But because it’s a portrait, I feel as though Frida and Diego are both subjects. 2. Is there any physical quality in the painting that has been distorted or exaggerated? If so, what is the artist trying to
Abstract Art- Meaningful: Final Draft I believe abstract art is meaningful. Some people don't think it is meaningful but for me I think it is. Abstract art is just likes sunlight and water, you can see and catch it; abstract art is just like air, you can't see and catch it, but you can feel it. Abstract is not like the realistic art, it's not a representation of an object, and the audiences can't really tell the exactly correct meaning behind it. Sometimes it is true that abstract art is hard to understand and hard to make a subject of conversation.
The shuttlecocks were created in the shape of an obvious triangle. The artists did not use any values when painting these sculptures. Since these are three-dimensional sculptures, the need to create three-dimensionality using values doesn’t exist. Natural light does create excellent shadows within the individual sculptures. Each sculpture has incorporated an individual sense of movement.
Cubism was more three dimensional relating to the cube or circle. Cubist artists resisted the traditional techniques of modeling, foreshortening and perspective in their art work. They fractured or reduced objects into geometric forms and realigned them with a relief like, shallow space. They also used contrasting or multiple vantage points insuring a different perspective each time one viewed the various art works (Metropolitan Museum of
Artists were free from the use of perspective and accuracy. Tonal range and lighting was no longer heavily relied on but the representation of natural and fake textures made a lot of cubist art works appear tactile even though the surface of the canvas remained flat. Unlike the abstract artists of
Not all art labeled as contemporary art is postmodern, and the broader term encompasses both artists who continue to work in modernist and late modernist traditions, as well as artists who reject postmodernism for other reasons. Arthur Danto argues that "contemporary" is the broader term, and that postmodern objects represent a "subsector" of the contemporary movement. Some postmodern artists have made a more distinctive break from the ideas of modern art and there is no consensus as to what is "late-modern" and what is "post-modern." Ideas rejected by the modern aesthetic have been re-established. In painting, postmodernism reintroduced representation.
Instead, they placed more emphasis on the “structure, content, and formal order” ("Impressionism & post-impressionism,"). They liked to use unnatural colors and use geometric shapes, unlike the Impressionist’s use of soft lines and natural colors. Also, instead of painting outdoors to capture the moment, Post-Impressionist painted in a studio, and their paintings were based on the emotion and concept of the artist (Emelda, 2011). Like the Impressionists, however, they believed the originality of the painting was important. Like many artists of the 1880’s, the Post-Impressionist wanted to portray “emotion and intellect as well as the visual imagery” ("Post impressionist,").
You would be left with little more than fundamental theory and intention, but with nothing tangible to show for it. Art is, in essence, simply a number of optical constituents combined with mental elements such as meaning, and message. When surveying Diebenkorn’s “Ocean Park” (of the exact number in the series I am unsure), the first things I noticed was shape, and color. Though the painting overall did not take any recognizable form, I observed that it was broken down into rudimentary geometric shapes, namely rectangles. As with such shapes, there was a general lack of roundness in the painting which I found interesting, as such regular shapes paired with the intensity of the irregular colors perfectly juxtaposed one another, creating a uniform widespread focal point throughout the entire painting.
What is the definition of ‘fine art’ and how, if at all, does photography qualify as fine art? Fine art is art that is produced or intended primarily for beauty, versus being used as a utility. Photography does qualify as fine art. Photography for some is created purely for the artistic side of it. In the following, DO NOT use photos available in your text.
I argue that having the ability to be controversial is what makes art, art. In truth, "the freedom of expression" is a lie because while we all possess it, we don't speak our mind in fear of being ridiculed or having our opinions written off. Art is the only medium, where one's thoughts, no matter how controversial, can be presented in anyway they want, there shouldn't be a "taking it too far" with art. Everything is appropriate in art. Writers Week is a event that allows people to say things they would not normally say in a school environment, or share thoughts they wouldn't share with people, whether it be the f-bombs 'Mutts' dropped or the swears that student presenters uttered while reading their speeches,their art brought some crudeness into our sugar coated school environment.
