  1. Gestalt principles of Perception Illustration of each one of the 9 selected principles Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  2. Give 2 Examples of each and Perception: • Figure and background/Grouping/Proximity/Similarity/Continuity/Closure/Leveling and Sharpening/Surrounding/Third dimension Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  3. Part 2: Present 3 examples of images of great impact: • From Art, Graphic Design, Advertising, Logos • And describe how each of these uses the principles of visual perception Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  4. Figure and Background Pablo Picasso: Don Quixote- Clear illustration of a dominant figure and background. 1a Pablo Picasso: Toros y Toreros- Clear illustration of a dominant figure and negative space. 1b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  5. Grouping Pablo Picasso: Taureau: This picture shows a clear example of the grouping principle...a very organized one. 2a Pablo Picasso: The Dance of Youth: This shows an example of the grouping principle…a disorganized one. 2b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  6. Proximity Rudolf Arnheim at St. Lawrence: These folks are enjoying a group meeting on the lawn; demonstrating the proximity principle. 3a The Three Stooges are doing the same, in close proximity of one another. 3b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  7. Similarity Archives: Moda-String-Beads: This graphic illustrates the principle of similarity. 4a Retro-birds-triptych shows 3 different groups that demonstrate the principle of similarity. 4b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  8. Continuity Picasso: The Horse: While this is not complexly continuous, it I pretty close at being a good example of the continuity principle. 5a Picasso: Le Flamand Rose: Again, and close example continuity…somewhat more continuous than ‘The Horse. 5b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  9. Closure Picasso: Femme: An example that clearly requires the viewer to use the principle of closure to see what we have here (fill in the blanks). 6a Picasso: The Butterfly: Perhaps not the best example of a drawing that requires the viewer to use the principle of closure, but it seem to be one to this viewer. 6b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  10. Leveling and Sharpening This web page, EXLODE is off center just enough to make me want to shift positions in my chare to center it. This was taken from a graphic website design site (TemplateMonster.com ). 7a Walter Bibikow: Spiral Staircase: This is really off center on the diagonal axis. This is an example of ‘sharpening’. 7b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  11. Surrounding Pablo Picasso: Toros y Toreros- This serves to show an example, too, of Surroundedness. 8a Men-Surroundedness is an example given by a professor of psychology. 8b Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  12. Adding a Dimension Tunbrincon: An example of 3d Max art using a 3d software package. 9a Park Scene created with 3D max. Optical illusion or not, it sure looks real. Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010

  13. Part II: Below are 3 photos of the same area in France, all with the same subject matter. All have 3 different frame of references, all are in black and white. They use complex images as the background, but in all, the subject , the dominate shape (Eiffel Tower) can not be mistaken. None have the subject centered. These are photos, and they do seem to capture another dimension to them. Bonnie Patterson, MAT 103, Spring 2010
