Abstract

The author studied the historical cyclical behavior of creativity by employing art and music experts to categorize the stylistic orientation of European and Russian artists such as painters and composers. The results obtained describe the prevalence of left- or right-brain hemispherical features in each studied artist’s work. In accordance with theoretical assumptions, periodic cycles of about 50 years of left- and right-brain creative dominance were observed in various art media. Moreover, cycles in different kinds of art appear to coincide. The data obtained is useful not only for studies of the evolution of art, but also for forecasting future creative cycles.
