The representation of the form of objects and of space in painting,
from paleolithic through contemporary time, has become increasingly
integrated, complex, and abstract. Based on a synthesis of concepts
drawn from the theories of Piaget and Freud, this book demonstrates
that modes of representation in art evolve in a natural
developmental order and are expressions of the predominant mode of
thought in their particular cultural epoch. They reflect important
features of the social order and are expressed in other
intellectual endeavors as well, especially in concepts of science.
A fascinating evaluation of the development of cognitive processes
and the formal properties of art, this work should appeal to
professionals and graduate students in developmental, cognitive,
aesthetic, personality, and clinical psychology; to psychoanalysts
interested in developmental theory; and to anyone interested in
cultural history -- especially the history of art and the history
of science.
