Abstract
This paper deals with archetypal female principle and its representations in sculpture and painting from the Neolithic period to modern times. By the intertwining and equating the great mother goddess- mother, model houses and furnaces (which is closely examined by Chausidis) the authors have followed up on existing research and the later periods and individual cultures, including the Christian Middle Ages, and contemporary art. The authors sought to examine through a comparative analysis of the relationship between basic and archetypal motifs and women shape who have appeared over the centuries in the same or partially altered shapes in visual culture, and connection in visual culture with examples from contemporary art in Serbia. Given the complexity of the subject, the authors have chosen some examples throughout history for the purposes of this paper, as well as two contemporary Serbian artists: Mladen Srbinovic and Jugoslav Ocokoljic. The authors identify existing and unchanged relationship between ancient depictions of women as mother with contemporary visual arts, which indicates that the archetypal images of male and female principles have remained unchanged and that the need for their display still present.
