碩士 / 臺北市立大學 / 視覺藝術學系碩士在職專班 / 103 / In Art and Visual Perception - A psychology of the Creative Eye, Rudolf Arnheim said “Shape seems to influence weight. The regular shape of simple geometrical figures makes them look heavier. This effect can be observed in abstract painting , notable some of Kandinsky’ s works, in which circles or square provide remarkably strong accents within compositions of less definable shapes. Compactness - that is, the degree to which mass is concentrated around its center also seems to produce weight. Taken from the Graves test, shows a relatively small circle counterweighing a larger rectangle and triangle. Vertically oriented forms seem to be heavier than oblique one. Most of these rules, however; await verification by exact experiment.”
The present researchers aimed to examine such claim and investigate its validity among present day Taiwanese respondents. Literature review, questionnaire and picture analysis were employed in the study.
It was found that Arnheim’s particular observation was not strongly supported by the result of the present investigation.
