Introduction<\/h3>\n

Whether an artist creates two-dimensional<\/a> or three-dimensional art<\/a>, works in a traditional medium like painting, or makes art using the latest technology, all artists use the same basic visual building blocks of form (elements) and strategies of visual organization (principles) to achieve visual unity. In this section you will learn about the differences between form and content and be introduced to the basic elements and principles of design. You\u2019ll also learn about types of representation in art. All of these concepts are integral to formalism, which is a method of studying artwork by analyzing and describing it in purely in terms of visual effects. Check out this video for a quick introduction to formalism:<\/p>\n

How can it be used to analyze and describe the arrangement of forms and how they contribute to a viewer\u2019s experience and interpretation of the painting? Read on, and you\u2019ll find out.<\/p>\n
