'Not an Illustration But the Equivalent'

The book explores the intersection of cognitive psychology and Abstract Expressionism, utilizing contemporary cognitive science models to enhance the understanding of New York School abstraction. It emphasizes how human perception and cognition are influenced by physical experiences and metaphorical projections, proposing a novel interpretive framework that redefines the interpretation of these artistic movements. This approach aims to deepen the comprehension of how viewers engage with abstract art through cognitive processes.
