At the turn of the last century at Cambidge in England. several movements occured against tradition and involved many kinds of fields. like: art. science. politics and economics. It may well be that Bertrand Russell's logical theory and Roger Fry's art theory are some good examples among them. At a glance. the streams of Logic and art criticism seem to keep running separately. acutually there has been a theoretical connection between Russell. and Fry. Both these theories have the analytic method and teir central idea is 'form'. For Russell as well as Fry. 'form' is not a meta· physical idea. but a real object described as such. exactly to say. it is the way the constituentsare put together. Further more this 'form' is different from Clive Bell's idea which usually tends to be considered as equal to Fry's under the Bloomsbury Group.In this essay. I suggest that the originality of Fry's art theory can be derived from an analogy with Russell's Logic. and his formalism must be distinguished from the traditional idealism.
