Any change made by an artist in the size, position, or general
character of forms based on visual perception, when those forms are organized into a pictorial image.
In art, distortion is often used as an expressive technique.

To change the way something looks - sometimes deforming or
stretching an object or figure out of its normal shape to exaggerate
its features - making it more interesting or meaningful.

BRIEF HISTORY
![Page 6: Distortion](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062418/55648fbfd8b42a5f6c8b4d05/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Distortion is part of the Baroque Art.
This is during the Mannerism Period.
One of the most famous artist in distortion was KAZUYA AKIMOTO

His famous artworks are “ The Best Contortionist Ever” and “ Woman with Two Mouths , Lying on the Couch”
This way of representing art is one way of showing or expressing ridicule or anger towards a certain subject based on the tradition of the people.

Distortion can be of two kinds: formal or emotional.
Distortion presupposes a norm or order from which to depart and in representation it must have a recognizable reference to the norm which is distorted for example a distorted circle.

A nonrepresentational or nonfigurative shape cannot be distorted because it does not depart from a recognizable norm: distortion can be used intentionally or unintentionally.
It was used intentionally for expressive and emotional ends in the 20th century. Not only figures, but objects and space can be distorted.

FRANCIS BACON

British painter whose powerful, predominantly figural images
express isolation, brutality, and terror. Self-taught as an artist, he drifted in Berlin and Paris before settling in London in 1928, after which he worked as an interior
decorator.

His later portraits and figure paintings are executed in
lighter colours and treat the human face and body in a style
of extreme distortion and contortion.

Many of Bacon's early paintings are based on images by other artists, which he
distorts for his own expressive purposes. Examples of such themes are
the screaming nanny from Sergey Eisenstein's film Potemkin and studies of the human figure in motion by the 19th-
century photographer Eadweard Muybridge.

Robert Doisneau photographed the private, working-class Paris and marked the 20th Century with his
fascinating, moving black and white photos. Nostalgic, tender
and relevant, his work invites us to take a different look at scenes of
daily life.
