 * backup first.
 * ps:
    artisteer is a software to create themes – your theme seems to be based 
   on this. probably ok, when you just use the created teme as it is – not so ideal
   if you want to modify things.

 * They are right there, in the code you posted:
 *     ```
       <form method="get" name="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/">
       <input type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" name="s" style="width: 95%;" />
       <span class="art-button-wrapper">
               <span class="l"> </span>
               <span class="r"> </span>
               <input class="art-button" type="submit" name="search" value="<?php _e('Search', 'kubrick'); ?>"/>
       </span>
   
       </form>
       ```

 * Artiseer is the program used to generate that Theme.
