What effects can a work of art have on an observer?
How does one interprete a work of art?

On Style:-
"Style is derived from from 'stilus' the writing instrument of the anncient Romans. It refered to distinctive ways of writing- the shape of the letters as well as the choice of words- Nowadays, however a style is used loosely to mean the distinctive way a thing is done in any field of human endeavor. It is simply a term of praise in most cases, to have style means to to have disticntion, to stand out.
To Art Historians the study of styles is of central importance, it not only enables to find out by means of careful analysis and comparison, when and where and (by whom) a given work is produced but it slao leads them to understand the artists's intention as expressed through the style of his work."
History of Art, Janson
On Design:-
"Design is the method of putting form and content together. Design just as Art, has multiple defination. Design can be art. Design can be Aesthetics. Design is so simple, that is why it is so complicated."
Paul Rand
"Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, thats creativity."
Charlse Mingus
"Perfection is achieved not when there in nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
Antoine De saint Eupry
"Form follows function - that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union."
Frank Lloyd Wright
