This study examines the deep affinities between visual art and music, proposing a conceptual and aesthetic framework that bridges both disciplines. Focusing especially on abstract painting, the book reflects on how rhythm, structure, harmony, and expression function across sonic and visual languages. It explores how musical principles can illuminate pictorial composition, while visual forms inspire new approaches to musical imagination. Advocating for collaborative dialogue between art academies and music conservatories, the text calls for a shared creative vocabulary and cross-disciplinary practice. Through theoretical reflection and historical reference to modern artistic experimentation, the book introduces key terms — including the “musical painting” — as conceptual tools for understanding hybrid artistic forms. The study positions this interdisciplinary relationship as a means to enrich creative practice, deepen sensory engagement, and advance cultural knowledge through interconnected artistic systems.
