謝謝分享! 有趣的文章(以下閱讀之餘代為摘一下) 摘自Science for the Curious Photographer一書(還在安排出版事宜)
作者是一位對攝影很有興趣的化學教授 這是作者暫時下的定義 Visual art is a human creation that causes pleasure, and by the aesthetic judgment of the human mind it is somehow beautiful or at least stimulating.
隨便摘的一小段(有提到評審的品味) In viewing a work of art, the initial visual scan (bottom-up awareness) may emphasize faces and other salient features to provide a first impression. The immediate impact of the work may result from bright colors or perhaps novel features. In the second stage (top-down awareness), the observer can bring to bear education, experience, and training to evaluate the work in context. At this point discussion with others and additional observation may grossly affect the assessment of the observer, and personal schemata may be modified or strengthened. Art judges, of course, like all of us have sets of schemata in place. In a given period most of the judges may have similar schemata, and that poses a problem for new styles. There is also the schema of the jaded judge who is tired of images of sunrises, sunsets, hot air balloons, blurred water, and so on.
Part II 作者將會提到the question of why images attract or repel observers 及 the practical consideration of how photographers might use their knowledge of visual illusions to make more interesting images.(對01的攝友比較有用)
給有興趣者參考.
另最近也看到或想到一些和攝影有關的問題,可能無解 Why people photograph? Can photography be taught? Are your own pictures enough?/Do photographers need other people's pictures, too/communities? Do photographers need an audience?/Can they make pictures just for themselves?
