Evoluția limbajului reprezentării tridimensionale a torsului uman în rondebosse, altorelief, relief plat și sgraffito, până la desen
Language evolution of tridimensional representation of the human torso in ronde-bosse, high relief, flat relief and sgraffito, until drawing

Summary/Abstract: The article describes the evolutionary stages of symbolic representationarts from the beginning of this creative human manifestation. Since early representation, clumsy in ronde-bosse at the beginning of representation arts,specific to ceramics and sculpture, either modelled or carved, plastic language has gradually evolved. As a first step, it slided into high relief, getting closer to an inevitable condition - the dependence on a reference plan, or a base fromwhich relief starts to come away into space; taller at the beginning, closer to itsorigin in ronde-bosse, gradually becoming flattened.The artist’s power of abstraction reaches through practice new highs;the culmination of this complex abstract perception process, beyond its physical and tangible data, is to convey all these to the image receiver. Following the transformation of the representation technique from flat relief into sgraffito, andafter a transition period of joining with painting, these two forms get completelyseparated, becoming independent. They eventually give rise to the painting and drawing fields, which inevitably will work on together.The work also approaches the evolution of representation languages specific to ceramics and to sculpture, of the working techniques, of the specific tools and transposing materials, these areas reaching levels impossible to predict.
