, the first choice of secondary school graduates are professions that have the lowest labor intensity in the presence of a stable payment. The dominant trend is the desire to fulfill their needs in achieving the social and material well-being and prestige.Choosing a profession in the field of art reveals systematic problems, aimed at finding ways to realize human capabilities, taking into account actual and future opportunities.
