Art and Visual Perception, Second Edition: A Psychology of the Creative Eye

Art and Visual Perception, Second Edition: A Psychology of the Creative Eye by Arnheim, Rudolf. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780520243835.

Since its publication fifty years ago, this work has established itself as a classic. It casts the visual process in psychological terms and describes the creative way ones eye organizes visual material according to specific psychological premises. In 1974 this book was revised and expanded, and since then it has continued to burnish Rudolf Arnheims reputation as a groundbreaking theoretician in the fields of art and psychology.
