Abstract

Pojam „fokusa“ koji sam izabrala za naslov, vrlo je širokog značenja. Pokušat ću ga pojasniti i obraditi kroz njegove sinonime i stručnu literaturu kako bih pobliže opisala o kojem sam značenju pojma razmišljala u trenutka kada sam ga izabrala za temu svog diplomskog rada. Predstavit ću neke od umjetnika i njihove radove koji su mi olakšali putovanje kroz nepregledne mogućnosti izbora obrade slikarske površine i svojim radovima ukazali na specifične mogućnosti tretiranja slikarskih elemenata boje, mrlje i plohe. Predstavit ću simbole kruga i kružnice koje sam u prvim skicama spontano povezala s pojmom fokusa, a tek naknadno spoznala njihova značenja. I za kraj, opisat ću postupak rada, tj. slikarski proces stvaranja serije slika pod nazivom „Fokus“.

Abstract (english)

The concept of “focus”, which I have chosen as the theme of this paper, has a very broad meaning. I will try to define and elaborate it through synonyms and by using academic literature to further describe the meaning of this concept I had in mind when I chose it to as the theme of my thesis. I will introduce some of the artists and their works, which have made my journey through the vast possibilities of treating the painting surface easier. Their work pointed me to the specific possibilities of treating painting elements such as color, patch and sheet. I will elaborate on the symbol of circle, which I spontaneously connected to the concept of focus in my initial sketches, and only subsequently realized its meaning. To conclude, I will describe the workflow process, i.e. the painting process behind the series of paintings named “Focus”.
