Leepa-Rattner Museum Of Art Analysis

The elements of art that I will be analyzing that have been portrayed in the painting Last Supper are line, shape, color, and space. Beginning with the use of lines, and shapes the dining room itself is in the shape of a rectangle. In the background, you can also see that there are two rectangular windows, and then the rectangular door in the middle which shows the outdoor scenery. Even the table is shaped

One pleasant afternoon, my classmates and I decided to visit the Houston Museum of Fine Arts to begin on our museum assignment in world literature class. According to Houston Museum of Fine Art’s staff, MFAH considers as one of the largest museums in the nation and it contains many variety forms of art with more than several thousand years of unique history. Also, I have never been in a museum in a very long time especially as big as MFAH, and my experience about the museum was unique and pleasant. Although I have observed many great types and forms of art in the museum, there were few that interested me the most.

It must have been 13 years or so since I have been to the art museum, back in elementary school, on a one of a kind field trip. 13 years is way too long to have been away from the art museum, as my experience this year reminded me that. It was a beautiful, sunny October day, although it felt like July, and it was an even better day to talk a walk through the vast, mesmerizing pieces of art that the museum has to offer. The North Carolina Museum of Art provides an abundance of artwork from various time periods, cultures, and one can find art anywhere from Egyptian, to classical, to modern and contemporary art. The artwork that the museum provides not only displays an abundance of artwork, but

The Montclair Art Museum is located in Montclair, New Jersey. The museum holds various collections throughout the year and offers an outlet for students and other artists to explore within their facilities. Upon visiting, the main exhibition presented was Matisse and American Art. This exhibition held 19 pieces created by Henri Matisse and other American artists. The museum centered on central theme of Matisse and there was a specific gallery of Matisse inspired Art. In this gallery I found Untitled #8 (2014) by Mickalene Thomas is a contemporary African-American artist born January 28, 1917 in Camden, New Jersey.

This painting depicts the scene from the Bible known as the last supper, where Jesus and his twelve disciples ate their last meal together before Jesus died. Dali is not the only artist to paint this famous scene, Leonardo Da Vinci, along with many other artists, created their own version as well. The difference is that Dali used his surrealism background to create this scene in a completely unique way. Instead of painting the twelve disciples of Jesus as individuals, Dali painted them symmetrically so that each man had another mirroring the same pose across the table. This element, along with placing the setting of the last supper in a dodecagon and showing the beautiful background, creates a calm and peaceful environment for the disciples to pray. Dali also created two focal points in this painting, while most artists tend to only choose one. The floating torso is obviously the surrealist element of this painting, but also completes the message that Dali is communicating. Though the three elements, symmetry, setting and focal points, Dali created a completely unique rendition of the last

     At the extreme right of Picasso’s mural, a woman is falling from a burning building. Flames appear to be spewing from the top of that building. The flames consist triangles with different values of gray. The same light triangles are coming from the woman’s dress. Her arms flail upwards as she falls, and it is her fall that draws the eye downward and moves the viewer through the work. Below lies the woman picking herself up off the

<br>At the bottom left side of the painting is a man about to be eaten by a termite who has a game table on his head. This is illustrating that the tables are turned on the man who has committed some terrible crime. In the Inferno this is represented by Lucifer eating the three worst sinners, Judas Iscariot, Brutus, and Cassius, all who betrayed their

I was drawn to this photograph because of its bright colors, which seem to burst from the photo. Both pieces left me wanting to learn more about the artist’s intentions and the story behind the work. Because of this, I chose these two pieces with contrasting appearances, but with similar meanings. The first piece, “Alligator Pond”

In this painting, we can see a person (man) with a pale face, standing near a barrier with chaotic environment view in the background. The person in this painting is screaming, and we can detect that he is screaming because of his expression. The impression is that, his mouth and eyes are really open with his hands on each sides of his face. In the background of this painting, we can see different colors who indicate us the chaotic environment such as bloody red, orange, deep blue, and black colors. Furthermore, behind the main character we can see two people standing with their black silhouettes.

The two works of art that I have chosen to analyze are 1) Jordan Casteel. Miles and JoJo. 2014. Oil on canvas, 54” x 72” and 2) Aaron Fowler. He Was. 2015. Mixed media, 134” x 165” x 108”. The themes that these works of art represent in regards to the exhibit are love, family, and pain. However, they also fall into other thematic categories. The main theme that seems to apply to both “Miles and JoJo” and “He Was” is Human Experience. Additionally, these arts differ in some ways.

Shepard Fairey’s piece titled Pay Up or Shut Up is a representation of the role that money or your role in society dictate the power of your speech. This piece of art by Fairey was released in May of 2015. It is a screen print on cream speckletone paper.

The S.W.O.T. analysis for the Cinicinnati Art Museum is what gives the viewer the information to easily see what is wrong and isn’t wrong with the museum, while providing information on possibilities the museum can capitalize on and what threats could harm the museum.

My medium will be text. I will visit the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco on a Sunday and ask twenty random visitors several questions about their Asian-American identity (if they are Asian-American) and attitudes towards Asian-Americans. Before I begin the conversation, I will give a brief background about what we’ve been discussing in class. I will then ask them what prompted them to come to the museum, what connections they have with Asian or Asian-American culture, how often they think about race, how they see themselves in the “social hierarchy” of races (versus other races/ethnicities), and what languages they speak. It is important to note that these questions are more of a way to guide a conversation than a way to quickly get responses.

Statue I draws from Greek and Roman influences to create a piece that elucidates the impossible conflicts—between age and youth, wisdom and athleticism—that are formed by the discordance of the piece as a unit.
