An experienced and prolific writer, Robert Solso has a gift
for simplifying sometimes difficult concepts in science. Here
he brings a refreshing new approach to the psychology of art,
synthesizing research from a vast collection of data on how
humans perceive, process, and store information and applying
it to the viewing and interpretation of art.
In this first systematic study of the connection between
the new cognitive psychology and its importance to art, Solso
reflects on the long relationship between humankind and art,
observing that mind and art are one. A major theme of this
book, in fact, is that the clearest view of the mind comes
when we create or experience art, a reverse of the usual view
of art and cognition.
The illustrations cover a wide range of examples, including
African, Asian, and prehistoric art, but focusing primarily
on Western art. The treatment of cognition applies a blend of
the standard information-processing model, brain function,
and neural networks.
