| Abstract
|
:
|
'The Objective Eye' explores the fundamental concepts we use constantly in our innocent thoughts and conversations about art, as well as in the most sophisticated art theory. The book progresses from pure philosophy to applied philosophy and ranges from the meta-physics of colour to Renaissance perspective
