James “Jumbo” Elliott Villanova University is not only home to the Wildcats, but also home to many remarkable works of art. An example of such a work is Caesar Rufo’s sculpture of James “Jumbo” Elliott. In analyzing this work I will illustrate how this work clearly identifies who James Elliot was and how his legacy at Villanova University is celebrated. In order to accomplish this task, I will examine how exactly the physical characteristics of the sculpture relates to James Elliott’s historical background. Caesar Rufo’s sculpture of James “Jumbo” Elliott is currently located outside the field house of Jake Nevin and the Butler Annex.

It can be clearly seen that rap meets this definition. Many rap songs utilise various poetic techniques and language features to capture and give a voice to an individual’s feelings. One example is the song Read All About It by Professor Green. This is an emotional song that reflects the themes of courage, acceptance and growth. Its poetic devices and language, alongside its subject matter, make Read All About It a worthy piece of literature to include in the Canon.
Angela Bankhead Cinematography: Art & Technique Phil Katzman December 17, 2011 Cinematography in Spike Lee’s “ Do the Right Thing” Lee’s films explore issues of race, poverty, political issues and the role of the media in contemporary black life. He uses these elements to dictate how he visual expresses stories, through the use of cinematography in his work. Lee has worked with the same cinematographer, Ernest Dickerson, throughout most of his career. Dickerson’s exploratory style with the camera, allows him to play with unique camera angles and framing shots in film. His use of versatility through slow panning shots, floating camera effects and color treatment of the film, can be seen throughout his work.
The significance of collaboration in artistic practice can be seen through the community and the people who chose to support their work, people such as contractors, architects and government bodies. Most importantly, collaboration in artistic practice is significant in relation to site specific works such as the Edge of Trees by artists Fiona Foley and Janet Laurence and the House by Rachel Whiteread. During the process of the House by Rachel Whiteread, collaboration played a significant role in the artists practice as if it weren’t for the permission from the local council authorities and in conjunction with the commissioning body Artangel, the House would have never made its grand appearance. In relation with Kershaw’s statement, Whiteread had relied on other people within the community which contributed to ensure the
His works range from small, vibrant watercolours to life-size sculptures in monochrome; however it is the latter which has won him fame, accolades, and the opportunity to represent Australia at the Venice Biennale – and as such it seems only logical to examine one of the works from his series of Jelutong wood sculptures – the most famous of which being Killing Time (2003-04, laminated Jelutong, Maple, 108 x 184 x 118 cm irreg.). The piece is effectively a still life in the style of Dutch masters such as Jan Treck, and early Australian marine paintings. Killing Time appropriates the traditional art form of still life by transferring the image from canvas to wood, and using personally resonating symbols instead of simply carefully placed, aesthetically pleasing objects. Swallow’s version of the still life is a table laden with strategically-placed drapery, fish, shells and fruit skins; and though these objects might seem typical of any sort of still life study, they bear significance for Swallow. He grew up in a small town by the sea in Victoria’s south, and often accompanied his father on fishing voyages.
