Description

Explore how humanity makes meaning through non-figurative images with The Iconology of Abstraction. This scholarly work examines abstract images as a visual language used to communicate complex and ineffable concepts. Rather than treating abstraction as a purely artistic phenomenon, this book demonstrates how it functions across various disciplines. Readers will find deep insights into how abstraction operates in fine art, philosophy, and even technical fields. The text covers a broad spectrum of applications, including data visualization technologies, cartography, medicine, and astronomy. It is an essential resource for understanding how we imagine and communicate ideas that defy direct representation. This volume is specifically designed for academic audiences. It serves as a valuable tool for scholars specializing in image studies, visual studies, art history, and philosophy. By looking at both historical contexts and present-day uses, the book provides a comprehensive view of how non-figurative imagery shapes our modern world.
