Description
Why do we enjoy art? What inspires us to create artistic works? How can brain science help us understand our taste in art?
The Psychology of Art provides an eclectic introduction to the myriad ways in which psychology can help us understand and appreciate creative activities. Exploring how we perceive everything from colour to motion, the book examines art-making as a form of human behaviour that stretches back throughout history as a constant source of inspiration, conflict, and conversation. It also considers how factors such as fakery, reproduction technology, and sexism influence our judgements about art.
By asking what psychological science has to do with artistic appreciation, The Psychology of Art introduces the reader to new ways of thinking about how we create and consume art.
