영문 초록

Coincidence is a demonstrative part of Picasso's reality and artistic sense. In his works principles of combination of real subject matter arise together with incidental contrivances of style. Tangible objects perceived as bicycle handlebar and seat are given a new interpretation as their accepted formal aesthetic values are creatively combined to form a new symbol. It is this process of visual interpretation of form, reinterpretation and merging which forms the basis of the formative conditions of the work which fundamentally characterizes two principles of creation. One being coincidence the other being combination. The handlebar and seat are discovered by chance whereas the emergent artwork is a conscious combination. Consequently in the incidental nature of the elements inherent properties and propensity for creation are integrated and interpreted. Through the use of these objects a symbolic state is conveyed, which is beyond the meaning of their utility value. The striking impact of < Bull's head> is certainly owing to its simplicity, which is able to make us forget the process mentioned above. Due to the frontal view of the visage the silhouette of a homed head takes immediate form in the viewer's consciousness. This optical illusion is rooted in a schematic or formal naming capacity, which makes possible the recognition of a homed figure. Namely when one combines the vertical middle-positioned 'seat-head' with the linear figure of the 'handlebar-horns' there arises as a whole an extremely reduced visual cipher of a head with homs. The iconic quality of artistic imagination opens up every possible form from those possible in Nature. Much like an actual life experience by which precisely that which is unexpected and unrelated can bring about liberating effects. Fantasy is closely tied to perception. It is fostered by surprising experiences. It becomes inductive and engenders experimentation. The reinterpretation of the ele
