This is an extension from a selected paper from JSAI2019. In this paper, the authors will introduce our experiment to determine the influence of story creation on the abstract artwork appreciation. From previous researches, it was known that novice viewers tend to dislike abstract artworks more than representative artworks, because abstract artworks lack of the forms. The authors tried to relax this trend by making viewers create a story about the artwork while their art appreciation. To answer our research question which is “will individual viewers create similar stories for the same artworks?,” the authors conducted the experiment. The participants answer questions in the worksheet while appreciating abstract artworks and representational artworks. As results, we found out that individual viewers create the similar story to the same artwork from the corresponding analysis and bold lines on the artworks were the important factor to imagine a story. Our result can suggest the possible advantages and disadvantages of using similar activities and how to create effective captions for the artworks.
