Adamowska, Joanna2024-01-132024-01-132022-12Warstwy Nr 5 (2022), s. 38-472544-4824https://repozytorium.ur.edu.pl/handle/item/9633The article is the interpretation of the film The Black Swan by Darren Aronofsky. According to the author, by portraying the fate of Nina Sayers the director shows the dynamics of psychic processes of Shadow integration (as understood by Jung’s analysis) and positive desintegration (as understood by Kazimierz Dąbrowski) that accompany the creative evolution of a brilliant individual. According to Adamowska both those occurences enable the main character to grow both as a person and as an artist. The author also reconstructs the vision of art as presented in the film that refers to, coming from Friedrich Nietzsche’s The Birth of Tragedy, the dichotomy between the Apollonian and the Dionysian art.polAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/Darren AronofskyCzarny łabędźCarl Gustaw JungKazimierz DąbrowskiFryderyk NietzscheCieńdezintegracja pozytywnasztuka apollińska i dionizyjskaBlack SwanCarl Gustav JungShadow integration (Jung)Apollonian and Dionysian element (Nietzsche)article
