It examined the origin of creative motivation and observed the similarities between these forms of creative production.For examples and information the writer researched Salvador Deli and Max Ernst of the Surrealistic schools; Wassily Kandinsky and Jackson Pollock represented the Abstract school. Objectification of unconscious processes was expressed through the inner wishes end dreamstates of both the Surrealists and the Abstractionists. A cohesive tie was discovered between image and imageless painting. Through comparison of the artists used as reference and the confirming series of paintings, this thesis was successfully completed.
