الخيال و دوره في تحديد المنظور التشكيلي في الفن الغربي بالجزائر

Abstract EN

This study deals the issue of imagination, which played a very important role in determining the plastic perspective in Western art in Algeria, especially when it comes to the image of woman that the Orientalist artist dealt with an angle that Eastern criticism saw as completely false, This is for the way to address the issue of the harem In which the artist mixed reality with fiction To form a new artistic image, and the truth is that the plastic artist is not forced to record reality as it is like a camera does, for art is further and deeper than its function being limited to simulation only.

Was the aim of the Western artist really to falsify reality by employing imagination in artistic work? What is the aesthetic function of the imagination in the artistic image? What is the real role of the imagination in the works of Eugene Delacroix and Nasreddine Dinet?
