Readymades of the Nature, the Preceding Models of the Human Artistic Creation

Summary/Abstract: The article highlights the crucial importance of the models given by the human being and by the infinite formal variety of nature, fore running the effective act of creation, of the artistic and symbolic object’s manual creation. The natural object suggesting a presence was recognized by the human being based on its similarities with the man himself, based on the known formal vegetal or animal universe. Stressing these elements, the primitive artist, the shaman, was practicing and developing his creative mobility, inventing crafts, tools and techniques to process the materials. There are presented and commented such series of geological forms populating in a large number the Romanian Carpathians.The role given to this type of formalization was almost always the one of a cult, of a vehicle to connect the community with the gods or a messenger of the gods. They played a decisive role occupying a central place within the prehistoric settlements spiritual life. The dimensional range of these settings is unlimited; the smaller ones are placed within the community as a common spiritual good.The spiritual gifts man was endowed with by conception, helped him to create. The creation’s principle “following God’s image and resemblance” is applied to all types of human items made by hand which populate his universe.
