Fresco is the earliest form of expressing feelings and emotions. Fresco, from the ancient lascaux caves fresco in France, ancient Egypt, and ancient Greek, Dunhuang of China, Ajanta fresco of India, Italian Renaissance fresco to those works of modern masters like Matisse, Picasso, Dali, Miro, works of the "Three Masters" from Mexico, street fresco from some Europe and Americas, fresco found at China's airports and Century Mandala of China, stands out in fine arts with its formal creation and everlasting glamour.There are unique features in fresco construction of time-space. Mostly, it embodies some characteristics of freedom and immutability. While generally, easel painting doesn't express time factor and the picture is the concretion of a moment. The space in easel painting indicates the traditional three dimensions: length, width and height. In fresco painting, time may be a combination of the past, the present and the future. It may also be an expression of a continuum of time. The involvement of time rids the painting of the limitations of conventional easel painting and makes it appear to be possessed of more grandeur and immutability. Space in fresco may not only involve the three traditional dimensions, but also combines the seemingly impossible space in reality and the imagined space. Multi-dimensional construction of time and space is the unique trait of fresco.Time-space construction of Fresco may be divided into three classes: realistic, logical construction; super-realistic, non-logical construction; interactional construction of fresco in harmony with the environment. The first, based on the realistic logic, depicts the intrinsic connection between things. It is enabled to possess tractility of time by enumerating, juxtaposing and combining the time and space. It stresses the intrinsic relations and illustrates a continuous time or a large time span in order to express its enormous content. The second indicates the scene that seems totranscend the reality. The picture gives the impression of dream and illusion. The third creates new images of time and space by integrating the picture and the surrounding and it stresses its connection with the surrounding.What is new in this thesis is the point that the multi-dimensional feature is the fundamental feature that differs from the traditional easel painting. Three forms of constructing time-space are illustrated. Different perspectives at different times reflect the widening and deepening of man's spirit and inner heart in the progress of human civilization. The thesis studies the combination harmony of artistic creation and life forces and the mythical relation between life and space-time, hence to learn more about life and art. The fundamental motivation that runs through human artistic creation ii to reveal life forces by means of examining the complicated fresco with a new view on space and time. The lime-space perspective of fresco is the externalized revelation of the internal strain of psychological lime-space.
