Abstract: We develop homological techniques for finding explicit combinatorial expressions of finite-type cohomology classes of spaces of knots in $R^n,nge3,$ generalizing Polyak--Viro formulas for invariants (i.e. 0-dimensional cohomology classes) of knots in $R^3$. As the first applications we give such formulas for the (reduced mod 2) {em generalized Teiblum--Turchin cocycle} of order 3 (which is the simplest cohomology class of {em long knots} $R^{1}hookrightarrow{R}^n$ not reducible to knot invariants or their natural stabilizations), and for all integral cohomology classes of orders 1 and 2 of spaces of {em compact knots} $S^{1}hookrightarrow{R}^n$. As a corollary, we prove the nontriviality of all these cohomology classes in spaces of knots in $R^3.$
