Synopsis
This work is an attempt to bring the latest findings of cognitive psychology to bear on the interpretation of Abstract Expressionism. The heuristic models developed by contemporary cognitive scientists to describe human perception and cognition -- particularly the claim that our physical experience of the world both creates and is filtered by image schemata and that even our interpretive and intellectual constructs originate in metaphorical projections from such physical experiences -- are used to articulate a new interpretive framework to address the interpretation of New York School abstraction.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Light wear. Clean, unmarked pages. 172 pages : illustrations ; 29 cm. This is an oversized or heavy book, which WILL require additional postage for Priority Mail or International delivery outside the US. The author of this well-illustrated study uses the heuristic models developed by contemporary cognitive scientists for describing human perception and cognition to articulate a new interpretive framework and critical terminology to address the interpretation of New York School abstraction. Although art history, as it stands now, offers few methodological avenues to address such issues persuasively, recent cognitive psychology provides the possibility of treading new interpretive ground. This book, therefore, is an attempt to bring the latest findings of cognitive psychology to bear on the interpretation of Abstract Expressionism. Seller Inventory # 2606100043
