Art Project

I have changed what I'm doing my project on and decided to do assemblage as my
research topic. I find it very unique and more interesting

Modern Art Episode 3

From this video I learned that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Beauty can have a different meaning to different people and artists. In the video Matthew Collings does a great job discussing different artists and giving you an inside scope of what beauty means to them. Here is five questions I have from videos:
1. Why would Ofili add something criticizing to the beauty of his artwork?
2. Why was Matisse's main theme beauty?
3. Why does everyone like beauty?
4. Why was Olitski considered one of the greatest living painters?
5. Why was he obsessed with painting landscapes?

Art Project

For my art project I would like to do something about Ana Mendieta. Specifically
Imagen de Yagul, from the series Silueta Works in Mexico 1973-1977. Why was she obsessed with creating female silhouettes and why was she so often focused on a spiritual and physical connection with the Earth?

Art Project

I'm still deciding on the artist for the art project , but mostly inclined towards researching more on calligraphy and its use as architectural art. I still need to find an artist I can really research.

I would like to present more history and cultural significance of such art .

"Art Project"

For my project I would like to focus on the artist Ana Mendieta. As well as examine her specific works such as "Imagen de Yugal", "Silueta Works in Mexico", & "Untitled, 1973".

"Abstract Movement"

I would like my project to be about the abstract movement. I would like to explore this subject a little more. I was thinking I could talk about the artists that started this movement, why did they started it? Is it common today? Who is an abstract artist today?

Picasso

Why did picasso paint woman.?

Project

I'm choosing to to my project over Jasper Johns.

HOMEWORK Due wed 11/2 -Frida Kahlo

Oftentimes art can be use to stir, anger, and cause viarious forms of controversy.  Such is in the case of an artist named Frida Kahlo.  From speaking about her various emotions such as in Sin Esperanza, and The Wounded.  She uses a variety of of color elements such as color theory (using color to express emotions), as well as graphic elements of her life using many times, real-life look alike Illustrations or paintings. Using paintings such as My Birth, Self Portrait With Loose Hair, she conveys her painful life.  She created various painting to bring to the world the societal issues, such as in The Airplane and Portrait of a Girl.

The Reflection Of Frida Kahlo-Art Project

Frida Kahlo oftentimes uses are to mirror things which happens in her own personal life. Paintings supporting this include:Sin Esperanza, My Birth, The Wounded,Self Portrait with Loose Hair.

I really do not know which topic I will pick, but I might like to pick up Greek art. I will pick this topic because I like the sculptures that are in Greece.

Project's Objective

Through the time we studied about Art and artists, I have been impressive by Theo Jansen kinetic project. His "engine" art is very interesting. By using the force of the wind, Jansen let people see his art as a new future of human power regeneration. I will go more details on my project :)
