Extremely broad interpretation of pictures of the world comes out not only from the system of human knowledge, but also from a cognitive process in the system of the existing worldview and of understanding of the world.The process of formation of structure and different directions of modern cultorological knowledge in Ukraine are examined. The attention is paid to the fact that the subject range of cultorology can be defined depending on the aims of cultorological perception.In the article the reveiling of the inscape, integration structures on the symbolic and conceptual levels are shown as the problem of analysis of the processes of development and functioning of culture. It is stated that transformation of culture influences the exposure theoretical structure of the model of culture that is studied. Model of the culture evolution becomes abstractive ideal construction that reflects modern human outlook in its real and unreal perception of the world.Attention is paid to the fact that in the process of cognition human creates his own model of the world, where the world pictures reflect the different forms of life, natural, social, cultural, political and others. In addition, the world picture is part of the world model, imprint of different verges of a real life, where the spiritual turns into material and vice versa. The world model consists of innumerable amount of the world pictures which human needs to determine his location in the world and conscious integration into the real existence.It is stated in the research that there were pre-conditions of revision of the world picture in science and different practices of the XX century, both in natural science disciplines and at more general level.
