În prezentul articol autorul analizează sintetic noţiunea de pictură de gen şi cea de natură statică. Concluziile şi polemicele cercetătorilor demonstreză că acest topos artistic nu este valorificat pe deplin. Tentaţia staticului, iată ideea principală de studiu a autoarei care evidenţiază că epocile sunt reflectate de staticul pictural, în pofida lipsei de antropocentrism şi motive metafizice. Este abordată problema interferenţelor dintre obiect / subiect în natura moartă, obiectul ce se propulsează în transcendental prin sugestie, referenţialitate antropomorfă. Articolul se referă, astfel, atât la istoria şi teoria artei cât şi la critica de artă.

In the present article we synthetically analyze the notion of genre picture and genre of the still life; we present the reception of them by different artistic periods, determine some stylistic performances and conclude by personal interpretation of the given problem. Misunderstandings and polemics based on the studied subject do not make us to reject but, quite the contrary, give us an artistic topos that is unvalued / undiscovered completely. The temptation of the statics – that is the main idea of our research, all the epochs were tried by the picture statics even without anthropocentric and metaphysical motives. We are preoccupied by the relation between the object and subject in the still life, the object that pushes in a transcendental sphere through the suggestion, the anthropomorphous correlation. Multiple voices that were pronounced concerning this theme of history and theory of art enter into the field of the picture criticism and proclaim the impossibility to exhaust the problem which remains open and always capable for re-formulations and re-visions.
