Baroque Art
Success for the Future I have grown as a global citizen by communicating ideas. In A.P. Euro I had to do a project called Baroque Art assigned by Mr. Dewaele and I had to find a piece of art during the Baroque Period (19th Century) to analyze the painting by looking at the emotions it had giving out in it and the feel for the painting/ style that was used to make me feel that way and why, as well as typing it up and presenting to the class about our piece we chose. Before the project, I wasn’t too sure about what the Baroque Period was like so I wasn't sure what to look for specifically in the paintings at the time. What helped me grow was looking at the art piece before I researched about it and after so I could understand what to look for to help me explain the piece, things I didn’t …show more content…
Another thing that also helped me was looking at other different Baroque art pieces and looking up those pieces to understand how all the art was connected to Baroque classification which helped me understand what the 19th Century was about. The result of this project was me growing more familiar with the Baroque Period and getting to understand history a little better in that time period. It is important not only because it sharpens my presentation skills but also helps see how the 1600s to 1750s were like in 19th century Europe, Baroque art was used to describe the period in Western European art music from about 1600 to 1750, which gives me background information about that time period. The improved skill will help me in the future if I ever have an art analysis project because I learned a technique to help me analyze the painting by looking at the art piece before I research it to notice some things

    History is compilation of data and materials gathered throughout time and analyzed to form some consensus of what happened in the past. A common way people learn about history is through reading and memorizing textbooks and historical literature. This can be an effective way of understanding the past but it is important to not overlook other ways of understanding the past such as artwork. Although artwork may not always tell the person about specific knowledge, it may sometimes give more information that other sources could not. The important thing to note about historical artwork is that it shows the scholar insight about what the people of the time thought of themselves and not what other people thought of them. In this way, artwork acts as a primary source and gives off first hand information about a people’s own culture. Specifically,…

    The one piece that I did not find interesting was the "Dad's Spanish Class" painting by Clayton Hurt. To me, it looked like an elementary student at my job can do the same job if not better. It is like a collage of magazine pictures cut out and glued to a paper then named in Spanish the different parts of the face. At one point, some of the features confused me on the whether it was a male or female. I did not like this piece at all and feel as if an elementary student can easily make it into a museum just by doing what Clayton Hurt created.…

    Music has developed a lot over the years. Classical music has evolved in a more gradual manner with a number of smaller revolutionary steps along the way. In the 9th to 14th centuries the development of music was documented in a physical form. This was where music could now be communicated efficiently, and succeeding generations would know something about the music of their ancestors. There where demands of the church that required a musical notation, and so the earliest written music was largely in Church music called Hymns. The plainsong of this time was still singlehanded, but that’s when the new developments were starting to appear.…

    When I went to the art museum, I had no idea that I would come into contact with one of my favorite Impressionists artists. I spent hours walking through the museum, gallery after gallery. Each piece was beautifully created. I saw portraits, prints, sculptures, all eccentric in their own way. My family, quickly paced, moved through the maze of colors with lightning speed. As for me, each one had an intricate story and detail that I was determined to learn.…

    The painting I have selected for my second project is the Last Supper made between 1592 and 1594 by Jacopo Tintoretto. I picked this piece of art for many reasons. When I first saw this painting I was immediately attracted to it because of the detail that went into every person. Every person seems to have their own personality and emotion. Although you are immediately drawn to Jesus Christ in the middle of the painting because of the contrast between the light and dark, you are also drawn to the darkness in the back. The time and detail put into this painting is pretty amazing.…

    The term Baroque means an irregularly shaped complex form. It came from the irregularly shaped pearl meaning unnatural and strange. This is completely different, from a description of the music of the time. Musical styles greatly different from artistic styles of the time making it virtually impossible to draw parallels between the two. Instead, one needs to draw independent conclusions about Baroque music.…
