Perception and Artistic Style explores the role of visual processes in the creation and perception of painting and drawing. By looking at the relationship between perception and representation evidence is provided that purely visual processes are a richer source of artistic inspiration than is commonly realised. Many of the obvious variations in artistic style are firmly rooted in visual perception and visual cognition. This book looks at a range of fundamental visual processes and investigates their contribution to major stylistic features of works of art. A wide selection of pictures is considered; ancient, medieval, renaissance, nineteenth and twentieth century and primitive, and both well known and relatively obscure works are examined. The volume includes 86 figures, 13 grey-scale illustrations of artworks and 43 line drawings. This book will be of value to students of perception, students of art and art history, and, since the more technical aspects have been confined to the notes, the general reader who wishes to increase his/her appreciation and understanding of pictorial art.

The representation of visual space in Renaissance art was the expression of the worldview implicit in the Perspectivist analysis of sight, a worldview based upon the geometrization of visual space. If, however, Alhacen and his Perspectivist followers taught Renaissance artists to 'see' the world in such spatial terms, and thus to conceive it as a Euclidean continuum. Written evidence of this "Euclidean continuum" is interpretable in the writings of such well-known Renaissance masters as Alberti, Ghiberti and da Vinci, and equally important visual evidence is evident in the actual images created throughout the period. Alberti's most notable work, On Painting, c1435, for example, employs a model for vision taken directly from Ibn al-Haytham. (Greenstein 1997, p.682) validates a parallelism between Ibn al-Haytham and Alberti's respective models of vision by stating, "Alberti's viewer first sees under aspects [aspecimus]; then recognizes by intuition and finally discerns with greater discrimination. These stages of visual succession imply that Alberti understood spatial perception as a layered and complex cognitive process; one that must account for the perceptual tendencies the viewer applies as a means for interpreting any given scene. There is support for the idea as well that the "Euclidean continuum' informed Alberti' s understanding of the visual pyramid (Lindberg, 1981). The Euclidian solid geometry, attempted in the beginning to do more than replicate what the human eye perceives according to the tenets of Euclidian geometry, which medieval Europeans understood as synonymous with the vision of God. So since perspective pictures replicate geometrically to scale, they not only symbolize but also reproduce their subject matter point by point, so faithfully that from sucha model alone a lifelike three-dimensional copy could be reconstructed. In truth, the first Renaissance observers of linear perspective were so astounded that they excitedly proclaimed it a "miracle". Thus Western Renaissance art has influenced so many non-western cultures not because it is imperialistically imposed but because it works more convincingly more like natural perception than traditional, even locally accepted magic representations. The linear perspective permitted normal human perceive the third dimension by moving about in space, seeing and/ or touching solid objects from a jumble of aspects almost simultaneously, the notion of looking at the world or a picture of it from only a single viewpoint is artificial. E. H. GOMBRICH has argued that even though linear perspective is artificial, there is a natural urge in all humankind to make pictures that do match visual truth. The evolution of pictorial styles, in response to this natural desire, is really a matter of continually correcting individual cultural schema. That was the question's keys to understanding of the new logic of optical geometry done by Edgerton in his chapter about Alberti codification of linear perspective and the new perception that change completely the Western's optical geometry for centuries to come.

Philosophers and artists consider the relevance of Maurice Merleau-Pontys philosophy for understanding art and aesthetic experience. This collection of essays brings together diverse but interrelated perspectives on art and perception based on the philosophy of Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Although Merleau-Ponty focused almost exclusively on painting in his writings on aesthetics, this collection also considers poetry, literary works, theater, and relationships between art and science. In addition to philosophers, the contributors include a painter, a photographer, a musicologist, and an architect. This widened scope offers important philosophical benefits, testing and providing evidence for the empirical applicability of Merleau-Pontys aesthetic writings. The central argument is that for Merleau-Ponty the account of perception is also an account of art and vice versa. In the philosophers writings, art and perception thus intertwine necessarily rather than contingently such that they can only be distinguished by abstraction. As a result, his account of perception and his account of art are organic, interdependent, and dynamic. The contributors examine various aspects of this intertwining across different artistic media, each ingeniously revealing an original perspective on this intertwining.

A complex and fascinating question is why do humans have such strong emotional reactions and human connections to art? Why do viewers become scared, even haunted for days, by a movie monster they know doesn't exist? Why do humans become enthralled by distorted figures and scenes that aren't realistic? Why do viewers have emotional attachments to comic book characters? The answer lies in that, while humans know art is human made artifice, they view and decipher art using the same often nonconscious methods that they use to view and decipher reality. Looking at how we perceive reality shows us how we perceive art, and looking at how we perceive art helps show us how we perceive reality. Written by the prominent art historian and philosopher Cycleback, this book is a concise introduction to understanding art perception, covering key psychological, cognitive science, physiological and philosophical concepts.

This is a book about the journey of an artist from his self-taught years through his retirement years. Within that journey he reviews his art during his undergraduate and graduate education as well as, his years as an illustrator and college educator (chairing the department, teaching studio arts, and presenting the challenges of being a professional artist). This review is made through his created works and personal comments. The artist considers his art to be reflections of his perceptions of life. He has avoided a personal artistic style while matching his approach to the subject and content. Working in a variety of media, his approaches range from photographic realism to non-objective. He not only paints the appearance of subjects but explores the psychology and effects the subjects have on the viewer. The artist recognizes that successful art requires not only talent and insight but also what the viewer brings to the experience. He embraces tradition while incorporating contemporary media, equipment, and change into his inventory of art. This is most obvious in his Retirement Years where media synthesis combines traditional media with computer manipulated images.
