Los Lobos De Loyola

Lazarus calls the statue the "Mother of Exiles" which calls with silent lips, "Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" Meaning the Statue of Liberty is welcoming all those who need a home, offering a safe haven to all. This then implies that those who come to the statue are looking for a safe haven, for a shared dream of the future which the Statue of Liberty is

The first thing you notice about sculpture is the texture of it, it feels smooth, like its made of a clay yet it has a lot of depth and value, the skull itself isn’t proportional since it is tilted to

On Friday I had the honor to visit the historical Rancho Los Cerritos House; also known as Rancho Los Cerritos or Casa de los Cerritos, in Long Beach, California, it was the largest and most impressive adobe residence raised in southern California during the Mexican period. The structure of the house was built in 1844 by merchant Jonathan Temple, a Yankee pioneer who became a Mexican citizen. Los Cerritos means "the little hills" in English. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970. I wasn’t lucky enough to visit this phenomenal and historical place until I took advantage of my history assignment and I decided to visit Rancho Los Cerritos with the company of some of my friends. On a Friday morning we took the chance and we

La Llorona or the Crying woman is a legend that goes back century’s in the Mexican culture. Some of the earliest recorded sightings are legends of The Aztecs, who say that the goddess Cihuacoatl took the form of a woman dressed all in white and spent the nights weeping about the impending doom of the native people by the Spanish conquistidors.

This Statue represents Thirty-nine Baltimoreans who died in the battles Lady Baltimore commemorates. This occurred between Sep. 12th and 15th in 1814 and plans for the monument in their honor began not long after. This statue represents the city of Baltimore. During the weekend I went to visit the replica statue and made an evaluation. The texture looked to be smooth her dress looks to be loose fitting and draped there are multiple lines and her hair looks soft, the statue looks to be showing motion as she holds her arm up with a perfect balance. She has a crown that sits on her head, the color looks to be fresh and clean being as though the new statue is only 3 years old. I saw a lot of space around the statue. I thought the Statue looked beautiful and I am honored to have seen it. I also gathered information about the original statue it stands 52 feet above ground, both of the arms have been broken off over the years by a combination of wind and rain and also has ruined the statue's eyes, nose, and ears. Underneath the monument, there are 18 layers of stone which are the number of states in the union in

Walking around campus and looking at all the statues and the art pieces in the Bizzell Memorial Library it was hard to choose which two pieces I thought had the most in common. After going back and forth, the two pieces that I decided had the most in common were the The “Sower” by Paul R. Moore located between the Centennial Arches on the south end of the south oval and the Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher Garden located on the north end of campus, next to Jacobson Hall. I chose these two because they both have historical meaning and are cornerstones for the University. I think we should admire these two sculptures for their profound meaning and character. These two pieces of art work have a background and a story that contributes to their uniqueness.

San Juan del Rio Catholic School (SJDR) is a parish within the Diocese of St. Augustine. It is located in Saint John’s County and in a rather affluent section. There are many strengths of San Juan del Rio Catholic School but there are some weaknesses that need to be addressed. One of the main things we need at San Juan del Rio is more activities and sports teams. Our students are very competitive and play numerous sports are a part of many clubs outside of school. They are also very involved in many activities which require travel throughout the year. Having more activities and sports teams throughout the school year would ensure a variety of students enrolling in our school and would meet the needs of the students at SJDR. After-school programs develop critical traits that prepare our students or adulthood while keeping them safe and entertained.

In this case for our group project, we were informed to relate the story of La Llorona and how does the book So Far From God, author Ana Castillo, relate to each other. In addition, there is a specific character that reminds us who is related to La Llorona. For the people who does not know the story of La Llorona, she had two children and lived a happy life with a dashing husband. However, she starts to realize that her beauty is not being looked upon from her husband. Since knowing she does not get the attention like she use to before, her anger has lead her to throw her two children in a river. Realizing her mistake, she tries to find her childrens. With no sign of them being found, she is found dead at the river. Due to this horrible ending,

The statue has so many little yet powerful symbols that truly make it a unique and one-of-a-kind piece. The torch for example is a symbol that is used to represent enlightenment, liberty, and freedom. The illumination from this torch

For my enrichment report, I decided to take a trip to the Los Angeles County Museum. However, I was trapped with the challenging choice of choosing only one museum for my cultural visit. Since, there are so many prodigious and amazing museums to choose from to visit in the county. But, I have heard many great feedbacks about the Los Angeles County Museum of Art from fellow classes mates, friends and family. So, I finally, had my destination set to and planned a visit to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Upon my visit my attention was already fixated on the unique building layout and the many arts exhibited located all around the outside of the museum building. There were several building that housed the many different art exhibits. Such as the first building I walked into, after purchasing a ticket. This building was called the “Ahmanson” building, which housed voluminous and diverse art of the European, Islamic, South and Southeast Asian Art, Art of the Ancient World, Art of the Pacific and Others. There were also many special exhibitions that was hosted at the time of my visit, such as the modern art gallery and Rifkin Gallery for German Expressionism. One of the sculpture centered in the middle of the building of the “Ahmanson” building called “Smoke” really caught my attention. As it quite an enigmatic and stunning metal sculpture that mesmerizes illusions based on your interpretation and perspective of the piece.

The figure is made out of fiberglass with a urethane finish, and sized at 127 x 34 x 50 inches. Standing tall facing the north of the campus, the figures are moving towards MacKay Hall, Iowa State’s Home Economics building. Luis Jiménez’s work of art has a purpose as it celebrates the immigrant and is especially dedicated to his grandfather who crossed the border illegally with his father and grandmother. This was stated on Iowa State’s museum website as the article spoke more about Luis Jiménez and his history.

The memorial was found to be the “most mocked and reviled sculpture” in Boston according to the Globe’s Sebastian Smee. His superlatives for the memorial are harsh, but the memorial’s contrast between a starving family and a rich one were a bit odd when I examined in person. As someone with Irish heritage I should have felt more of a connection with my ancestors. Instead I was left wondering what exactly was going in the depiction and why are the pigeons so into it?

First of all, the sculpture will fill our lives with the beauty of art as citizens. For example, “the History of Public Art” article gives a background on ancient greek statues and temples, and it states that the “structures helped unite the citizens of the communities of which they stood by providing a concrete focus for national identity and pride” (The History of Public Art). For

The marble used to create the sculpture brings out the fine quality of such material. It also adds elegance and sensuous grace to the whole sculpture. The use of marble links the sculpture to the radiance and softness of the female skin. The hips of the

Our world is full of so many grandiose monuments, eye-catching sculptures, and stunning statues, each having an individual story to tell. Thousands of them have been created however, only a small number of them are actually extraordinary and picture-worthy. This paper will compare and contrast two of those picture-worthy sculptures. Furthermore, I will examine the aspects of each of these sculptures. I will compare and contrast what each of them represents, the differences in texture, their size and their tone.
