1. The document discusses the concepts of shape and form, describing shapes as either closed or open, regular or irregular, symmetrical or asymmetrical, and positive or negative. 2. It defines a shape as a two-dimensional enclosed area determined by elements like color and texture, while a form is three-dimensional. 3. Examples are given of different types of shapes and forms, including closed versus open shapes, regular versus irregular shapes, and symmetrical versus asymmetrical shapes.

2. 1.- Concept of Shape and Form
2.- Sorts of Shapes:
closed/open; regular/irregular;
SHAPE AND symmetrical/asymmetrical;
FORM positive/ negative.
3. Concept of Form

3. • Everything
around us is
shaped.
Matter can
not exist
without shape
or form. Sonia Delaunay

4. •Definition:
An enclosed
area defined
and
determined by
other art
elements
(colour, texture
s, etc.); 2-
dimensional.

5. FORM AND SHAPE
A triangle, which is two
dimensional, is a shape, but
a pyramid, which is three-
dimensional, is a form.

6. A) Closed
Shape:
Space that is
completely
enclosed by
a line, or
unbroken
contour.
Paul Klee

7. B) Open
Shape:
space that is
not
completely
enclosed by
a line.
Turner

8. •A) Regular:
both sides and
angles equal ;
also the
circumference.
•B) Irregular:
all others.

9. •A) Positive:
shape is
perceived as
part of a space.
•B) Negative:
shape is
perceived as a POSITIVE NEGATIVE
void.

10. •A) Symmetrical: a Symmetrical Asymmetrical
shape that has two
identical halves in
both shape and size
divided by one o
more axes.
•B) Asymmetrical:
the absence of
symmetry.

11. A 3-dimensional object; or something in a
2-dimensional
artwork that appears
to be 3-dimensional.
