Abstract

This paper aims to identifying mental operations that artists performed when observing the world, for centuries, in four different epistemological modes: representation, abstraction, geometry and appropriation. Against the backdrop of centuries of image production and reacting to the invitation of neuroaesthetics to a re-encounter with the natural world, the article makes an exercise of identifying in rocks and minerals the way in which humanity integrates artistic thinking and the enjoyment of nature, in four keys.
