Summary/Abstract: The contemporary human is in an eternal transformation, in an unending metamorphosis, he or she projects his/her life and his/her own image in countless fictitious games, plays roles in imagined situations. He/she, though using false conscious representations, will obtain the right results because he/she operates with his/her creations or fictions as if they were real realities. This is social creativity. If all these are real-life defence elements, fireworks that help the individual to anticipate certain situations, to figure the effects of certain volitional impulses, to communicate and to act freely within the scenic arts, the artistic creativity involves a paradoxical relationship between creative freedom and rigorous laws. Artistic creativity is part of the artist/actor’s ability to produce ideas, new and original solutions, appropriate to the given problems and circumstances, being a first step in the innovation process. Thus, both creative imagination and artistic creativity become original components in the creation process and implicitly in the contemporary performing arts.
