A Study Of E.H.Gombrich's View Of Images

In the west,sir Gombrich E.H.is known as an encyclopedic classical scholar.He is not only in the field of art history and art,philosophy,art,psychology and other areas of research,But also in the field of image,also has its own unique views.Due to the rapid development and progress of digital image technology,It makes the image art and the modern image study in the contemporary situation unusually vigorous.Gombrich just saw the relation between pictures and texts,and many new problems appeared in the history of art,art,philosophy and aesthetics,Discovered the change of art identity caused by the image turn,and more than once emphasized the central task of iconography,to find the original meaning of the work.Gombrich's theory of image is expanded around art theory.It emphasizes the “co-creation”of viewer and artist.Analyze aesthetic experience between two-dimension and three-dimension image according to the view's vision habit,and fully explain the strong reaction aroused by dummy and substitute with a toy cat and a picture of cat.Gombrich thinks the central task of iconology is to seek the original meaning of the work,analyze the polysemy interpreted by the image,and present “the viewer's duty”.The artist rebuilds the scheme according to schema theory.Gombrich's “rebuild of scheme”and Panovski's“reconstruction of history” are two important theories in iconology.They have the same pursuit to the original meaning of work.The viewer's different comprehension to the work is also a recreation to the work.Gombrich calls this process as mental “projection”.“Situation logic”theory is a pursuit to the work's original meaning around the artist and the viewer.At the same time,emphasize that the viewer's understanding to metaphor can't do without the situation logic behind the text.As the appearance of photography,Gombrich and other art critics,literature critics agree that: camera will lead to the appearance of mass images,and cause the decline of art.People's daily life is surrounded by lots of visual signs,electronic media speeds up the leading role of image transmission.In it,we find Gombrich's strong pursuit to skills in visual work,and response to Plato's imitation theory.He emphasizes the application of techniques in image works,including the applications of light,scenography,composition,experience and so on.From his point of view,the advance of art is established on the basis of painting skill.He criticizes “innocent eye” on the change of artistic identity.No matter what kind of theme the image is,there is a main area for original work.Art is not for the sake of art.Gombrich emphasizes that there is great essential difference between artists who paint real world and artists who imitate image.Seen from the viewer's angel,they are all matching the real world little by little,but analyzing artwork from schema psychological angel,unique creative factor is required.Control technology and image of electronic copy age have come.It will not make it look like an artwork depending on similar visual experience.
