The next analyses repetitions of the human body in the three artists’ Works, relating them to processes of considering something sacred or non-sacred. From the first decades of the twentieth century on, there has been a progressive emphasis on a “non-religious feeling of sacredness”, connected to Art and to its apreciation. The human body that repeats itself, unfolds itself, or migrates from on space to another, relates to Eros and to Tanatos. Death’s representation, sometimes, because of its excess, makes its owns representation non-sacred.
