Perspective as Symbolic Form

Book Description

Erwin Panofsky's Perspective as Symbolic Form is one of the great works of modern intellectual history, the legendary text that has dominated all art historical and philosophical discussions on the topic of perspective in this century. Finally available in English, it is an unrivaled example of Panofsky's early method that placed him within broader developments in theories of knowledge and cultural change. Here, drawing on a massive body of learning that ranges over Antique philosophy, theology, science, and optics as well as the history of art, Panofsky produces a type of "archaeology" of Western representation that far surpasses the usual scope of art historical studies.

Perspective in Panofsky's hands becomes a central component of a Western "will to form," the expression of a schema linking the social, cognitive, psychological, and especially technical practices of a given culture into harmonious and integrated wholes. Yet the perceptual schema of each historical culture or epoch is different, and each gives rise to a different but equally full vision of the world. Panofsky articulates these different spatial systems, demonstrating their particular coherence and compatibility with the modes of knowledge, belief, and exchange that characterized the cultures in which they arose. Our own modernity, Panofsky shows, is characterized by its peculiarly mathematical expression of the concept of the infinite, within a space that is necessarily both continuous and homogeneous.

Interesting book and short.......2003-05-27

Panofsky's book on perspective, Perspective as Symbolic Form, is a short book about the development of perspective from ancient perspective to the full, abstract space of an Alberti. This is interesting for a number of reasons, which are:

a) ancient perspective is the perspective of angles, not of distances. This is hard to explain without a diagram, but basically an object at a 45 degree angle is 3/4 as large as an object at a 60 degree angle. This is in contrast to modern perspective, where size is in inverse proportion to distance, not angle. The idea that the ancients did not have perspective is simply false. Modern perspective as a third antiquity.

b) the grid of perspective preceded the abstract space of the cartesian grid. The equivalence of extension and object or mass is already present in kpainting before it was ever devised by Descartes.

c) the "vanishing point" is the "actual infinite," the infinite in this world. A theological point.

d) modern perspective is actually a falsification of the "psychophysical" perception of the world, which is really curved. We live in a curved world. Comets tails, for instance, look curved even though they are straight. Buildings look curved likewise. See Vitruvius for the ancient discussion of this phenomenon.

great piece of work.........2000-09-27

One of the most interesting problems we had in our drawing class was regarding linear perspective and I picked up this book hoping that it would go in detail about perspective in historical and cultural context and it did!

This book is written by and for educated man. The translation is great and I finished the book in one reading because it was so compelling. It is above and beyond the mere mechanics of horizon lines and vanishing points.

The end notes are great too.

A must read for all art lovers.

Visual and mathematical perspective until the renaissance........1999-03-24

A great book at turning point for watercolorists........2001-08-20

If you are pursuing watercolor painting, have achieved a reasonably good drawing skill, and are ready to take on some significant watercolor projects, this book is right for you. The book consists of three main sections. After a brief coverage of color, papers, and equipment, the book presents tutorials on painting water, landscape, trees, figures, portraiture, and landscapes, after some masters of these subject matters, including Cotman, Constable, Monet, to name a few. These step-by-step tutorials are discussed in detail and easy to follow, along with emphasis on key techniques. Finally, the last section of the book demonstrates important techniques in watercolor to achieve desired effects.

Excellent for the paralysed beginner.......2005-04-24

I have been circling around watercolour painting for some time now and had gone so far as to buy some paints, brushes and paper, but was at a complete loss as to how to actually start.
I bought this book sight unseen on the basis of reviews, and I think it is the best possible book I could have bought. (I have several other 'beginners' watercolour books which have left me more, rather than less, inhibited about starting.)
This book concentrates on teaching specific watercolour techniques in a step-by-step manner, with very precise and detailed instructions on how to load your brush, how to use it, how to mix each colour, and how to do specific techniques such as laying a wash (best description I've read, by a country mile, and it worked - a perfect wash second time), softening edges, lifting out colour, adjusting your work if it isn't right first time, and so on. She takes the guesswork out by providing a series of interesting drawings to copy and step by step instructions on how to paint each, and by specifying exact paints and (cheap but good) brushes, which I bought. The exercises are graded - before I started each one I was sure I would make a total mess, but each time the results were very good (would have been excellent if I'd had the patience to do a quick trial of each technique on a scrap piece of paper before going for it).
This is not a fast-and-free approach, but an interesting and fun book which teaches you the basic techniques you will need even if the fast approach suits your personality better. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Disappointing.......2003-06-19

Not for the beginner. Choices of projects weak.

..........2002-02-11

--------------
As a young chap, I visited my local Art Gallery here in Bolton (UK) and although I had virtually no interest in art, I found myself mesmerised by the watercolour paintings of Thomas and Paul Sandby (c1700's). Twenty five years later and I still haven't taken a brush to paper - well, not until recently.

Browsing through a bookshop a short while ago, I thumbed through scores of watercolour books and made mental note of how simple the paintings seemed to be. Can't be that difficult can it?

And then....I picked up Dawn's book and was simply amazed by the fine paintings contained therein. Wow! The "Strawberries & Lace" knocked me sideways! I figured that even if I couldn't follow the lessons, my money wouldn't be wasted, because I'd cut out these fine pictures and frame them! :-)

Seriously though, I'd agree with one of the other reviewers and say that this book is perhaps not the ideal beginner's choice. Having said that, this book does serve to inspire you and that's worth more than any amount of "basics".

Don't hesitate....buy it now!

Takes a Mid-Level Beginner to High-Intermediate Stage.......2001-11-23

This was one of the first watercolor books I ever bought when I first wanted to learn how to paint. First of all I'd like to list some of it's stronger points.

1. The projects are beautiful with the subjects being mostly still-life (although there is one animal project of baby ducklings
2. The author lists exactly the colors and brands she used in each project, the specific mixes of each colors and step-by-step directions for you to follow at each stage. Each project has stage-by-stage photos so you can see what your painting-in-progress should look like at the end of each stage.
3. The "Critique Your Work" tip section. She lists some questions to ask yourself as you examine the finished painting to see what you did well and what can be improved.
4. The "how moist is moist?" examination of loading a brush with color. This is one technique most other watercolor books either don't mention at all or if they do they don't explain it. The author gives photos and a detailed description of exactly what she means by a phrase such as "loaded brush", "moistened brush" etc.
5. The section on values and painting a controlled wash. There is a page devoted to common problems that beginners can run into when trying to paint washes - complete with examples of some of these problems (streaky wash, backruns, etc.) and how to correct them or avoid them.

It helps to buy the paints she recommends because it will eliminate one variarable that might make it harder to lead to a satisfying result. It is possible to use other brands (I did) but I recommend at least try to use the same pigment, if possible, as she lists in the book. For some people who are on a limited budget or don't want to invest in a lot of paint to be used only for this book's projects they might consider this a drawback. Also, this book doesn't cover painting portraits, wildlife, landscapes, seascapes, etc. It will be of most interest to fans of still-life subjects. Overall, I'm glad I own it as it is a big help to further development of techniques with watercolor.

Beautiful book but not for a beginner.......2001-11-15

The first time I picked up this book, I am very much inspired by the projects. Very clearly written step by step, even with the drawing provided and color chart clearly explained. They are as easy as coloring book, or so I thought.

There are few things that are big turn-offs. First of all, the equipment. The paint has to be of specific color (and/or maker) and for each project it requires more than 5 different color of paints. Other equipments are also specific such as brush sizes. They can be very costly, especially for a beginner like me who doesn't want to spend a lot of money for something that I will most probably failed on first try.

Second, the techniques, such as mixing colors to achieve a shade or a value, controlled wash, although very clearly written, does not give any indication that it is very hard to achieve in real situation, especially for beginner. It takes me a long while to mix a paint and achieve the described value and by the time I finish mixing all of them, I have no appetite to paint anymore. I also practiced to do controlled wash as described many many times and still I cannot achieve the same quality as desired in the book, not even near. A smear here, a balooning effect there, if you can't master it, the finished project are not too forgiving either. In short, it is very easy for a beginner like me to be frustrated and discouraged, especially after that much money spend for buying the equipments.

Maybe it's me. Maybe I will pick up this book again in the future. But for now, I'd like to see a book that teaches me how to paint intuitively, allowing me plenty of room for error, and use less equipments.

Watercolor techniques for floral subjects.......2007-09-29

If you like painting floral subjects, Janet Whittle's method may be of interest to you.

Starting with masked subject areas and dropping in pure colors, Whittle creates a lively, mottled background and then goes on to paint negative spaces around leaves and background flowers. This gives the effect of distant leaves and petals in shadow. Then the main flowers are painted in, dropping colors into the center, shadowing petals and adding detail to stamens, pistils and other structures.

The good thing about this technique is it makes effective bouquet subjects. The bad thing is that the technique leads to somewhat of a sameness to every painting. In this book, the author adds vases, pots and other subjects to the still life, which helps. If you have this book, you probably don't need any of the others as this one is more comprehensive. I don't feel inspired to copy this technique, but there are worthwhile tips to absorb in handling iris especially.

Book Description

Based on a decade-long study, this timely text uses a wide range of economic models to explore the global, national, and local effects of military disarmament. The authors review the international literature of disarmament and conversion induced by the end of the Cold War and compare the results to the findings on Norway. Claims about the improvement of welfare, development, and the environment--which are to be funded by peace dividends--are examined, in addition to the warnings that militarized economies will collapse as a result of disarmament. "The Wages of Peace is a slim book that many readers should find stimulating and useful. It is broad in scope, reviewing much international literature, yet it stays highly focused on Norway. . . . There are also ample tables and figures, although the mathematics stays in the background in the form of a brief nine-page appendix. A good work, many readers will find The Wages of Peace though provoking and satisfying." --Mershon International Studies Review

Book Description

We live in a world of brands. Brands play a crucial role in business competition, but have also become an important social phenomenon. Brands are represented by signs and symbols, gestures and images. They stand for values, hopes, and desires, for experiences and expectations. They evoke emotions and associations. Branding From A to Z is a purely visual crash course in the essence and impact of brands, alphabetically pairing symbols with images, so that the "C" of Campbell's Soup is paired with a photograph of Che Guevara; the "D" of Disney with a whimsical portrait of Salvador Dal'; the sign for the Euro with Albert Einstein's mug; McDonald's Golden Arches with Marilyn Monroe, skirt aflutter over a gusting grate; the royal blue "Q" of Q-Tips with the even more royal Queen Elizabeth II; and all the way to the swishy "Z" of Zurich Insurance, paired with Frank Zappa, who sits quizzically upon a toilet.

Book Description

¿Qué es un teleteatro? ¿Cómo es posible que este relato candoroso de humildes mucamas y niños ricos trascienda el tiempo, las modas y los sistemas políticos? ¿Por qué lugares tan ajenos al temperamento latino como Alemania, Egipto y Japón se entusiasman con estas historias? El teleteatro trascendió la amable hora de la siesta para ocupar el horario central de la televisión, y surge de la vena más profunda del ser femenino: un enigma histórico que ni Sigmund Freud pudo desentrañar. ¿Qué quieren las mujeres? ¿Por qué hay tan poco sexo en los teleteatros? ¿Es que a la mujer no le gusta?

Lejos del análisis semiótico y la mirada estructuralista, Cecilia Absatz propone en este libro fascinante y provocador una teoría polémica que analiza la estructura básica del teleteatro hasta encontrar en la trama la clave secreta de los deseos de las mujeres.
