ILUZIJA I STVARNOST U UMJETNOSTI
ILLUSION AND REALITY IN ART

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the relationship between illusion and reality in art from ancient to contemporary times. Illusionism appeared and developed through art, but the turning point in the relationship between art and illusion occurred at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century. In the twentieth century, illusionism became the preoccupation of media technologies. The paper investigates new modern and contemporary art tasks related to illusionism and reality. In increasing cooperation of art, mass media and technologies, art is not devoid of trends in the media industry. Finally, this paper considers the return to photorealism and simulation in art. It points out that art retains the difference in identity in the relationship between illusion and reality, differentiating art in creating illusionism from mass media technologies of the twentieth century.
