Ninth volume of the Wrightsman lectures, which are delivered annually under the auspices of the New York University Institute of Fine Arts.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [307]-323) and index.
This book provides a comprehensive survey of the history and theory of decorative art. The universal human impulse to seek order and rhythm in space and time can be seen in children's play and in poetry, dance, music and architecture, and its prevalence in our every activity calls for an explanation in terms of our biological heritage.
