Conflict And Art Analysis

This painting is a portrait of an old woman who is sitting on a chair while facing to the left. She is wearing a yellow flower dress with a beige jacket while sitting in an empty room. Her beauty is illustrated by her curly, gray hair and also her wrinkled face, neck, and hands. These details is what makes her look real and pure. I like how detailed it is because it reminds me of my grandmothers.

Paintings are different than books or movies because they allow you to create your own thoughts and interpretations rather than telling you what you should think. This allows creative and different takes on an original piece of art.The Surrender, a painting by Joseph Griffith, was published in October of 2006. It features two sides in what appears to be a war. The left side is occupied by the epitome of American icons and showcases the American flag, while the left side contains, not only enemies of America, but “bad guys” from classic movies surrendering with a white flag. This painting can be interpreted as labeling popular American icons as heroes, showing the change in society’s change in what they consider a role model.

The painting shows a young soldier seated on a box just to the left of center, in what appears to be a mechanics workshop, surrounded by six other people. He is dressed in a green military uniform; his shirt has a lighter green tone compared to his pants. His military hat is tall, circular and perched high on his head with a leather band around the base of the hat where it meets the black brim. Affixed to the front of the hat appears to be a black insignia. He wears six different color ribbons over his

A war won by pure heart and soul. Americans are underdogs in this war but in the end they come out on top. That’s the good news, but the bad is how the war was started. Paul Revere’s painting is extremely influential in starting the war. I feel it shows who the cowards are in this war, how and whose blood was shed in the massacre, and what effect this had on America.

These paintings were created after the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 which gave slaves their freedom from their master and certain rights as human beings. Now thanks to this decree these former slaves can do activities that were never allowed to do by their masters like reading or going to carnivals which are depicted in the painting without the fear

An artist's job is to interpret, and express the aspects of life in a creative fashion. War has played a big part in shaping our human history, and many artists have portrayed their feelings about art through paintings, and even monuments. Whether it be to show; the joy of victory, the sorrow of defeat, or to educate the public on the gory realities of war. Art about war can also show us a great amount of history of the kinds of weapons that were used at the time. It is necessary for artists to interpret, and criticize all aspects of life; even ones as tragic as war, It can make the public more aware of what goes on in times of war.

From a distance, the painting appears to be unbelievably smooth but as you get close, you’ll notice how fine the brushes he used.

Painters enormously manipulated the truth in their portraits they painted since they aimed to present a specific meaning or feeling to their observers. One of the results, paintings of America`s wars especially before the Civil War had a

In the contemplation of art, or rather the conceptually intangible definition it currently possess, it is imperative to be mindful that “art” has been utilized as a promotional device, ceremonial item, aesthetically purposed article or perhaps none of these or all. It is because of this vague term that Carolyn Dean, in her text, “The Trouble with (The Term) Art”, makes a case for the consequences of applying the term “art” in societies that lacked such a notion which also accounts for the Western-centric lens the field intrinsically utilizes when viewing non-Western art. The claim is deftly supported by the utilization of expert accounts in the subject, alternative perspectives for what is considered the current norm, and self-examining questions,

The artist is unknown but it is from the 18 century depicting the march to the versailles. Women line up in the thousands to make the march with pitchforks, sword, and muskets in hand ready to use. Charles dicken recalls the march to the versailles in tale of two cities. He describes the men fearful of the women and that they were grabbing any weapon they could find. He also describes the women as a sight to see and bold for their age.(Dickens, 171-172) The painting give that image of the women were a force to be reckoned with. The women of the painting are holding weapons and marching as though that was their life’s purpose. This artist obviously was inspired by the events happening around him and put his talent to use. From there Dickens took inspiration from the painting to his novel. This piece of artwork is an example of inspiring charles dickens while he wrote Tale of Two Cities from an artist almost a century before

I will be doing a creative project about political art with the intention of creating a portfolio which will capture the current state of American politics. I chose this topic because throughout the presidential election, I observed the way candidates and their supporters used visual images to to support their causes. When I participated in the Women’s March On Washington, I was blown away by the creative, funny, and powerful signs I saw. Throughout this year, I found that the one thing almost everyone in my life agrees on is that it was the we are living in an extremely polarized country and time. I want to take senior exploration as an opportunity to convey this intense political climate. I chose to use art, as opposed to writing or music, because I really enjoy it and do not think I will have the opportunity to do much art after high school.

The artwork being analyzed is called Nameless and Friendless and it was completed in 1857 by Emily Mary Osborn. The artwork was most likely created in England, where she was from. The media is oil paints on canvas, rather than the wood that was usually used. It is currently on display in Tate, Britain.

This is truly a fascinating topic to be discussing, as I have often pondered and discussed with friends how we should examine films. I personally am of the mind that director intent is an important thing to keep in mind when you're viewing a film, as it can tell you a lot about the artist and where their mind was at when they were making the film. As scholars we should try to avoid putting words in other people's mouths, if Ridley Scott believes their is no message in the film than the artist obviously never intended to produce anything other than their own artistic vision. On that note, that doesn’t mean that we as scholars and viewers shouldn’t discuss how we see a film, what we interpret from the characters/storytelling and the aesthetic choices. Everyone has their own view on a film and ignoring your own feelings when discussing it with others or in a paper would be a waste of a unique perspective. In short I think the director's intent and individual views should have symbiotic relationship, keeping both perspectives in mind is something I always try to do and it
