DETERMINING THE EFFECT OF SOCIAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS ON WORKS OF ART: DEFINING THEM THROUGH SPECIFIC EXAMPLES

Journal Title: Ancient Land - Year 2024, Vol 6, Issue 5

Abstract

Abstract Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping daily life, ushering in permanent changes across all aspects of human existence. In response, artists are challenged to craft their works with a fresh language of expression. Much like the aftermath of the Industrial Revolution, ongoing warfare, economic strife, and the advent of robot technology continue to loom over modern society, compelling artists to uphold their social responsibilities. The concept of the subconscious, often defined as the unconscious realm of the mind, plays a pivotal role in artistic creation. Critics posit that artists consciously or unconsciously imbue their work with hidden depths. Psychoanalytic theories suggest that when artists tap into their subconscious, their creations serve as mirrors reflecting both the artist's psyche and the viewer's perception. The act of channeling internal struggles, emotional turmoil, and unspoken narratives into their art, whether consciously or not, stands as a fundamental yet enigmatic aspect of creativity. Among the vanguards of 20th-century art, Francisco Goya revealed his subconscious in his paintings, Vincent Van Gogh depicted his mental state, and Pablo Picasso articulated societal traumas through Cubism. Yayoi Kusama, carrying forward the legacies of Goya, Picasso, and Van Gogh, offers a contemporary reinterpretation. Examining her works alongside those of emerging artists through a semiotic lens yields insights into the evolving landscape of artistic expression. For this purpose, in addition to the selected artists in this article, one of the authors (Sefa Cheliksap) has included through the connection of technical and content.
