People have always had an interest in order.Most of us enjoy experiencing patterns that display balance and contrast.Prehistoric people carved the handles of their hunting knives in regular,pleasing patterns.In the 1800's,American cowboys liked to have guns and saddles decorated with patterns.We experience the same delight in form or design when we buy clothes or automobiles for their appearance rather than their warmth or efficiency.Perceiving works of art has long been considered a little like understanding mathematics because both involve patterns or forms.

Art also conveys meanings.Prehistoric people used dances and paintings to communicate the idea of success in planting,harvesting,and hunting.The ancient Greeks gave their ideas about such ideal human qualities as wisdom and courage visual form in their beautiful statues of gods and goddesses.Today,we still give occasions like graduations or weddings importance through music and song.We also try to understand the meaning of important personal events,such as falling in love,and important public events,such as wars,by composing music,writing novels and poetry,painting pictures,or making films about them.
Works of art differ widely in how they combine formal features with meaning.Toward one end of the scale,where the cognitive interest is strongest,are such works as the tragedies of Shakespeare.These works explore fundamental human situations and move us profoundly.They reward us with the discovery of more subtle and complex meaning as we read them or see them performed again and again.Similarly,we enjoy experiencing the religious paintings of the Italian Renaissance,the great novels of Charles Dickens,and Johann Sebastian Bach's Mass in B minor.These works of art do more than convey religious and moral beliefs and attitudes.They convey these meanings through delightful design and pleasurable patterns of perception.
PictureStudents examining a painting by El GrecoToward the other end of the scale is art that evokes strong formal interest but weak cognitive interest.This is true of the paintings of the modern American painter Frank Stella.It is also true of Bach's Preludes and Fugues and Joseph Haydn's chamber music,where the melody and counterpoint emphasize musical form.The formal patterns of classical music,as well as ballet and even the freer forms of modern dance,produce pleasure by satisfying our interest in experiencing orderly shapes and sequences.Most such works are not vehicles for philosophical themes.Yet,even here,some critics give interpretations of highly formal art that show how such works are meaningful.They point out that Stella's paintings contrast with El Greco's to show how curved shapes can define a painting's perceived surface as depicting stillness or motion.The formal patterns of music have qualities like joy,sadness,and vitality,which reflect features found in human life.
人们一直都在考虑自身利益.我们都喜欢体验模式,显示平衡和对比度.史前人刻了用常规的,取悦自己的猎刀处理模式.在1800年代,美国牛仔喜欢有枪,马鞍有图案装饰.我们经历了同样的喜悦形式或设计时,我们买他们的外观,而不是他们的热情和效率的衣服或汽车.感知作品一直被认为有点像的认识,因为都涉及数学模式或形式的艺术.
