So after Daedalus had built the wings he warned Icarus about how to use the wings and to follow him and to not wander off at first Icarus was doing fine until he got in the great joy of flying he had forgot all what his father had told him so he just kept moving his arms up and down going higher into the sky until Icarus went higher and higher into the sky and the air about him grew warmer but Icarus flew on for he had forgotten his father's warning then Icarus saw feathers floating in the air at that moment he had remembered what his father had told him but it was too late the heat of the sun had already melted the wax that held the feathers to the framework Icarus suddenly started sinking he quickly tried to flap his wings quickly to fly but the feathers were falling he cried but it was to late Icarus had already fallen to the ocean Daedalus had heard his cry so he flyed to the spot but there was no sign of his son anywhere all that was left was a few white feathers floating on the water but Daedalus continued his journey he had reached the shore in a wonderful island but he was so upset of losing his son he never tired flying again. but having wings for Daedalus and Icarus was important because they escaped the island, but Daedalus son died and he spent his whole life

According to Mandel, art reminds us that we’re human. It is a subconscious human instinct, even “in the midst of catastrophe” (Knopf).

Through the cultural frame, artworks are concerned with understanding how an artwork is influenced by the values of the society it is produced in, and, in turn, how the artwork influences the values of the society. This includes examining the historical and cultural context in which the work was made, and religious and/or philosophical beliefs, which may have influenced the work. Plate 1, ‘Corpse in Barbed Wire’ 1924 is a German Expressionist etching by Otto Dix, reflecting war and. His works document the reality of the through the subject matter and positioning. He uses abstraction of form to represent the effects and perceptions of war. The work is also an example of German expressionism, a popular art movement at the time it was created.

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.

While walking in to an art gallery, everyone had a moment of stopping in their tracks to be memorized by a painting or a drawing. Only to think about what that art is about and the meaning behind it. Especially at a holocaust museum. There are many works of art about the holocaust. The prisoners had a life story to share. Also, the people who did the art works had to be careful, not to be caught by the Germans. The reason for this, was it was illegal to draw what's actually happening in the camps. Few of the prisoners were "privileged" to make art for the Germans, to only draw or paint what the Germans say. The prisoners were only chosen, because they were talented enough. But for the prisoners who weren't "privileged" had to be smart, by

Edna St. Vincent Millay’s “Thou famished grave” and “Mindful of you” both include the themes of death, however, “Thou famished grave” uses the personification of a grave as a starving beast, diction to add imagery of starvation, and an image of a strong will to live to show the resentfulness and bitterness that the speaker has towards death, while, “Mindful of you” uses the imagery and personification of the four seasons to remember someone close who has died, to express that although death may take people physically, but they live and are remembered through memories.

While death was the major tragedy of the Holocaust, all of the art stolen was definitely a dark spot. Most people don’t realize, but the art was taken from all Jews and many others by the Nazis. Some pieces of art have been found, but most still remain lost. Many that have been discovered are in museums and are not given to the true owners. There should be efforts spent on finding and recovering the art stolen by the Nazis to return it to their rightful owners.

History is a recollection of memories maybe jotted down into a book or told by that one old guy with alzheimer's still living. Amazingly photos are actual evidence of occurrences throughout history, but they also make people bring their own theory to the image. A shocking image such as evidence of the holocaust,“Concentration camp inmates leave their ghostly traces through nail scratches, as seen throughout this gas chamber.” (50 Influential). The photo can be seen in multiple different point of views based on the person. Everyone has experiences either the best or the worst but relate these to the mental story. Ideas of some can lead into misinterpretations of history. My own ideas behind this photo is chills down my spine from an unimaginable experience in auschwitz concentration camp in Poland. This image to me is a remembrance of a 3 by 6 concrete box that greater than 3 people were forced to live in at auschwitz. The box had worse living conditions then a rat cage literally. A vivid image that can be neither wrong nor right but rather brought from my own mind. I could tell others about this image but it would not truly stick with someone unless the person had actually gained the wholesome experience with me. All images are just immaterial objects with great value behind it. The true value is within your own mind not the image itself. In the article “Remembrance” the author

This paper will deal with the Perspective of War and how the certain aspects of war has forever changed the history and thought processes of civilizations worldwide. The paper will focus on the duty and action of war, the destruction and fear of war, and finally the memory of war.Investigating these ideas will give us a broader understand of how war has forever changed us as a society and how art is the perfect representation of this change.

The collection of images in the Auschwitz Album offered a perspective of the Holocaust from a primary perspective, a photograph. The images display real events of what Jewish people had to endure on their way to Auschwitz, one of the most devastating and infamous concentration camps. While illustrating a panel based off of one of these images, I used many different techniques, inspired by Art Spiegelman, the author of Maus. I adopted these techniques to display the emotion and density of the tone the photograph gives off. My illustration is loosely based on the photograph I selected from the Auschwitz Album, which displays many women and children waiting on a platform, anticipating their deportation. My drawing focuses on a mother and her

where he comments that it is “some form of guilt about having an easier life than they did" (Spiegelman II, 14). This form of guilt stems from never having to live through the Holocaust. Moreover, Art is not

Over the course of the trimester, the Holocaust class at Rigby High School has taught me many of the unspeakable acts committed by the Nazis. This class has also taught me the silent bravery and determination of many of the innocent victims. To exhibit what I’ve learned about the Holocaust, I’ve decided to build a sculpture for my final project. My sculpture is a loosely-based model of the Holocaust Memorial in Miami Beach, Florida. The memorial, which portrays a hand reaching skywards with hundreds of human bodies clinging to it, was created in 1984 by a small group of Holocaust survivors. There were numerous challenges that the creators faced. These challenges included protests against the construction of the monument,

Art is an outlet through which one is capable of conveying their thoughts, emotions and stories. After the Holocaust in particular, people were able to view the world through the viewpoint of these artists. With the ability to see the victim’s emotions portrayed visually, one can begin to comprehend them from a personal perspective and understand the sentiments of sorrow.

Last friday a guest came (Erik Cuba) he had a power point to demonstrate Auschwitz. Over 2 million jews died in the horrible camps.The worst part is that Auschwitz was amazingly beautiful,they were very OCD about their building style. Beautiful red brick buildings were perfectly lined up in a very very straight parallel bock sections. The grass was very well kept the trees were also very very well trimmed.

Daedalus and Icarus- A king on the island of Crete had a fantastic inventor named Daedalus. Daedalus built the Labyrinth for King Minos to keep the Minotaur out. But after he was finished, King Minos decided to keep Daedalus prisoner because he had learned all of the king’s secrets. The only other prisoner was the Daedalus’s son Icarus. Daedalus and Icarus both wanted to escape. Daedalus had the idea that they could escape by creating bird wings for Icarus and himself so they could fly out of there. Daedalus told Icarus to be careful; if he flew to close to the son the wax from the wings would melt, and if he flew too close to the sea he’d fall in. Icarus said he’d be careful, but when they were flying, Icarus got bored. He began doing many tricks and flying higher and higher, ignoring his father. He got too close to the son and the wax melted; he fell from the sky and drowned. Daedalus sadly searched for the body, and when he finally found it all he could do was burn it. This story is significant because it shows the significance of following directions and listening to your elders; you may end up in big trouble if you don’t, like Icarus
