There are no lines in nature--they are always the creation of
humans, manifestations of human action, perception, and design.
Lines can divide or connect, may be static or full of movement, and
represent and create forms in space and time. And in many cultures,
lines take center stage in science, art, writing, drawing, and
construction. Employing a vast array of academic perspectives, this
fascinating collection delves into the phenomenon of the line, as
well as the power it holds for us. From the history of art and
science to philosophy, the essays in The Power of Line elucidate
the semantic and conceptual depth of the line in European, Asian,
and Islamic cultures. As they trace the continuity and
transformation of the line over the course of centuries, the
authors not only reveal it to be a constitutive element in
architecture, art, and writing, but also uncover its importance as
a medium of expression in both choreography and the scientific and
technological fields. With copious full-color images, The Power of
Line is a captivating exploration of the line as an essential
artistic and cultural means of expression.
