Non-genericity, Visual perception, Improbability, Reception of the pictural workAbstract
The statistical notion of no-genericity, passed on and illustrated
by Jean Petitot, allows to spot, in particular in the representational
pictorial works of art, facts of improbable organization of
the forms. These facts are immediately spotted by the human
vision and establish intrinsic significant entities. These entities
will be, at the level of the later interpretation, invested semioticly,
carriers of meanings not perceptual but conceptual.
