The set design and scenic elements in this play were very well done and well developed. I particularly really liked the light work in this production. The scene on the train was very good because the lights above portrayed the train moving through a tunnel. Also on this scene was wind blowing to simulate the train speeding down the tracks. I also liked the scene when the shadows were made and we only saw the silhouettes of the actors and props.
This is because of his use of tiny brush strokes, which flow in the direction of the world they depict. These are the fundamental elements of his style. Francisco Oller was an impression painter. In the impressionistic style, artists present the impresion of the moment, by using effects of both light and color together. They also, as described, use short brush stokes and brilliant colors to ahieve their image, while the shapes, colors and tones change quickly.
This essay refers to the versatility and the depth of his stylistic variations, a precursor for many aspiring artists of the Renaissance, with reference to his various works, influences from sights and surroundings and pure innate genius. The essay is structured in a way of exploring the use of his different variations and ideas in sequence with the related pieces of his art, signifying the extent of it being an innovation of the style. Donatello’s origins and associations with other great artists of this time are important aspects to appreciate the sculptor in him. He was born in Florence, Italy as Donato di Niccolo di Betto Bardi, the son of a wool comber and remained a bachelor throughout his life. Early in the 15th century, while the painters were still laboring on frescoes and altar pieces for the churches, the sculptors were patronized to fashion works for exterior niches.
31 (Frames 7&8), he tells how a circle, two dots, and a line are perceived as a face and how our mental stigma forces us to always see that combination of strokes as a face. I like the way in which he puts everything into a comic book. By doing that, it makes the article much easier to read and more interesting. I think that if he had just written a traditional article filled with words, he would not have gotten his point across as easily. In addition, I think that if this had not been placed into the comic book format, a lot of people would have disagreed with what he was trying to explain.
James Turrell James Turrell is undoubtedly a great artist, but a discerning scientist as well. He transfers his observations and researches based on studies as a perceptual psychology and a psychology of official perception to a world of art. His favorite material is a light, which is a main subject of majority of his works. Using the light as a source of artistic experiences, James Turrell pays our attention to a meaning of light, about which a modern human does not remember. Formerly the light was identified with gods, was a source of life fully determining a rhythm of day.
I find tattoos in particular largely fascinating and the way Barber paints his portraits of tattooed models instead of the average model makes his portraits that much more intriguing to study. One of Barbers portraits that I find particularly notable is his head study of Artist Jeff Rassier. Barber captures expression magnificently and although his brush strokes are unruly and thick it appears unbelievably lifelike. This is something I wish to enhance in my own portrait work more and work on being able to encompass more expression in to my pieces. Barber also has a passion for painting dolls in eerie surrounding, such as his 18”x18” Oil on canvas ’Headstrong’ which features a dolls head being held menacingly by some human hands.
Throughout the movie, most scenes remain in the same color scheme, dark and earthy colors adds more of an effect on the movie and what type of feelings the movie is trying to create. The director Steven Spielberg wants the audience to know that what this group of men are asked to go through isn’t something to be taken lightly. They face extreme dangers and are very aware of it. Through the lighting the audience gets a sense of what war is actually like. War is basically hell; the entire lighting of the movie gives the audience more of that feeling and does a good job doing it.
by the potter Andokides. It gradually replaced the black-figure technique as people recognized the possibilities that came with drawing forms, rather than carving. The use of a brush in red-figure technique was better suited to the representation of anatomy, garments, and emotions on the jars and pots. In black-figure vase painting, pots and jars were applied with a slip that turned black during firing, while the background was left the color of the clay. The technique of the red-figure vase painting was the opposite.
RUBY MOON In Footprint Theatre’s performance of Ruby Moon they successfully managed to merge both the ordinary real world and the strange and unexpected into the same performance space. This was made possible with the use of light, sound and music, objects and furniture and costumes. Watching the performance of Ruby Moon helped to clarify any questions or uncertainties I had when reading the script beforehand. The use of light helped to set the atmosphere which was appropriate for the scene taking place, however, the lights used usually gave the scene an ominous feeling to match the absurd feeling to the performance. The use of light was particularly effective in the scene with Sid the clown in which he uses a dim lamp to light the room.
Marc Quinn is one of the most interesting and compelling artists working today. He was born in London in 1964, graduated from Cambridge University and started working as a sculptor from 1984. The British artist was part of the group known as Britartists or YBAs (Young British Artists). Quinn is famous for his "discussion-generating" artworks using both innovative materials, like blood, ice or excrement and scientific developments to make art. His work refers to traditional genres of art such as portraiture, landscape and still life however he uses new techniques and methods to represent it for example refrigeration.
