In the 1930s it was James Papez who first put forward the hypothesis
that these structures were organized as a system of emotions. The
limbic system was therefore also called "Papez circuit".

In the 1930s it was James Papez who first put forward the hypothesis that these structures were organized

After these pioneering works, there has been intensive research on this system:
the amygdala, a network of nerve cells located anteriorly (i.e. in front) of hippocampus is now considered
to be one of the key structures of the limbic system, which also include the orbitofrontal cortex, parts of
the basal ganglia, and more nuclei of the thalamus than was previously suggested.

Activation of the prefrontal cortex in the human visual aesthetic perception Camilo J. Cela-Conde,*† Gisèle Marty,* Fernando Maestú,‡ Tomás Ortiz,‡ Enric Munar,* Alberto Fernández,‡ Miquel Roca,* Jaume Rosselló,* and Felipe Quesney‡§ Abstract. Visual aesthetic perception (“aesthetics”) or the capacity to visually perceive a particular attribute added to other features of objects, such as form, color, and movement, was fixed during human evolutionary lineage as a trait not shared with any great ape. Although prefrontal brain expansion is mentioned as responsible for the appearance of such human trait, no current knowledge exists on the role of prefrontal areas in the aesthetic perception. The visual brain consists of “several parallel multistage processing systems, each specialized in a given task such as, color or motion” [Bartels, A. & Zeki, S. (1999) Proc. R. Soc. London Ser. B 265, 2327–2332]. Here we report the results of an experiment carried out with magnetoencephalography (MEG) which shows that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is selectively activated in humans during the perception of objects qualified as “beautiful” by the participants. Therefore, aesthetics can be hypothetically considered as an attribute perceived by means of a particular brain processing system, in which the prefrontal cortex seems to play a key role.

memory
The neural processing of aesthetics includes affective mechanisms activating limbic areas,
leading to felt emotions, as well as cognitive mechanisms involved in an objective judgment
of beauty. In this model on brain activation in response to visual art, the primary perceptual
analysis leads through implicit memory and classification to cognitive mastering.

”Parameter estimates show that it is actually change in relative activity in the orbito-frontal
cortex that correlates with the judgment of beauty and ugliness. Much the same pattern,
though in reverse order, is characteristic of the motor cortex.”

Semir Zeki’s group in London has recently documented (2011) that music and visual artworks that by each person are considered to be beautiful (subjective beauty) activates the same area in the brain, the medial orbitofrontal cortex (mOFC).
This has led the researchers to formulate a brain-based theory of beauty: «Almost anything can be considered to be art, but only creations whose experience has, as a correlate, activity in mOFC would fall into the classification of beautiful art».

Vartanian and Goel (2004) investigated rating of paintings as aesthetic preference as viewed in the f-MRI scanner. Their results document rating according to a first-person point of view: i.e. subjective states of experience: The data demonstrate that activation in cortical structures implicated in processing emotion or reward covaried as a function of preference rating; particularly important is the activation of the caudate nucleus and the cingulate sulcus (parts of the limbic system).

On the other hand, a MEG study by Cela-Conde et al.(2004) demonstrates increased activation within
dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC: BA10) when subjects viewed artworks judged as beautiful as
compared to not-beautiful. Jacobsen et al. (2006) were able to demonstrate that the ´hottest` voxels
for the judgment beautiful versus ugly were found in the medial dorsal premotor cortex within BA 10.
The results from Jacobsen et al. and from Cela-Conde et al. (2004) correlate with the role assigned to
the dorsal PFC in processing of information from external stimuli (Cela-Conde et al., 2011, p. 9).

Man kan konkludere med at nevrokognitiv forskning viser
resultater som indikerer at visse objektive faktorer kan ligge i
bunn for vår oppfattelse av hva som er skjønt. For eksempel
kan det gylne snitt være en objektiv faktor for skjønnhet slik
Di Dio et al.(2007) viser; symmetri kan også være en slik
faktor, som Jacobsen et al. dokumenterer.

På den andre siden har Zekis gruppe vist at det er ett område
i hjernen, den mediale orbitofrontal cortex, som blir aktivert
når den enkelte synes noe er skjønt, det være seg bilder
(Kawabata og Zeki 2004) eller musikk (Ishizu og Zeki 2011).

Dette vil, imidlertid, ikke si at Jacobsen et al. og Di Dio et
al., på den ene siden, og på den andre siden Zekis gruppe vil
påstå at objektive egenskaper ved objekter respektive
subjektive reaksjoner hos hver især, kan forklare alt.

Fra og med framveksten av gestaltpsykologien, og dens
forlengelse, slik som Daniel Berlyne sine studier på 1970-
tallet, har man kommet til at vår hjerne ikke er en passiv
mottaker av objektive stimuli; snarere er den en aktiv
komponent i bearbeidelsen av det som persiperes. Det er
dette som kan avleses som processing fluency. Som vi har
sett, innbefatter processing fluency både det perseptuelle
(perceptual fluency) og det konseptuelle (conseptual
fluency), og begge er affektive mekanismer (jfr. Leder et al.
2004, Fig).
