Visual Art Forms: Traditional to Digital

The visual arts are art forms that create works that are primarily visual in nature, such as ceramics, drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, design, crafts, photography, video, animation and architecture. These definitions should not be taken too strictly as many artistic disciplines (performing arts, conceptual art, textile arts) involve aspects of the visual arts as well as the arts of other types. Also included within the visual arts are the applied arts such as industrial design, graphic design, fashion design, interior design and decorative art. This unique monograph has over 500 images, illustrating various visual art forms using examples from a single author. The book topics include: Painting, Drawing and Sketching, Sculpture, Illustration, Film, Visual Communications, Infographics, CGI and 3-D Imaging, Interaction Design, User Interface Design, Information Architecture.
