Book: Part I &amp; Part II (Chapters 1 – 5) of E. H. Gombrich’s “Art and Illusion: A Study in the Psychology of Pictorial Representation” 
Facilitator: Marshall Carolus 
Meeting Date: Saturday, October 10, 10am-12pm 
(Drop-in, <a href="https://book-club-oct-2026.eventbrite.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">set a reminder in Eventbrite</a>)
“Art and Illusion: A Study in the Psychology of Pictorial Representation” is a famous 1960 book by art historian Ernst Gombrich. It explores why art changes over time and how pictures create the illusion of reality. Gombrich uses psychology and science to show that artists do not just copy nature. They use a system of making and matching rules to trick the eye.
We’ll be discussing the first five chapters:
<ul>
<li>PART ONE: THE LIMITS OF LIKENESS</li>
<li>
<ul>
<li>I. From Light into Paint</li>
<li>II. Truth and the Stereotype</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>PART TWO: FUNCTION AND FORM</li>
<li>
<ul>
<li>III. Pygmalion’s Power</li>
<li>IV. Reflections on the Greek Revolution</li>
<li>V. Formula and Experience</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
