Looking at basic formal analysis of art work we can compare and contrast the formal elements. Such things as form, subject matter content brings art to life. Line, color and texture give us a mix of styles from abstract to representational, canvas to clay. Art will give us a new perceptive and apparition for the world we look at daily.…
The Introduction to the World of Art What does that exactly mean? A piece of art usually has two components. The two components consist of form and content. Both components identify the ideal aspects of a particular image. While studying Egypt I was asked to visit the Brooklyn Museum of Art. After exploring the Egyptian Gallery I was able to identify the many different components to a particular exhibit. These components include size, measurement, design, text, and different tools, which were used to make this particular piece. In my exploration I Was able to identify why this sculpture was made, how it was used and now a representational of many different cultures groups and or races.…
The course syllabus had all the learning objectives bolded with oversized fonts like it did not show its emphasis. I felt like an oversized bird in a small cage. I wanted to fly out of that class because we were learning how to draw basic circles. I remember that course syllabus and nothing on that paper mentioned and key phrases like growth or creativity. The overexaggerated paper mentioned simplistic tasks that I could individually learn at home. I looked right in front of me and saw a magnificent painting by the famous painter named Vincent van Gogh. The painting was called the starry night. The painting sparked creativity in me, by making me overlap the existing circles on my paper and made me create new meaning to my paper. The picture helped me visualize the importance of creativity and it helped me create a new learning experience. The philosopher of education named John Dewey mentioned in his book, “A lifetime would be too short to reproduce in words a single emotion. In reality; however, poet and novelist have an immense advantage over even an expert psychologist in dealing with emotion. For the former build up a concrete situation and permit it to evoke emotional response. Instead of a description of an emotion in intellectual and symbolic terms, the artist ‘does the deed that breeds’ the emotion.” (Dewey, John(N/A) Reconsidering John Dewey’s art as experience. Art Is a Powerful, Imperfect Form and the Experience of it Has the Potential to Be Transformative: Alexis Clements) This quote is a vivid representation that art can be manipulative and can be a factor that helps is grow our own self-worth through fostering our…
Creativity is achieved through unusual mental and physical action. In addition, some actions are more likely to be considered art, for example painting a portrait with a brush is mostly understood as a product of art, whilst painting walls is only a form of labor. Therefore, creativity can also be limited through language, because this differentiation is always present in a creator's…
Focusing on the creative process make me feels peaceful and helps translate my feeling in art. Creating art is an aesthetic activity; it brings me great excitement and enjoyment. It is the best way of expressing my inner world, feelings, and emotions.…
The reading has done a good job analyzing art with different content. The author believes that every piece of art can be dissected and analyzed from many different perspectives. For example, content that arises from the aspect of the artwork that is understood as representational recognizes elements based on resemblance. Content arising from verbal supplements supplied by the artist uses verbal supplements to help interpret artwork. Content arising from the genre or medium of the artwork adds different medium to artwork to create a three-dimensional experience. Also, a piece of art that depicts contradiction…

Art has been around for thousands of years. In fact, different types of craft can be traced back to prehistoric times when Neanderthal men started painting on the walls of the cave. Throughout the centuries, art has evolved to several forms among which are sculpting, painting, and even poetry. Art is the product or process of deliberately arranging items in a way that influences and affects one or more of the senses, emotions, and intellect. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music, literature, film, photography, sculpture, and paintings. The meaning of art is explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics, whereas disciplines such as anthropology, sociology and psychology analyze its relationship with humans and generations.…
"Why do we sacrifice so much energy to our art? Not in order to teach others but to learn with them what our existence, our organism, our personal and unrepeatable experience have to give us; to learn to break down the barriers which surround us and to free ourselves from the breaks which hold us back, from the lies about ourselves which we manufacture daily for ourselves and for others; to destroy the limitations caused by our ignorance and lack of courage; in short, to fill the emptiness in us: to fulfill ourselves." Art is neither a state of the soul (in the sense of some extraordinary, unpredictable moment of inspiration) nor a state of man (in the sense of a profession or social function). Art is an evolution, an uplifting which enables us to emerge from darkness into a blaze of light.…
