Art is a system of human communication arising from symbolic cognition, conveying ideas, experiences, and feelings. The goal of this review is to describe the link between painting and dementia. Individuals with neurodegenerative diseases inevitably experience cognitive dysfunction that has the potential to limit and impair the artist's ability to realize their creative and expressive intentions through painting. The strategy to advance our understanding of the neural bases for art is to map locations and nature of neural damage to changes onto artistic production.
艺术是一种源于符号认知的人类交流系统,用于传达思想、经验和情感。本综述的目的是描述绘画与痴呆症之间的联系。患有神经退行性疾病的个体不可避免地会经历认知功能障碍,这有可能限制和损害艺术家通过绘画实现其创作和表达意图的能力。推进我们对艺术神经基础理解的策略是将神经损伤的位置和性质映射到艺术创作的变化上。
