Сексуалност и смърт при Олександър Довженко

Abstract

The following article analyses the idea of seeing and observing, of making the seen oments and objects rational, their keeping and reflexion in the memory in some of Olexandr Dovzhenko’s art pieces. The text also retraces the reconstruction of the excessive recollections (such as sexuality and death) in other, alien milieu. In these aspects Dovzhenko’s narratives are investigated throughout exemplary for the modern philosophy books of George Bataille (“Story of the Eye” and “Erotism: Death and Sensuality”) and Michel Foucault (“The History of Sexuality”).
