Each work incorporated the phil- osophy, psychology, and history of art. Two-dimensional work emphasized color and lineg three-dimensional work stressd the use of volume and lightg four-dimensional work, mobiles, introduced movement and time. The aim of the exhibit was to show the relationships and meanings found in life through art, rather than mere laws, facts, and theories of art elements and techniques.
