Abstract | Ovaj završni rad je nastao tijekom drugog semestra kolegija Slikarstvo kao rad na temu Slova i znakovi. Rad Katalog dijeli se u dva dijela od kojih je glavni Katalog koji se sastoji od 20 presavijenih stranica, kolažem obloženih apstraktnih plakata ušivenih u format „kataloga“. Na glavni se rad još nadovezuju dva zasebna rada na napetom natron-papiru veličine 120 x 200 cm pod nazivom Trošim više i Kupujem manje, obrađeni tehnikom kolaža kao i prvi dio rada. Rad počinje kao reakcija na opće ekonomsko-političko stanje, na inflaciju izazvanu čimbenicima poput rata u Ukrajini koji ubrzava ekonomsku krizu prethodno stimuliranu pandemijskim stanjem u svijetu. Također je prisutna autoričina kritika na statično i obeshrabreno hrvatsko društvo čiji je autorica dio čineći na taj način rad i samokritičkim. Autorica ovog završnog rada kao uzor uzima dadaističke radove u tehnici fotomontaže među kojima se posebice ističe umjetnica Hannah Höch. Umjetnica i autorica rade svoje radove kao komentar i reakciju na stanje krize u svojim okruženjima služeći se tehnikom kolaža: autorica koristeći kataloge prepune slogana koji nemaju dodir sa stvarnošću, a Hannah Höch koristila je novine ispunjene izmjenjenim fotografijama kojima se promovirala ondašnja politička propaganda u Njemačkoj. Razlika je međutim u izvedbi jer Hannah Höch aktivno/angažirano je napadala, provocirala i izrugivala se vladajućim ličnostima, dok autorica naslovljenog završnog rada pod krinkom neutralnosti izražava svoje unutarnje stanje kompozicijskim kaosom i potenciranjem boje. |
Abstract (english) | The work discussed in this bachelor’s degree thesis was created during the second semester of the Painting course as a work on the topic Letters and signs. The work Katalog is divided into two parts, of which the main one is the Katalog, which consists of 20 folded pages, collage-covered abstract posters sewn into the "catalogue" format. The main work is followed by two separate pieces on tensioned natron paper each the size 120 x 200 cm called Spending more and Buying less, processed using the same collage technique as does the first part of the work. The work begins as a reaction to the general economic and political situation caused by factors; such as the war in Ukraine, which accelerates the economic crisis previously stimulated by the pandemic state of the world. The author's criticism of the static and discouraged Croatian society of which the author is a part is also present, thus making the work self-critical. As a point of influence, the author of this final paper takes Dadaist works in the photomontage technique, particularly those of the artist Hannah Höch. The artist and the author make their works as a comment and reaction to the state of crisis in their surroundings using the collage technique: the author using catalogs full of slogans that have no correlation with the state of reality, and Hannah Höch with newspapers filled with manipulated photographs that at the time were used to promote political propaganda in Germany. The difference, however, is in the execution, because Hannah Höch is actively engaged in attacking, provoking and mocking the ruling figures, while the author of the titled work, creates under the guise of neutrality, expressing her inner state with compositional chaos and visual intensifying of the color. |
