  1. Art Elements S P AC E

  2. Space Vocabulary

  3. Definition The element of art that refers to the emptiness or area between, around, above, below, or within objects.

  4. 2 Types of Space Shapes and forms are defined by space around and within them. There are two types of space: Positive Negative

  5. 2 Types of Space Positive Space The shapes themselves are called “positive” shapes or “positive” space. “positive” shapes “positive” space “positive” shapes

  6. 2 Types of Space Negative Space “negative” space The spaces around the subject are called “negative” shapes or “negative” space. “negative”shapes “negative” space “negative” space

  7. 2 Types of Space Negative Space A lot of times negative spaces are depicted as empty, white or black areas…

  8. 2 Types of Space Negative Space …in the real world, however, things get much more interesting…

  9. 2 Types of Space Negative Space …negative spaces won’t look blank unless your subject is positioned against a white surface…

  10. 2 Types of Space Negative Space …in fact, a negative space may actually be filled with lots of detail, perhaps even includingsmaller negative spaces.

  11. 2 Types of Space Example: if you spread your hand on a tabletop, the areas between your fingers are negative spaces your hand and fingers themselves are positive shapes If you put your hand on your hip, you’ll create a triangular negative shape between your body and your arm.

  12. Illusion of Space The feeling of space in a drawing or painting is always an illusion. 

  13. Illusion of Space Artists use various techniques to achieve illusion in their art. Let’s see how each is used to create the illusion of space in flat, two-dimensional objects like paintings or drawing...

  14. Illusion of Space …combining the use of light and dark value…

  15. In simple overlapping a figure partially hides an object that’s supposed to be behind it. Since our eyes are easily fooled, we willingly agree that one is closer, the other is further away. Illusion of Space …simple overlapping…

  16. figures at the top of the page seem to be further away, and are sometimes smaller in scale than things that are closer to enhance the illusion. Illusion of Space …ladder perspective…

  17. Illusion of Space is a geometric, mathematical method using receding lines that move toward a vanishing point.  …linear perspective…

  18. Illusion of Space …linear perspective…

  19. Illusion of Space …linear perspective…

  20. Illusion of Space …atmospheric perspective… atmospheric perspective whereby objects in the distance seem bluish-gray, dimmer and blurred, or varying warm and cool colors which seem to recede or advance.

  21. Illusion of Space …atmospheric perspective…

  22. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture Space actually and easily exists in sculpture, because sculpture is three-dimensional. Henry Moore, Reclining Figure,1951, Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge Frederic Remington, The Bronco Buster, limited edition #17 of 20, 1909

  23. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture Remember that paintings and drawings are two-dimensional. They have length and width.  They are flat. The painter of the old harbor – Honfleur (France)

  24. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture Sculpture has length, width, and depth, the third dimension. They are 3-D forms.

  25. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture There are two types of sculpture:  Relief Sculpture and Free-Standing or Sculpture in the Round

  26. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture …relief sculpture… Figures emerge from a backing surface.  Reliefs are often carved from a single block of material like marble, clay or wood. How far the figures emerge from the backing surface is described as high relief, middle relief low relief sunk relief  high relief low relief middle relief sunk relief

  27. Illusion of Space in 3-D Sculpture …free standing sculpturealso know asfree standing sculpture… Sculpture is not attached to a backing surface, and viewers can walk entirely around the object, viewing it from many different angles.  If you could walk behind a relief sculpture, you’d only see a blank surface.

  28. Mind Map of Elements Add Space and descriptive words, phrases and examples to your Mind Map of Elements.

  29. Pass Out Ticket Tell me about the space you see in this painting.
