Towards the Non-Obvious: Between Artistic Creation and Documentary

Summary/Abstract: The following article constitutes an attempt at an analytical discussion concerning the categories of artistic creation and documentary, situated within the iconic scope of artistic expression. The angle which structures the entire argument as well as the presented conclusions are predicated on the conviction regarding the contextual character of any type of experience, which can be never concretized outside of a particular situation. As a result, the particular connotations and senses associated with certain concepts are never invariable and timeless, but rather inherently situational. To paraphrase: the temporality of the senses of an artistic or documentary creation appears to be perpetually shaped within the scope of a particular epistemic and discursive infrastructure, through which it is inevitably determined and updated at the same time.
