Grammar of Art (Language of Art) Presentation By Anuj Kumar MauryaAr. Anuj Kumar Maurya
The language of art can be seen as the visual, auditory, or written vocabulary that artists use to communicate their ideas, emotions, and perspectives through their creative works. This language can take many forms, including:
Visual language: The use of colors, shapes, lines, and textures to create visual art that communicates ideas, emotions, or stories.
Auditory language: The use of sound and music to evoke emotions, create moods, or tell stories through film, theater, and other forms of performance.
Written language: The use of words and language to convey meaning, ideas, and stories through literature, poetry, and other forms of written art.
In addition to these specific forms of language, artists may also use symbolism, metaphor, and other techniques to convey deeper meanings and messages in their work. The language of art is a powerful tool for communication, expression, and creativity, and can be understood and appreciated by people of all cultures and backgrounds.
The elements of art are the basic visual components that artists use to create their works. They include:
Line: The basic building block of all visual art. Lines can be straight or curved, thick or thin, and can be used to create shape, texture, and movement.
Shape: A two-dimensional area that is defined by a boundary, such as a line or color. Shapes can be geometric (circles, squares, triangles) or organic (irregular shapes found in nature).
Form: A three-dimensional object or shape, such as a sculpture or a building. Forms can be created through the use of shape, light, and shadow.
Space: The area between and around objects in a work of art. Space can be positive (the objects themselves) or negative (the area around the objects).
Texture: The surface quality of an object, which can be rough, smooth, or somewhere in between.
Value: The lightness or darkness of a color. Value can be used to create depth, contrast, and mood in a work of art.
Color: The hue, saturation, and brightness of a color. Colors can be warm or cool, complementary or contrasting, and can be used to evoke emotion and mood.
By understanding and manipulating these elements of art, artists can create works that are visually engaging, thought-provoking, and emotionally impactful.

3. What Is Art?
Work of art-visual expression of an idea or experience
formed with skill through use of a medium
• Media/medium-type of tools used to create the
artwork – clay, fiber, stone, wood, paint, video,
photography,• Some communication can only be
expressed through visual form or music...
4. Purposes and Functions of Art
• Art can: – tell us things – elevate our spirits – show
beauty – show injustice
5. How would you define ‘art’?
For many people art is a specific thing; a painting,
sculpture or photograph, a dance, a poem or a play. It is
all of these things, and more. They are mediums of
artistic expression. Webster’s New
Collegiate dictionary defines art as “The conscious use
of skill and creative imagination especially in the
production of aesthetic objects.” Yet art is much more
than a medium, or words on a page. It is the expression
of our experience.
6. Art Appreciation is the knowledge and understanding
of the universal and timeless qualities that identify all
great art. The more you appreciate and understand the
art of different eras, movements, styles and
techniques, the better you can develop, evaluate and
improve your own artwork.
7. Art is uniquely human and tied directly to culture. It
takes the ordinary and makes it extraordinary. As an
expressive medium it allows us to experience sublime
joy, deep sorrow, confusion and clarity. It tests our
strengths, vulnerabilities and resolve. It gives voice to
ideas and feelings, connects us to the past, reflects the
present and anticipates the future.
8. The complexity of the concept of art appreciation is its
overlap with related concepts of aesthetic response, art
history, art criticism, art education, aesthetic
education, and art museum education.
9. Appreciation is also affected by understandings of
concepts of perception, sensibility, interpretation,
taste, preference, and evaluation or judgment.
Appreciation is meshed with beauty and beauty to
aesthetic experience. In aesthetic philosophy as well as
in daily living, concepts of beauty and appreciation are
applied to nature, works of art, and a wide range of
artifacts.
10. Art appreciation is generally assumed and often
explicitly claimed to be the desired outcome of art
education.
11. Visual art is a rich and complex subject whose
definition is in flux as the culture around it changes.
Because of this, how we define art is in essence a
question of agreement. In this respect, we can look
again to the dictionary’s definition for an
understanding of exactly what to look for when we
proclaim something as ‘art’.
12. Stein Olsen's (1988) definitional considerations of
appreciation in the Encyclopedia of Aesthetics can be
condensed to "the act of apprehending a work of art with
enjoyment” (p. 66). Appreciation entails valuing, positive
or negative; it is dependent on acquired perception that
requires initiation and practice, training one's sensibilities,
and learning how to apply apt vocabulary to distinguish
aspects of what is being appreciated. Succinctly,
appreciation requires knowledge. Olsen's definition is
reminiscent of Harry Broudy's (1972) "enlightened
cherishing"--"a love of objects and actions that by certain
norms and standards are worthy of our love. It is a love that
knowledge justifies" (p. 6).
13. Aesthetic (Disinterested) Appreciation Concepts of
appreciation and aesthetic experience have overlapped
since the eighteenth century. One traditionally necessary
condition of experiencing something "aesthetically" is to
view it with an attitude of "disinterest," as developed by
philosophers such as William Shaftesbury, Immanuel Kant,
Arthur Schopenhauer, and in the twentieth century by
Clive Bell, Edward Bullough, Monroe Beardsley, and
Jerome Stolnitz. Shaftesbury typifies disinterested
appreciation as enjoying something for its own sake and
without wanting to possess it. For Kant, disinterestedness
means not caring whether the object of appreciation even
exists.
14. The visual element of Art
A knowledge of the visual elements of art helps you to
understand how artworks are created. It will assist you in
breaking an artwork down to its component parts so that
you may appreciate the skill and imagination that the artist
has used in composing it.
Line
Shape
Tone color
Pattern
Texture
form
15. Line in Art is the
foundation of all
drawing. It is the first
and most versatile of the
visual elements. Line in
an artwork can be used
in many different ways. It
can be used to suggest
shape, pattern, form,
structure, growth, depth,
distance, rhythm,
movement and a range of
emotions.
16. We have a
psychological
response to different
types of lines:
Curved lines suggest
comfort and ease
Horizontal
lines suggest distance
and calm
Vertical lines suggest
height and strength
Jagged lines suggest
turmoil and anxiety
17. The way we draw a line can convey different expressive
qualities:
Freehand lines can express the personal energy and mood
of the artist
Mechanical lines can express a rigid control
Continuous lines can lead the eye in certain directions
Broken lines can express the ephemeral or the
insubstantial
Thick lines can express strength
Thin lines can express delicacy
23. SHAPE IN ART
Shape in Art can be natural or man-made, regular or
irregular, flat (2-dimensional) or solid (3-
dimensional), representational or abstract, geometric
or organic, transparent or opaque, positive or negative,
decorative or symbolic, colored, patterned or textured.
24. The Perspective of Shapes: The angles and curves of
shapes appear to change depending on our viewpoint.
The technique we use to describe this change is
called perspective drawing.
25. The Behaviour of Shapes: Shapes can be used to
control your feelings in the composition of an artwork:
Squares and Rectangles can portray strength and
stability
Circles and Ellipses can represent continuous
movement
Triangles can lead the eye in an upward movement
Inverted Triangles can create a sense of imbalance
and tension
27. Shape can be natural or man-made, regular or irregular,
flat (2-dimensional) or solid (3-dimensional),
representational or abstract, geometric or organic,
transparent or opaque, positive or negative, decorative or
symbolic, colored, patterned or textured.

tension
28. Tone is the lightness or darkness of a color. The tonal
values of an artwork can be adjusted to alter its
expressive character.
Tone can be used:
to create a contrast of light and dark.
to create the illusion of form.
to create a dramatic or tranquil atmosphere.
to create a sense of depth and distance.
to create a rhythm or pattern within a composition.
29. Color is the visual element that has the strongest effect on our
emotions. We use color to create the mood or atmosphere of an
artwork.
There are many different approaches to the use of color:
Color as light
Color as tone
Color as pattern
Color as form
Color as symbol
Color as movement
Color as harmony
Color as contrast
Color as mood
30. Pattern is made by repeating or echoing the elements of an
artwork to communicate a sense of balance, harmony,
contrast, rhythm or movement.
There are two basic types of pattern in art: Natural Pattern
and Man-Made Pattern. Both natural and man-made
patterns can be regular or irregular, organic or geometric,
structural or decorative, positive or negative and repeating
or random.
Natural Pattern: Pattern in art is often based on the
inspiration we get from observing the natural patterns that
occur in nature. We can see these in the shape of a leaf and
the branches of a tree, the structure of a crystal, the spiral
of a shell, the symmetry of a snowflake and the camouflage
and signalling patterns on animals, fish and insects.
Man-Made Pattern: Pattern in art is used for both
structural and decorative purposes. For example, an artist
may plan the basic structure of an artwork by creating a
compositional pattern of lines and shapes. Within that
composition he/she may develop its visual elements to
create a more decorative pattern of color, tone and texture
across the work.
31. Texture is the surface quality of an artwork - the roughness
or smoothness of the material from which it is made.
We experience texture in two ways: optically (through
sight) and physically (through touch).
Optical Texture: An artist may use his/her skillful painting
technique to create the illusion of texture. For example, in
the detail from a traditional Dutch still life above you can
see remarkable verisimilitude (the appearance of being
real) in the painted insects and drops of moisture on the
silky surface of the flower petals.
Physical Texture: An artist may paint with expressive
brushstrokes whose texture conveys the physical and
emotional energy of both the artist and his/her subject.
They may also use the natural texture of their materials to
suggest their own unique qualities such as the grain of
wood, the grittiness of sand, the flaking of rust, the
coarseness of cloth and the smear of paint.
Ephemeral Texture: This is a third category of textures
whose fleeting forms are subject to change like clouds,
smoke, flames, bubbles and liquids.
32. Form is the physical volume of a shape and the space that it
occupies.
Form can be representational or abstract.
Form generally refers to sculpture, 3D design and architecture
but may also relate to the illusion of 3D on a 2D surface.
Three-Dimensional Form can be modelled (added form), carved
(subtracted form) and constructed (built form). It can be created
from sculptural materials like clay, wax, plaster, wood, stone,
concrete, cast and constructed metal, plastics, resins, glass and
mixed media. It may also be kinetic, involving light and
movement generated by natural, mechanical and electronic
means. More recently the CAD process of 3D printing has be
been added to the list of sculptural processes.
Two-Dimensional Form constructs the illusion of 3D in 2D
media by a skilful manipulation of the visual elements.
Perspective drawing, trompe l'oeil [1], 3D computer graphics
programs and holograms are examples of 2D form.
