Visual Thinking
Playful Identities
In this edited volume, eighteen scholars examine the increasing role of digital media technologies in identity construction through play. Going beyond computer games, this interdisciplinary collection argues that present-day play and games are not only appropriate metaphors for capturing postmodern human identities, but are in fact the means by which people create their identity. From discussions of World of Warcraft and Foursquare to digital car…

Buildings and Human Figures Aware of Each Other
The visual relationship between buildings and human beings is treated as the interaction between two systems: the reality system, dealing with the physical world in and of itself, and the apprehension system, dealing with the world looked at and represented by viewers. The two systems interact in a unitary physical world and can also be depicted in the visual arts
Wolfgang Köhler and gestalt theory
Wolfgang Köhler and gestalt theory
This article presents an English translation (from the German) of one of gestalt psychology's most significant documents, first published in 1920 in Wolfgang Kohler's Die physischen Gestalten in Ruhe und im stationdren Zustand (The Physical Gestalten at Rest and in a Stationary State). The book it introduces both embodies Kohler's extension of gestalt theory into new domains and did much to ensure the broad impact of these ideas and approaches. T…

The Body and the Self
Engineering a New Architecture
This work argues that engineering in the mid-1990s is the unrecognized avant-garde in architectural design, and that new materials and structural systems are creating new aesthetic principles
The Split and the Structure
Rudolf Arnheim's great forte is his ability to illuminate the perceptual processes that go into the making and reception of artworks - painting, sculpture, architecture, and film. Over the years, his pioneering mode of 'reading' art from a unique scientific/philosophic perspective has garnered him an established and devoted audience. That audience will take pleasure in Arnheim's most recent collection of essays, one that covers a range of topics …
The Two Authenticities of the Photographic Media
dramatic episode in a recent court trial in Los Angeles has made us explicitly aware of the juridical, ethical, and aesthetic aspects of authenticity in the use of the photographic media. videotape taken of the action of four white police officers who had stopped and manhandled a black motorist was used as evidence to show whether the police had used unacceptable violence or whether behavior was appropriate to what duty required. During the trial…

A survey and appreciation of 43 Belluschi (dean architecture, MIT through 1973) churches with a selection of seven of his essays.

Leonardo da Vinci
This study is the first to consider the whole body of Leonardo's works with an eye to a comprehensive interpretation that combines both cultural history and the history of details. According to Maiorino, Leonardo's was a myth making mode of activity that had a Daedalian range and affected art and technology alike. As both artist and inventor, Leonardo did not separate reason from experience, empiricism from abstraction, an attitude Maiorino chara…

Changing Images of Pictorial Space
This is a history of one of the central organizing principles in all schools and periods of art. It traces the evolution of the conception and the depiction of space in European and American painting and the ways in which this evolution reflects ideological changes in society over 2000 years
Rethinking the Forms of Visual Expression
Robert Sowers begins this book by questioning our conception of the visual artspainting, sculpture, and architectureas autonomous, archetypal entities that can be defined independent of one another in terms of their materials and techniques. He cuts through the limits of categorization we have come to accept to lay the groundwork for a coherent theory of the relation between the visual arts. He proposes that we treat the pictorial, the sculptural…
To the Rescue of Art
Never before published essays by the widely admired psychologist of art. Arnheim spiritedly asserts art's fundamental achievements. Rudolf Arnheim has spent a lifetime analyzing the basic psychological principles that make works of visual art meaningful, stirring, indispensable, and lasting. But recent fashionable attitudes and theories about art, he argues, are undermining the foundation of artistic achievement itself. The essays collected in th…

On Information Available in Pictures
The author reviews two current conflicting theories of what a picture is: (1) that it consists of a sheaf of light rays coming to a station point orperceiver, each corresponding to a spot of color on the picture surface and hence that the picture can standfor a real object or scene insofar as the rays from the picture are the same as the rays from the real object; (2) that it consists of a set of symbols, more or less like words, and the perceive…

Inverted Perspective in Art
The author draws renewed attention to inverted perspective because it can serve to illustrate two fundamentally different ways of interpreting pictorial form and it has found new applications in the art of our century. He analyzes several examples of artists’ works made in the past and in the present to show that the illusionistic doctrine is not well suited for dealing with formal features that contradict the optical projection of three-dimensio…
Goethe's Botanical Writings
Progress in Color Composition
The structural relations between pairs of tertiary colors are used to explore concord and discord in color composition. Recent demonstrations by Garau have extended these color relations to those between foreground and background, thereby enabling him to apply the structural relations between tertiaries to the conditions generating perceptual transparency. An example of paradoxical transparency in modern painting is given

On the Application of the Golden Ratio in the Visual Arts
The Golden Ratio or Section or Mean for a line divided into a shorter length a and a longer length b is determined by alb = b/(a + b). The value of the Ratio is the irrational number (/ 5-1)/2 = 0.618.... A Golden Rectangle is one in which the Ratio applies to its sides of length a and b. The ratios of the successive Fibonacci series 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ... oscillate rapidly to the limiting value 0.618, the Golden Ratio [1]. There are t…

On Entropy and Art
Art and Visual Perception
Since its publication fifty years ago, this work has established itself as a classic. It casts the visual process in psychological terms and describes the creative way one's eye organizes visual material according to specific psychological premises. In 1974 this book was revised and expanded, and since then it has continued to burnish Rudolf Arnheim's reputation as a groundbreaking theoretician in the fields of art and psychology.
Visual Perception of Form
On Order, Simplicity and Entropy
After perusing the various comments generated by my book Entropy and Art: An Essay on Disorder and Order [1], the readers of Leonardo have probably decided either to get hold of the book and see for themselves or to forget about some of the highly sophisticated discussions of issues involving the domains of physics and engineering. Therefore, instead of prolonging the play of claim and counterclaim unduly, I would like below to use some remarks b…

From Contrast to Assimilation
The authors, using physiological arguments, discuss the approximate nature of the concept of perceptual object color constancies, which are thought by some to obtain regardless of illumination level and quality. The phenomenon of contrast, so well exemplified by works of Claude Monet and Josef Albers, is cited as evidence of nonconstancy. Experimentally observed response of individual retinal cells to very small light beams is used to support the…

Perception of Perspective Pictorial Space from Different Viewing Points
After referring briefly to the topological transformations perceived when paintings are viewed from positions other than the orthogonal, the author investigates a problem specific to pictures that are based on central perspective. Central perspective prescribes the distance at which a pictorial construction is projected correctly. But apart from distance, is there also a particular viewing point required for optically correct viewing? A problem a…
