What can art tell us about how the brain works? And what can the
brain tell us about how we perceive and create art? Humans have
created visual art throughout history and its significance has been
an endless source of fascination and debate. Visual art is a
product of the human brain, but is art so complex and sophisticated
that brain function and evolution are not relevant to our
understanding? This book explores the links between visual art and
the brain by examining a broad range of issues including: the
impact of eye and brain disorders on artistic output; the relevance
of Darwinian principles to aesthetics; and the constraints imposed
by brain processes on the perception of space, motion and colour in
art. Arguments and theories are presented in an accessible manner
and general principles are illustrated with specific art examples,
helping students to apply their knowledge to new artworks.
