Historical Study: David Gulpilil

David paints in the neoclassical style. Neoclassicism was an era in art where artists were inspired by Greek and Roman style. Socrates was of course Greek, so the subject matter in itself can represent the painting era. Another important aspect which is surely presented in this particular painting is the focus on the thought processes rather than sensuality of art. Subject matter was more thought provoking, dark and morally driven than it was an appeal to emotion during this era. Socrates’s calmness while dying represents that clearly. His almost divine like quality also alludes to that.

Bernini's David represents the Baroque time shift in art. The shift towards the baroque art period seemed to have a change within the overall narrative of the sculptures. Prior to Bernini’s version of David there existed David’s sculpted by Donatello and Michelangelo. Donatello’s David was sculpted during the time of humanism, where a large influence came from the ancient Greco-Roman culture. The overall emotion of the sculpture is soft and youthful and creates the image of David after he had beaten Goliath. There really is no distinct emotion within David himself in this sculpture. In the high renaissance period Michelangelo sculpted his version of David. This sculpture began to form some energy which was seen in David’s tensed facial expression,

As Davis starts to tell about his life as a young boy in America, he lets us know about his mother dying far too young, and him being raised by his father and aunt. David's dad is stereotype of a man and their emotions. He and his son never have a close relationship. Even when David gets hurt in an accident, his father doesn't want him to cry. He wants him to be a man, a manly man and

David Milne was a painter, printmaker, and writer, who captured the essence of Canadian art. Milne showed a pure aesthetic approach to his work that was dependant of his specific formula. Essentially Milne sought to reduce a painting to the basic form. David Milne was born on January 8, 1882, in a southern Ontario village named Burgoyne. David was the last of ten children to his Scottish immigrant parents. David Milne was born to be an artist, he began drawing even before starting kindergarten, and ironically enough the only subject he had ever failed in elementary school was drawing. Although Milne spent most of his artists’ career in the United States and received much adulation in New York, in Canada he was well known as a Canadian nationalist and monarchist. In his practices David used predominately oil paint, water color and drypoint printmaking. Milne’s work was similar in context and location compared to the Group of Seven, he primarily choose landscape as an image of interest. Unlike the Group of Seven, David approached his paintings with a more modern feel and developed his own particular style that was beautiful and simple. His landscapes and still images portrayed a sense of touch and feel. While the subject of Milne’s choice was from the visible world, streets, people and landscapes he portrayed a modernist style that he had learned in New York. Milne formally believed that the elements such as line, color, shape, and composition were predominating in any piece

his father and dead mother. David's father has an idealized vision of his son as

David was always a type of person inclined to be melancholy. He was always a religious person. He made sure that he did everything right, because he was afraid of death. He performed all the duties of religion without a true conversion.2

As for the painting, you can detect particulars that demonstrates the tragedy of this event. Every person seems to have a face of despair and misery. The use of pathos is demonstrated through the color David used in his illustration. All the colors are very dull and dark, giving the painting a very dreary feel. Similar to the passage, the admiration for Socrates is also reflected by the man sitting next to him as he is looking up to him while the philosopher gives his last words of

David represents the centrality of shading keeping in mind the end goal to convey the immaculateness of Socrates, while in the meantime hinting his demise. The first group of onlookers and the present day gathering of people of the artistic creation has practically finished what had been started and that crowd incorporates logicians and common individuals. Using outward appearances, a point of convergence, and hues, David contends that one ought to stay consistent with their own particular faith despite

Although both the previous events did put David into an adverse position, the following experience changed David’s outlook on life for the better. Finally there was someone to tell David the true meaning of mankind, Uncle Axel. Uncle Axel tells him to be proud of his telepathic abilities, instead of praying to be what everyone else thinks is the true image. Uncle Axel also changes David's outlook on the true image of man, he explains to him how it's not one's physical features that define him, but what's in his mind.

The lights shimmering at the background cannot be said to emanate from the lamps. From the viewer's angle, one cannot tell the source of the light. The light shining upon Socrates appears to be brighter than that from the other sources. The contrast in lighting emphasizes on the philosopher’s sanctity. Similarly, this sanctity is emphasized more in the way David focused more on painting his body. As painted, Socrates body appears to be ‘perfect’ and proportional depicting him as a person of above all beings. Beard are a symbol of wisdom, and Socrates having a beard in the painting proves his role as an advisor. Also, Socrates beliefs are portrayed on his emotion showing

Unlike the David of Donatello, Michelangelo's David is not shown after conquering his enemy. Instead, he is portrayed as an extremely athletic and manly character; the sculpture even depicts a worried look cast upon David's face and the carved marble veins seem to pulse with anticipation as he contemplates the upcoming fight. Cast over David's shoulder is his sling, and the stone is clutched in his right hand. Michelangelo's David depicts the ideal youth who has just reached manhood and is capable of great physical and intellectual feats, which is part of the classical tradition. Michelangelo's David portrays one man in a very powerful and intelligent light, and even hinting that this one man may be some

Although often described as an opportunist because of the ways David made use of the political unrest with his paintings showing constant parallels with the successive regimes of the period. With works from “The Oath of The Horatii”, to later works such as “Bonaparte Crossing the St. Bernard Pass”, David in a way can be described as a social artist because many of his paintings documented and expressed the political and emotional feeling of the times.

According to the book Home Sweet Home by author, graphic designer and friend Tristan Manco, Banksy was born in 1974 and grew up in Bristol, England. Manco also wrote that Banksy trained as a butcher but became involved in the Bristol underground scene during the late 1980s aerosol boom. The scene involved collaborations with musicians and artists. Banksy himself has said that his work was inspired by graffiti artist Robert Del Naja, also known as 3D and a founding member of the band Massive Attack. Art critics and observers have compared Banksy 's work to Blek le Rat, whose real name is Xavier Prou and who is known as the father of stencil graffiti.
