Ways of Looking at Greek Vases

Résumé

This chapter argues that the aesthetic potentialities of Greek painted vases can only be properly understood with reference to their usage. Treating the vases as material objects, the discussion analyzes the various ways in which images on Greek vases can be related to each other, depending on their shape, and how such images can be perceived by the user/viewer. These combinations – which can be narrative or structural, and use effects of homology, complementarity or disruption and surprise – are typical of the visual poetics of the vases used at the symposium, and a source of aesthetic pleasure.
