[cze][eng] "Noční motýli", krátká animace vytvořená v roce 1998 Raoulem Servaisem, začíná poctou surrealistickému malíři Paulu Delvauxovi.
V této práci se hodlám zabývat zobrazením těl ve filmu ?Noční motýli?, dále popsat způsob, jakým je vytvořen pocit odstupu, kdy je ve stejnou chvíli jedna věc pociťována jako známá i neznámá a jakým způsobem je umožněno zažít moment, ve kterém se skutečnost a představa, minulost a budoucnost překrývají.
Dále se budu zabývat zobrazením těl složených s fragmentárních obrazů vypůjčených z několika děl Delvauxe, tedy efektem vytvoření pocitu odstupu mezi neklidem odvozeným z obrazů, které je obtížné uchopit a ustálit v jeden celek a současně potěšením pocházejícím z dojmu známosti fragmentárních obrazů.
V této práci se budu zabývat způsobem zobrazení čtyř postav, dále vágností hranice mezi skutečností a představami, překrýváním dvou pohledů, které dávají v pochybnost samotné rozlišení na subjekt a objekt a dvojstranný vztah mezi minulostí a současností ve snímku "Noční motýli".Abstract
"Nocturnal Butterfly" is short animation film which is directed by Raoul Servais. This animation is Servais's homage to Belgian surrealist Paul Delvaux. This paper concerns comparative analysis between the images of Nocturnal Butterfly about male and female, butterfly, mirror, railway station, automaton, last freeze-frame, and motifs of Delvaux's painting.
At first, my research at overall characteristic of surrealism would show that Delvaux's painting shares such characteristic. André Breton who is a key man in surrealism believed that automatism is driving force for artistic creation, so he thought we must look into the unconscious and world of dream to create new aesthetic reality and to comprehend reality just as it is without prejudice caused by reason and rationality. Especially he tried for liberation of the consciousness through automatic drawing, collage and depaysement in surrealistic painting. Delvaux with Magritte used depaysement to give psychological shock to appreciator, so he used mythology as motifs to draw inner landscape unfamiliarly and mysteriously. And though idealized images of women he expressed own desire.
After, I would review other works of Raoul Servais. He has expressed own view in various ways by using new approach for each work. Through criticism at human civilization and mythicism of desire he has utopian attitude even though he has criticized absurdity of actuality circumstance. Nocturnal Butterfly has atmosphere fascinating and mysterious but unfamiliar than clear messages. It seems that the atmosphere of the work considerably results from images taken from Delvaux's painting. And Nocturnal Butterfly shows ambiguous and unfamiliar feeling of surrealism using shooting mode of live action films and photographic images.
Next, I would review images in Nocturnal Butterfly. Delvaux expressed idealized images of male and female as his central figure motives, but Raoul Servais expressed images of male and female as earthly images in Nocturnal Butterfly. Woman with movement in Nocturnal Butterfly is waiting someone and reacting to eyes from man rather than she is idealized being. But She is also mysterious being. She is dancing with another self appeared from mirror as her double, in fantastic and fascinating time. But when train in reality arrives and a man appears, the time is over. The man wearing a hat in Nocturnal Butterfly is like Delvaux?s self-image mixed with scientist and gentleman. The man watches the object of desire, and possesses the object. Delvaux?s painting as last scene in Nocturnal Butterfly seems to be index of photograph image displayed from both surrealism and movie. So it informs that this animation is not over but continues to a piece of reality. The result of analysis of the images in Nocturnal Butterfly shows that Nocturnal Butterfly is the most fascinating and mysterious new animation with weakened completion of narration unlike other works of Raoul Servais.
