This document discusses different types of visual rhythm used in artworks, including alternating rhythm, progressive rhythm, and shapes and repetition. It provides examples of artworks that employ these rhythmic techniques, such as works by Andy Warhol, Charles Burchfield, Albert Renger-Patzsch, Bruce Barnbaum, Maurits Cornelis Escher, and Marcel Duchamp. The document serves to illustrate how rhythm can be created and manipulated through the repetition of elements in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional artworks.
