Research Project “Man–Car / Car–Man: Life – Science – Art”

Vol.2,No.2(2011)

Abstract
The relationship between humans and the automobile forms an important element of contemporary civilization and modern lifestyle. The social and cultural behavioural patterns based on this relationship are thus a challenging topic for holistic anthropological, psychological, sociological or technological research. Such research was launched in 2011 at the Anthropology Institute of the Faculty of Science of Masaryk University in Brno in co-operation with scholars from other academic institutions. In addition to the anthropological study of the automobile phenomenon in daily life in various social and cultural contexts, the investigation also comprises the reflections on this topic in the works of designers, painters, graphic artists, sculptors, photographers and writers. Those artists who had been addressed have started creating new and original works since early 2011.
