Realisation - From Seeing to Understanding : The Origins of Art Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Our world view has changed from a flat earth under the dome of heaven to a planet spinning in the universe.

We perceived the world as a body, like ours, then as a tree, a pyramid, an altar, and finally as a veil which became a window through which we peered only to discover ourselves on a sphere, a bubble which might burst at any moment.

Our changing views are interpreted through iconic images of the remote and more recent past: the Venus of Willendorf, the Pyramids, Stonehenge, the Taj Mahal, the Scream, Sydney Opera House, and the Guggenheim, Bilbao.
