Abstract
Modernist deconstruction of classical Renaissance view has created conditions for the image to be understood as a multi-relational structure, constructed on the basis of mutual relations of image elements (Klee), all of which were only created visual objects (Cézanne). Modern art styles from Cubism to Abstract Painting can thus be regarded as a systematic research of creative content the possibilities of visual display as picture elements and their relationships to the spatio-temporal expression of ideas (Cubism), movement (Futurism) , construction (Constructivism and De Stijl) in harmony (Kupka, Delaunay) and psychological effects (from the Fauvism to Expressionism), etc.
By applying the same method of creating relationships, this time between image objects (figures), Duchamp's trance object from its original environment and putting it into new contexts (ready-made), which continued to be systematically developed by the Surrealists. We do understand both levels as structurally linked and built on the principle of mutual relations of elements and objects.
This has allowed us to develop pedagogical methodology and understand the content of the image based as operated by the students with visual objects and visual elements. The methodology, based on the examination of variations of these sessions is technically easily accessible with the application of vector image digital editors.
It helps to understand visual concepts for 'in-time' media such as film and video and is a rational approach to support the development of creativity.
