Principles of Visual Perception (Art Reference) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Combining psychology, art theory and cross-cultural study, this book explores the ways that our minds construct meaning from visual information. There are chapters on how the mind attributes meaning to things and events, the structure and functioning of the eye and the brain, how we perceive colour, space, depth and distance, motion, the development and mechanics of photography and how the camara effects our perception of reality and the way we think about the world, the incursion of electronic and mass-communication media, and finally, on making and looking at works of art and learning to see more creatively.
