Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with the complex relationship of the modern psychoanalytic subject to his object which is both a material embodiment of the subject in representation (art and literature) and a metaphysical form of the subject as absence. The space of the subject in the world of objects is illustrated through an analysis of Surrealist art and poetry and the continuation of the paradigm in postmodern forms of representation, for which Andrei Voznesensky's poem "Oza" serves as an example.
