Question: 1 / 400

Which three types of balance are recognized in art?

Radial

Radial balance, one of the recognized types of balance in art, is characterized by elements that radiate from a central point, creating a harmonious distribution of visual weight around that point. This type of balance can often be seen in designs such as starbursts or circular arrangements where every part is equidistant from the center, contributing to an overall sense of unity and coherence in the composition.

This balance is particularly effective in drawing the viewer's eye toward the center and creating a feeling of energy or movement. It contrasts with the other types, which focus either on having equal weight on either side of a central axis (symmetrical balance) or exploring balance through unequal visual weight (asymmetrical balance). Scale, while important in considering the proportions of elements, does not refer to a type of balance in this context.
