Summary/Abstract: This study is devoted to the formation of the linguistic picture of the world. The works of art belonging to prominent authors constitute the national picture of the world as well as the artistic picture of the world as part of the national one. The study is based on the plot of the «American» novel «Okay» by B.A. Pilnyak, which considerably influenced the image of America (an informal name of country) in the Russian literature of the XXth century. The aim of the study is to describe the structure and the content of the artistic concept «America». The use of the descriptive method, the contents analysis, the component analysis and the methods of statistical and comparative studies allows to identify the main types of information. The understanding of the artistic concept «America» and the results of its linguistic representation are relevant for the contrastive studies of the national and the artistic pictures of the world.
