Agnes Martin was a pioneer of modern art and a pivotal female figure in 1912 through 2004. Her work unifies the mathematical rigor of geometric abstraction with the sensitivity and tactility of the hand-drawn line. Her best work was the periods that define her career. During 1954 and 1967, Martin was transitioning from the biomorphic forms of the 1950s to the ground-breaking grid paintings of the 1960s. In 1967, Martin stopped making art but she continued drawing in 1974. During this time, she continued to refine the abstract vocabulary for which she is known…
Her work is rich in natural materials, clean lines, crisp simplicity and although she doesn’t have a signature style, she is highly driven by the ‘brief’ to give her clients something unique and that is distinctly their own.…
In fact, her paintings were especially important to Aboriginal people because she encouraged the white, mainstream society to acknowledge their culture and appreciate its uniqueness. She strongly believed that Australia deserved to develop their own style of art and nationality suggesting that her designs could be based on Aboriginal art. Her Aboriginal Glyph, painted in 1953 shows these ideas. Some of her works also featured a number of scenic Australian landscapes, particularly harbour views from her home in Sydney's suburb of…
I will be describing and evaluating the works and artists described above. To begin I will describe each work and its symbolism. I will then summarize the artists and the times of their artworks. Afterwards, I will explain how the works fit into the time period and then compare and contrast all three artworks.…
Many artists enjoy exploring new ideas and concepts and creating them. Most artists think of themselves in one or more of the roles when approaching their art work. First, artists believe they are helping people to see the world in new and innovative ways. Secondly, they believe they are making a visual record of places, people, and events of their time and place (Sayre, 2009). Third, they are making functional objects and buildings more pleasurable and giving them meaning, and finally, artists believe they are giving form to immaterial ideas and things (Sayre, 2009).…
What would you do if you heard a knock on your door at 2:00 am and someone informed you that your husband was dead? This is the scenario that happens to Kathryn Lyons and her husband Jack Lyons, who is a pilot. Kathryn is now trying to juggle raising her fifteen-year-old daughter Mattie with the help of her grandmother, Julia, and trying to avoid all the questions and accusations from the press. She is also discovering things about her husband that she never knew before and wondering why he was keeping these secrets from her all these years.

Bennett was born in Monto, Queensland in 1955 of Anglo-Celtic and Aboriginal ancestry (Taylor, 2009). His paintings incorporate narrative through the use of graphic detail. Bennett possesses international critical acclaim achieved through the intricate behaviour in which his work connects with historical and contemporary questions of cultural and personal identity. This engagement comprises of a specific focus on Australia’s colonial past and its postcolonial present (National Gallery of Victoria, n.d.).…

I chose to evaluate two works of art from two different time periods, one from the Baroque era and another from the Neoclassical artworks. The first piece of artwork that I chose is the "Resting Girl". This beautiful work of art was created by Francois Boucher in 1715 and is the perfect example of a late Baroque style painting which features the Rococo style. This painting is located in the Wallraf Museum in Cologne, Germany. This painting consists of oil on canvas and was the very example of applying a light romantic touch. Boucher used light and delicate colors with emphasis on the interiors which were elegant and exuded luxury.…

Elizabeth Gaskell’s “Mary Barton” is a novel of social reform that explores injustice, abuse and inequality. The novel is especially concerned with the societal condition of England at the time. In her “Preface” Mrs. Gaskell asserted, “I know nothing of Political Economy, or the theories of the trade. I have tried to write truthfully”. The “truth” of “Mary Barton” is not political or economic but the truth of the human heart. The novel is not about industrial conditions but about people living in those conditions.…
