Language of Vision
Book description
Kepes, Gyorgy
Why read it?
1 author picked Language of Vision as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Where Arnheim provides a psychological foundation for art as experience, Kepes deconstructs the visual field graphically and shows us how all of its elements operate.
This is another book that doesn’t get enough attention anymore. Kepes shows many diagrams as examples but also shows work produced by artists and graphic designers and discusses how the visual field is operating in each case.
My two copies of this book are so littered with underlines and marginalia that I may have to buy a third!
From Frank's list on design sensing.
