Abstract:
We present a framework that connects ideas from the visual arts and visual perception. It adapts two existing frameworks for the analysis of form and content so that it can be used in an educational context for teaching perception through visual arts. The basis is the formal analysis of texture, colour, light, space, and material. This analysis can be conducted both on the medium and the motif, which adds a second level in addition to the formal level. Thirdly, a conte(n/x)t level is discussed which combines a basic notion of semiotics and iconography. We share our experience of implementing pictorial analysis in design and perception education and discuss how the framework is used both in a quantitative and a qualitative fashion. Next to education, the framework provides a basis for further pictorial research.
