What are the laws of formal beauty

The laws of formal beauty is the human in the process of creating the form of beauty, beauty of the form of beauty in the process of experience and abstract generalization of the law. Mainly include: symmetry and balance, simple and uniform, harmony and contrast, proportion, rhythm and unity of diversity. Research and exploration of the laws of beauty of form can cultivate people's sensitivity to the beauty of form and guide people to better create beautiful things. Mastery of the laws of beauty of form, can make people more consciously use the laws of beauty of form to express the content of beauty, to achieve a high degree of unity between the form of beauty and the content of beauty.

The aesthetic division, also known as the golden section, was first seen in ancient Greece and ancient Egypt. The golden section is also known as the golden rate, in and out of the ratio, that is, a line segment is divided into unequal lengths of a, b two segments, so that one of the long line segment a on the total length (a + b) ratio, equal to the short line segment b on the long line segment a ratio, the column that is a: (a + b) = b: a, the ratio of its value of 0.6180339 ...... this ratio in the modeling of the more pleasing to the eye, therefore, 0.618 is also known as the golden ratio.

The golden section rectangle itself is composed of a square and a golden section rectangle, which can be divided infinitely between these two basic shapes. Because of its own proportion can produce moderate stimulation of human vision, his length ratio is exactly in line with human visual habits, therefore, make people feel pleasing to the eye. The golden section is widely used in all aspects of architecture, design and painting. ?

In the process of the development of photographic technology, it had borrowed and blended the essence of other art disciplines to varying degrees, and the golden section has thus become the most sacred concept in photographic composition. The simplest way to apply it in aesthetics is to arrange the series of numbers 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 according to the golden section ratio of 0.618 ...... and from this, we can derive the ratio of 2:3, 3:5, 5:8, 8:13, 13:21 and so on, the ratio of these numbers is the approximation of 0.618, and these ratio values are mainly These ratios are mainly applied to: the determination of the aspect ratio of the picture (such as 135 camera negative format 24mmX36mm is derived from the golden ratio), the choice of the location of the horizon, the distribution of light and shadow tones, the division of the picture space and the establishment of the visual center of the picture. Photographic composition is usually used in the three-part method (also known as tic-tac-toe division) is the evolution of the golden ratio, the upper square screen length and width are divided into three equal parts, the whole screen bearing tic-tac-toe division, tic-tac-toe division of the intersection of the screen is the main body of the picture (the center of vision) is the best position, is the most likely to induce people's visual interest in the visual beauty of the point.

Formal beauty is an aesthetic object with relative independence. There is a qualitative difference between it and the form of beauty. The form of beauty is the free sensual form that embodies the essential content of lawfulness and purposefulness, that is, the sensual form that shows the essential power of man. The major difference between the form of beauty and the form of beauty is manifested in the following: first of all, the content they embody is different. The form of beauty is embodied in the beautiful content of the thing itself, which is determined, individual, specific, specific, and the relationship between the form of beauty and its content is a unity of opposites, inseparable. Formal beauty, on the other hand, is not, formal beauty is embodied in the form of the content of the form itself, it and the form of beauty to express the beauty of the thing

content is detached from, and separate form of the form of the hazy, broad meaning. Secondly, the form of beauty and beauty of the form of different ways of existence. The form of beauty is an indispensable part of the organic unity of beauty, is the perceptual appearance of the form of beauty, rather than an independent aesthetic object. Formal beauty is the independent existence of the aesthetic object, with independent aesthetic characteristics.

The composition of formal beauty is generally divided into two major parts: one is the composition of formal beauty of the perceptual material, part of the composition of formal beauty of the perceptual material of the combination of the law, or the composition of the law, the law of formal beauty. The perceptual materials that constitute formal beauty are mainly colors, shapes, lines, sounds and so on. The physical nature of color is light with different wavelengths, and the light perceivable by human visual organs is electromagnetic waves with wavelengths between 390-770 millimeters. Various objects due to the absorption and reflection of electromagnetic waves of light to different degrees, and presents a red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue, purple and other very complex color phenomena. Color has both hue, brightness, purity properties, and color differences. Color on the human physiology, psychology, produce specific stimulus information, with emotional properties, the formation of color beauty. Such as red usually appear warm and unrestrained, lively and enthusiastic, excited and invigorated; blue appears quiet, heavy, worry, sad; green appears calm, smooth, refreshing; white appears pure, white, elegant, sad; yellow appears bright, joyful and so on. Shape and line as the basic elements of the spatial image of the composition of things, also has a very characteristic emotional expressive. Such as straight line has the power, stability, anger, hard meaning; curve has a soft, smooth, light, beautiful meaning; folding line has a soft, sudden, turning meaning; square has a fair, generous, stubborn, strong and so on; triangle has a stable, smooth meaning; inverted triangle has a tilt danger, turbulence, uneasiness and so on; round has a soft, complete, closed and so on. Sound is the sound produced by the movement of the object, its physical properties are vibration. Its high and low, strong and weak, fast and slow and other regular changes, can also show some kind of meaning. Such as treble high pitch, bass heavy and deep, strong sound uplifting and enterprising, light sound soft and friendly, and so on. The color, line, shape, sound in accordance with certain rules of composition combined to form the beauty of color, line, shape, sound and other forms of beauty.

Constituting the formal beauty of the sensibility of the material combination of the law, that is, the law of formal beauty is mainly a flush with the difference, symmetry and balance, proportion and scale, the law of the golden ratio, the main from the focus, transition and response, stability and lightness, rhythm and rhyme, penetration and hierarchy, texture and texture, and contrast, variety and unity, etc. These laws are the human activities to create beauty. These laws are human beings in the creation of beauty in the activities of constantly familiar with and master the characteristics of the various sensual material factors, and the link between the form of factors for abstraction, generalization and summarized.
