Glenn Ligon’s artwork is both dark and colorful. Ligon displays artwork about both sides of himself, the African American side and the homosexual side. His paintings examine and explore cultural and social identity and help reveal how the history of America has molded our society today. After observing some of Ligon’s works, I can say that he can either be simple or tangent off into something deep and meaningful. For example, in “Condition Report”, there is only “I am a man” stenciled onto a blank white canvas, then there is another one of his artworks that has more depth such as “Untitled (I Feel Most Colored When I Am Thrown Against a Sharp White Background)” which has “I feel most colored when I am thrown against a sharp white background”

The excerpt above is part of Ronald Reagan's campaign speeches in California on March 31, 1976. Reagan's speech is reflective of the problems that forcing groups of individuals together forcibly and unnaturally. Professor Zoë Burkholder candidly highlights in the journal article "From Forced Tolerance to Forced Busing: Wartime Intercultural Education and the Rise of Black Educational Activism in Boston," that integrated busing was unsuccessful because both white and black students were still working to understand the tolerance of each other.

Thirty-six years after his death, African-American artist Norman Lewis is finally having his moment. For 50 years, the abstract artist painted with a style all his own - and now the art world is finally catching up with him. Norman know he was going to get notice until thirty or forty years later. For fifty years, he painted a style of his own, style of color, and line. Norman always talked about excellence and reaching for the sky and what does it really mean. Decades later, seven museum own some of his painting. I think the work is complex and beautiful. Norman was born in Harlem in 1909 Caribbean immigrants. He was inspire by the renaissance. As he looking at Harlem, he is seeing people warming them self and people shopping. In the mid 1940’s,
Artworks are all unique and hold very significant meanings to the artist. Each artist’s art is meant to symbolize or represent something whether personally, socially, or universally. Charles W. White’s art, for example, focused on his and other African-Americans’ struggle to live in America during the 20th century. His artworks subjects are mainly about racism and the dignity of African-American’s. For example, in White’s Sound of Silence II it gives strength and courage to African-Americans to take pride in their ethnicity.
This artwork most closely resembles a line from Ralph Emerson’s “Self-Reliance,” and his transcendentalist philosophy. Emerson states that “[a] man should learn to detect … that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within … [y]et he dismisses [it] without notice … because it is his” The gleam of light, as described by Emerson, resembles the colors that protrude from the heads of the figures within Johanson’s artwork. None of the figures in the painting seem to notice this light that sprouts from within them, and is dismissed, as Emerson states it, in the form of ominous darkness. Furthermore, the transcendentalist philosophy that promotes individuality is well applied within Johanson’s artwork within the unique figures that stand out of the crowd; their thoughts however, alongside the
The aforementioned are perhaps his most compelling arguments consist of the fact that, yes, race with its often concurrent circumstances, can and do limit options not only for the artist but art appreciation. Secondly, I think he is right when he relates the ultimate futility of materialism; however, I doubt that African-Americans, by virtue of the past, are any less susceptible to these phenomena than their white counterparts. Indeed, even when the United States elected an African-American President, while a turning point in American history, it didn’t automatically herald a Golden Age of enlightenment. If anything it was an anticlimax; it merely revealed that revealed people are not their skin colors; and that we still have the same issue no matter what race or gender resides in the oval office.

Every marketing company seems to know how, if they say that everyone who is “with it” has forsaken dial-up for high-speed internet, then sooner or later people will buy into that ethos and spend accordingly. Ditto: a product or service that vendors claim will improve how we or others perceive ourselves as individuals. As recent
Joseph Leyendecker is perhaps one of the greatest illustrators of all time. When thinking of his work the most popular that comes to mind is the work he did for the covers of the Saturday Evening Post. Through his work Leyendecker had a great impact on several future illustrators. In fact, it was the wonderful work of Leyendecker that inspired a great number of Norman Rockwell’s paintings.
Ernie's medical treatment seems to be a misdiagnosis. I do not support a treatment for a medical assessment that seems to have been made very hastly and quick. I understand that assessments and evaluations are made based on the patients symptoms and any medical condition and medication that a patient may have prior to being assessed. I also understand that maybe patients do not properly state what exactly they are feeling, or what symptoms they may have, or either make an exaggeration of their symptoms. Physicians have to make diagnosis based on what the patient states their symptoms are. Diagnosis occur within a 25-40 minute appointment session and the physician makes a diagnosis for a possible treatment regimen. The treatment regimen will
Lee Beaton created Colours of the City using acrylic on canvas. The painting is currently on exhibit at Cre8ery Gallery located in Winnipeg’s Exchange District. Beaton focuses on creating architectural themed paintings or energized abstracts. This particular painting has a large size of 48” x 36” which can only be entirely viewed when standing several feet back. Beaton does not have a specific audience she is aiming towards when creating her paintings. She wants to share with the viewers how “we are all beautiful” and also wants to show “that it is what is inside that makes us beautiful”. In Colours of the City, Beaton uses form, content, and style to capture the ideas and design of the city that gives this art piece an interesting well worth seeing aspect.

Jacob Lawrence paintings is easily understood because of his style that easily attracts audiences.The inspiration he projects from his works are "drawn directly from the struggle and life of Blacks in America," therefore, it reflects the cultural background out of which he was born into. To accomplish such tedious task, he uses a contrast in color with a pinch of happiness in every sad picture he draws; " his epic story of struggle, hope, and perseverance." For example in picture no. 57 a woman is mopping the floors. Among all the darkness, green and black, he has the colors pink and yellow. I suppose Lawrence does this to have sign of hope in his paintings. Some of his people in his pictures are not exactly symmetrical, more like blobs, because
Dark colors picture anguish, loneliness and to a certain extent the feeling of insignificance of the man. On the other hand, bright colors denote what he thinks of his lover. Munch use lines to draw the viewer’s attention to the main area of interest. In this case, that is the connectedness of the man with his lover despite their separation. One example of a line is the woman’s golden hair floating towards him as a symbol of their love. Lines are also used to etch the man’s facial expressions and the woman’s lack thereof. But other than the two lovers, the nature in the background has a symbolic meaning. The crimson bush, the tree, the land, the sky and the water all help represent the man’s inner turmoil. All of the elements of the painting collectively help to convey the permanence of
