My Lighting Designer : Donald Holder

Born in Lebanon, Ohio, in 1904, Russel Wright studied in Cincinnati before moving to New York City in 1924, where he took courses in sculpture at the Art Students League. Wright then would go on to studying law at Princeton University for two years, during which he is introduced to theatrical set design, working under Norman Bel Geddes, who was one of the leading industrial

Fran admired and collected other artist’s work for her home, but also as part of her trove of infinite objects that often made their way into her art. From the mad jumble of countless boxes and bags in her studio came often playful “bricolage” works of beauty, humor and imagination. She taught for many years at the New Jersey Center for the Visual Arts, the Newark Museum and was actively teaching until just weeks before her death last year. An award-winning artist, she exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, the Smithsonian, Victoria and Albert Museum, and in galleries throughout New Jersey. She began her eight-decade career as a fashion designer before moving into painting, printmaking, found art sculpture, book and paper making, and other multi-media arts. Fran studied art at the American School of Fine Arts, Newark School of Fine Arts, and Fairleigh Dickinson University. The works in this exhibition were generously donated by Fran’s family to The 1978 Maplewood Arts Center. Proceeds from all sales will benefit the center as well as public art in the

Lighting can impact the mood and notion of a certain scene. Tim Burton, in "Edward Scissorhands", uses lighting to convey the emotion of the character and the scene. For example in the multiple scenes where the character Kim is featured, there is a glowing, faint but noticeable light around her, creating a calm aura. This has a positive effect on the audience because the lighting manipulates how Kim is perceived, which is pure and angelic. In addition to this film, Burton uses lighting quite immensely in his short based on Vincent Price, "Vincent". Vincent was based on a little boy named Vincent Malloy who was obsessed with actor Vincent Price and the brilliant poet and writer Edgar Allen Poe. In this short he dresses and acts as Vincent Price and reads day and night the work of Poe, he also invents odd concoctions and one day hopes to dip his aunt in wax for his wax museum. Over the multiple scenes, you can see Burton's use of dark lighting to portray Vincent Malloy's dark mind. For instance in the scene where Vincent's mother locks him in his room and tell him to stop letting his imagination get the best of him the lighting goes dark, which conveys Vincent's mood as sad, dark, and tormented. Another instance of Burton using lighting to impart the mood is in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". In the specific

Over the years, I have flirted with visual art. It started with pencil drawing, continued as an affair with marker illustration, then a dalliance with lettering, and I now have a relationship with photography. However, my favorite art will never be displayed in museums or galleries. It is not static and immutable. Rather, my chosen medium is fluid, living, volatile. No matter how well rehearsed, it will never be the same again. That’s the beauty of performance art.

The compelling shape and size of the unique Lim L table lamp certainly seem reminiscent of a fine art piece, possibly using emotional persuasion. It is likely that this lamp makes up for its hidden technological reasoning with its “emotional” draw. Like with Buchanan’s example of the unusually curved wrench, spectators may take a liking to the Lim L lamp’s uncommonly sleek look, regardless of whether they know the exact purpose of the piece. On the other hand, the Sanrio Hello Kitty table lamp is so kitsch-based and so reliant on its commercial appeal, it is difficult to classify it as something on the same level as fine art. That is not to say, however, that there is no emotional component to the piece, especially because this lamp is intended for a younger audience. As stated before, the table lamp is very inviting and encourages play, even if a child were to be unaware of the ever-popular Hello Kitty character. In this way, the lamp also serves as a piece that, as Buchanan stated, is “transformed into [an object] for pure contemplation, valuable in [itself] rather than as the means to some other

I have chose to tell the story, and achievements of well renown artist Peter Morgan. Peter morgan is 33 years old. He grew up in Abingdon, Va with his parents Ed, and Helen Morgan. Peter graduated from Abingdon high school in 1996. Peter had never taken a ceramics class until his sophomore year in college. His college professor at Roanoke College inspired him during his time taking ceramics to go the length with it. He went on to continue his education at Roanoke College in Salem, Va. He later received his Bachelor of Arts degree from this university. He then went on to receive his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the California College of Arts and Crafts in San Francisco, Ca. He also received his Master of Fine Arts degree at Alfred University

Barbara Millis of the United States Air Force Academy reviewed Richard Light’s Making the Most of College: Students Speak Their Minds. She explained that in recent years, many copies of “Harvard Assessment Seminars I and II” had been issued to professors to develop college student’s education further. As well as these books, Light’s book had also been used to broaden the system. Millis further stated that Light’s book involved lengthy interviews that apprehended student’s college lifestyles. The evidence among the interviews were used to collect various data.

Through the use of light, artists continue to receive a strong emotional response from the audience. This is an essential element of an audience’s perception of a work – it may determine whether the artwork is perceived as happy or depressing, or even provides the difference between whether the work is friendly and welcoming, or shocking and confronting. Artists have used light for a long time to stimulate the emotions of the viewer. Two artists that have used this technique are Bill Henson and Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, or more simply known as just Caravaggio. Bill Henson is a contemporary Australian photographer, born in 1955, while Caravaggio was an Italian painter (1571 – 1610).

The artist John Lythe Wilson I was suggested to look at and also an artist I believe can help me elevate my artwork and bring it to a level of appreciation throughout many perspectives. Wilson is an artist from Rock Hill, SC and did the bulk of his schooling in

I want to experience what it’s like to work with other artists who are all committed full-heartedly to one goal. As an enthusiastic worker, with a very versatile background, I can assist anyone who needs my help and then grow more as a performer and artist. I have studied many aspects of life, but creating is what brings joy to my life. With this apprenticeship, I will participate in theatrical creation at every level. Thank you for your time and consideration. I have enclosed a headshot and acting resume, as required, but I have also included a professional resume including my work experience in theater. I hope to hear from you

Born in Ireland and immigrated to the United States of America in Philadelphia, still life Artist William Michael Harnett began his professional career as an engraver for high-end firms at Woods & Hughes as well as Tiffany & Co in the late 1860s and early 1870s. In addition to his history of employment, he attended the nation’s most prominent schools at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the National Academy of Design, and the Cooper Union for Advancement of Science and Art where he studied after antique casts and live models. Exercising his talents in oil painting, Harnett was widely known for his magnificent still life masterpieces.

Not to mention but,the film technique that Time Burton used was High- key-lighting. High-key-light is where the scene is Full of lighting. In Tim burton’s movie Edward scissorhand when Peg has a barbeque to introduce the neighbors to Edward the scene is full of light.

I am currently a theatrical stage manager, but I have always had a deep adoration for television. While studying stage management at University of California, Irvine, I was enrolled in a course called “Careers in Stage Management,” in which different speakers with backgrounds in stage or event management discussed both their careers and our potential career options. One particularly inspiring speaker went to school for theatrical stage management and went on to be an Assistant Director Trainee and then a Second Assistant Director. She emphasized the scheduling, organizational, and problem-solving similarities between the two positions. Previously, I had believed that stage management was only a viable career within theatre, but when film and
