Description: Book News Inc. description from Amazon book listing:Architect and painter Greene investigates imagination to see how seemingly unrelated perceptions move people to feel the power of images. He explores how and why people feel this power, and how they come to understand how this power works in them. He examines works of Vermeer, Picasso, Leonardo, Rembrandt, Goya, Dali, and Frank Lloyd Wright, and shows how their cues of imagination and imagery triggered subjective meaning in his own work, including the significance of a shadow hand in a Vermeer and the unconfined agony of an anonymous Frenchman watching the Nazis slam into his nation. Greene then explores how metaphor, events, process, and perception work to capture and release power in imagery. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
