Emil Nolde/ Hu Yichuan

Emil Nolde was found in the early 20's and he would express him self by woodcutting. the best one yet was the rough work he did by harsh and rough methods but, yet the expression was out and to tell what he though was pretty easy just saying what he could and what he though no need to make comments just woddcutting for him. He was the influential person to other artist around the world like i said yet used his work in society telling the work can describe what to say just like artiost would do with paintings. Also there was Hu Yichuan where he was the first to begin in china and start the woodcutting there was the engraving of the china fighting and tormented by the Japanese invaders. that picture was more about help and trying to say what can we do? the world is like this till this day and paintings can mean more than action just by looking and telling from the woodcuttung from Emil he was mor about him and what he though versus Hu though about more than him his people.

Movies and presentations

     Last week we watched movies and they sure tell us a lot and what i like is going back to , what is reality ? and like the avatar movie was more of what we think and say yet, every movie had a saying and and a meaning on what we think an how others think of the reality around us. I enjoyed avatar because it meant more on how there is two different place and just because on looks different or thinks differently, well that make nothing but, a better place for those people.
      As for the presentations, they were great and had more information with pictures than some of the information i looked up before that i really that some of the work was basic but, easily thought said. I thought only really high artist had potential in art work and drawing with oil paint and pencil i liked the work that was well described.

Class day out !!

Class the was the best last week. we all had to get into groups and find a fascinating portrait and explain to the class everyone had a group and thought what they meant by choosing that specific place. It was fun and even though we didn't get to go on the other adventures for the class this was the best. there where places on campus i haven't been at or that i would never have though about, great ideas. yet, i would have to say the one i thought was the far interesting was the window behind financial aid building it brought out more than just the reflection because, that is what i thought it was but once they added more details to it made more sense to me. There is great art everywhere we just have to look or make it look beyond the imagination on the person that build the building.

Clares Oldenburg Vs. Rene Magritte

the big scale of the two artist expect something to be or for instant, they might say the bird is small and really no one can play with the bird so why not turn it into a actual figure and create the meaning. claes oldenburge created the effect of shift dramaticlly this meaning like the shoe house. there is the world where everyone is living this life while there are home that have been created but, the shoe is so big. as for rene Marritte, the work is showing us how its not how we think since it can be a delusion.
giving the effect one on one and making is look perfect with an edge on the side with in the portaits. many artist do the sculptures different and add more of a twist using peoples bodys the order of beauty.

Annette Messager Vs. Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock have many balance and worlds wide of colors there are the dashes scratching, lashing storks that make waves all makes it seem likes it just scribbles.
The design of his painting had no relation to the shape or size of the canvas the finished work the canvas was sometimes docked or trimmed to suit the image. All these characteristics were important for the new American painting which matured. He took unity and variety to the extreme he was the first of the drip painting that was forever his fame work. As for Annette Messager relies largely on unity in her work there is tons in common with portray isolated body parts. Yet unlike her work Jacksons work is to be looked at and can mean a description right there but for Annette they meaning like tenderness ocher and over again without looking at the portrait. Both of the portraits repeat a pattern of the unity and ask what does it mean the explanation for the picture they ask.

BOMB IT ! (Graffitti)

What is graffiti? It can be an expression, political statement, it can even be freedom to many people yet, the origins of graffiti go back to the beginnings of human, societal living. Graffiti has been found on uncovered, ancient, Egyptian monuments, and graffiti even was preserved on walls. Graffiti is the plural form of the Italian word grafficar.

Graffiti signifies drawings, markings, patterns, scribbles, or messages that are painted, written, or carved on a wall or surface. Graffiti also signifies "to scratch" in reference to different wall writings ranging from "cave paintings", bathroom scribbles, or any message that is scratched on walls. That is my point of view because just anything can be art Graffiti if that person is expressing there self and what they think there drawing means. Mr. Z asked us if we though graffiti was a vandalizim or just art he said in the class room it would be like 90 % that Don't think its vandalizim and the other bit it is which its was surprising. But i think anything is art as long as that person thinks it is. like when we watched "BOMB IT" people who do art well there are bad things coming there way in many places they are already going to jail for a long time and they have to do more, community service,pay the fine,there is more than that for them.
    
Painting means a lot to many people and they have to express them selfs and life even by letting the message out on what is to come to there life of happyness. Graffiti is to share but than later on it became to be money and from there they took the chance to make a living. graffiti in the form of spraycan art is art. It has form, color, and other base properties as well as an arrangement of these elements into structures that qualify. Graffiti might even be like art in a museum.
