Recycled realities : the exploration of source matieral in contemporary pictorial artDu Plessis, Daniel 06 1900 (has links)
The use in pictorial art of visual reference to prototypes and conventions in encoding
reality forms the crux of the theoretical research. The theoretical component complements
the practical research, which focuses on the interplay between perceptions of 'reality' and
visual conventions in landscape art. The existence of diverse realities, based on individual
ideological and sociocultural perspectives, is acknowledged. In encoding these realities, artists
may draw on a reservoir of stylistic, formal and conceptual prototypes. Visual reference
constitutes an allegorical procedure because the artist refers to an antecedent text in the
representation of a particular 'reality'. Pictorial signs also rely on conventions to convey
meaning. Both the perception and the artistic recreation of different realities may thus be
regarded as recycling processes. In a world saturated with visual information, reference to
prototypes is a powerful procedure which assists contemporary pictorial artists in the creation
of meaningful images of current realities. / Art History, Visual Arts & Musicology / M.A. (Fine Arts)
