The Dynamics of Architectural Form

Rudolf Arnheim has been known, since the publication of his groundbreaking
Art and Visual Perception in 1974, as an authority on the psychological
interpretation of the visual arts. Two anniversary volumes
celebrate the landmark anniversaries of his works in 2009. In The
Power of the Center, Arnheim uses a wealth of examples to consider the
factors that determine the overall organization of visual form in works
of painting, sculpture, and architecture. The Dynamics of Architectural
Form explores the unexpected perceptual consequences of architecture
with Arnheim's customary clarity and precision.
