In the history of art, formalism refers to the study of art by analyzing the purely visual aspects of an object and how they're made. It compares both form and style and emphasizes elements of composition such as line, texture, shape, color, and other aspects of perception. Formalism is not influenced by the historical/social context or the iconography of the subject.
Answer: Hope this helps!
Explanation:
"Energy is about how the movement happens. Choices about energy include variations in movement flow and the use of force, tension, and weight. An arm gesture might be free flowing or easily stopped, and it may be powerful or gentle, tight or loose, heavy or light. A dancer may step into an arabesque position with a sharp, percussive attack or with light, flowing ease. Energy may change in an instant, and several types of energy may be concurrently in play.
Saying that a dance "has a lot of energy" is misleading. ALL dances use the element of energy, though in some instances it may be slow, supple, indirect energy - not the punchy, high speed energy of a fast tempo dance.
Energy choices may also reveal emotional states. For example, a powerful push might be aggressive or playfully boisterous depending on the intent and situation.
Some types of energy can be easily expressed in words, others spring from the movement itself and are difficult to label with language. Sometimes differences in the use of energy are easy to perceive; other times these differences can be quite subtle and ambiguous. Perhaps more so than the other elements, energy taps into the nonverbal yet deeply communicative realm of dance. "
