... SHAPE GRAMMARS AND THE GENERATIVE SPECIFICATION OF PAINTING AND SCULPTURE In this paper we present (1) a definition of shape grammars, (2) a formalism, based on these grammars, for the complete, generative specification of a class of paintings or sculptures, and (3) a discussion of the implications of these specifications for aesthetics and design theory. Generative specifications can be used in the analysis and aesthetic evaluation of the paint- ings or sculptures they define. In design based on generative specifications, the artist chooses structural and material relationships and then produces algorithmically the res'ulting works of art, Our underlying aim is to use formal, generative techniques to produce good ... be defined to contain multiple elements. Discussion and illustrations of serial imagery in recent art can be found in (Coplans, 1968). 3.1 Painting Informally, painting consists of the definition of a language of two-dimensional shapes, the selection of a shape in that language for painting, the specification of a schema for painting the areas contained in the shape, and the determination of the location and scale of the shape on a canvas of given size and shape. . ... Level assignments are made to termi- nals during the generation of a shape using these rules: 1) The terminals in the initial shape are assigned level O. 2) If a shape rule is applied~ and the highest level assigned to any part of the terminal correspond- ing to the left side of the rule is N then a) if the rule is of type A~ any part of the terminal enclosed by the marker in the left side of the rule is assigned N. b) if the rule is of type B~ any part of the terminal enclosed by the marker in the left side of the rule is assigned N...
