In Episode 91 of Art Talk, I discuss wat art evokes in our brain. Based on Neurological research in the Mauritshuis in the Netherlands, art electrifies the Brain. This of course is goed news for artists who paint.
Looking at real art stimulates the brain on multiple levels. It sparks excitement, ignites the imagination, and compels deep thought. The emotional response to authentic paintings was ten times stronger than to their reproductions. Let that sink in. What art evokes in our brains is ten times stronger.
