Sažetak
This text deals with the differences between applied puppetry and puppetry as an art form, with particular reference to animation. Animation is a key concept in puppet theatre. There is an important difference between, on the one hand, animation in religious rites and children’s games, and on the other in puppet theatre as an art form. The first approach may be termed a “performer-centred” and the second an “audience-centred” approach. In children's games and the worship of cult figures the puppets are animated only by the belief of the child or the believer that the puppets or dolls are alive, regardless of their mobility or static state. They are characterised by the absence or complete neglect of any audience. Professional puppet theatre is completely audience centred and its only task is to establish complete communication with the audience, to communicate to it an idea and the emotion of the work being performed. In education and therapy both principles are encountered, depending on the situation and the desired goal. When a performance is not intended for an audience, the performer may behave towards the puppet as he or she desires. But as soon as an audience is involved, the performance must respect at least the minimum laws of the theatre and puppetry, in order to communicate with the public.
