Anamorphosis and Contemporaneity
Today, anamorphoses are increasingly used in the field of Graphic & Architectural Design. The construction methods of anamorphoses have not changed since those theorized and used by the first treatise writers in 1600. A comparison between some of the existing procedures, based on the use of new technologies, and the theoretical concepts of the past shows that little or nothing has changed from a conceptual point of view. Those who make anamorphoses these days still follow, for example, the indications taken from Niceron’s studies, even though this task is made easier by the use of computers and video projectors. Some researchers have also developed software programs to facilitate the transformation/anamorphic deformation, although they did so mostly for their personal interest rather than to follow an input given by research bodies. The final objective of the study is to understand the possible further developments of anamorphoses in the field of Graphic & Architectural Design. In other words, the way reverse perspective is used, not only as a subject matter that is taught and explored at a theoretical and academic level, but as a living matter, with which one can have a dialogue to achieve those results that have always fascinated both researchers and the beneficiaries of the works inherited from the past up to our days.
