Oscar Wild's And Tim O Brien

Art-(noun)- the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.

Art has been a factor of our life as long as humanity has existed. For thousands of years, art has been created, observed, critiqued, and enjoyed by human beings in many regions across the world. Art aren’t just murals, sculptures, music, books or anything that someone may define as art but more of a bigger picture like if has a deeper meaning such a message or a theme that is looked upon. Art can be viewed at as many different ways in terms of people having different reactions or observing it in a different meaning. Someone could feel that the art work is very extraordinary and unique but someone else can have a different reaction and feel like it is no different than other artworks and have a literalist view upon the art. One art that made

It is hard to piece together the beliefs that a Realist person has versus the beliefs of a Transcendentalist has. The book contains both philosophies about them but the book itself portrays more of a Transcendentalist feel to it. The author portrays himself as a Realist, he may be known to write about nature, outdoors, but he has a different outlook. In the book, Into the Wild written by Jon Krakauer talks about a young man named Chris McCandless who decides to walk alone into the wilderness in Alaska to invent a new life for himself. He then struggles to make it out on his own and his body is found inside a bus. While both philosophies of Realism and Transcendental exist in Into the Wild, Realism is the real focus for Jon Krakauer.

Art is something that is often overlooked and never appreciated. What constitute as art depends on individuals and their interest. There are numerous art styles that contribute to the different styles of art. Famous artist Betye Saar and Charles White both contribute to the idea that art can be done in different ways, styles and methods. Betye Saar and Charles White were two African American artist who were very successful though they had two different styles of art.

Brett Schaefer and Steven Groves believes the United States decision was justifiable. They argue that the International Criminal Court has a worthy purpose, but still has issues that need to be addressed before the United States would join the court. Schaefer and Groves explain the Article 98 Agreement and the American Service Member Protection Act. Also their argument contains the five concerns the Bush Administration had about joining the ICC, but the two major concerns regard the fear of political abuse of power and also the threat to national sovereignty.

The aim of the writer of this paper will be to summarize this week reading of Jerry Pipes and Victor Lee, Family to Family: Leaving a Lasting Legacy. A discussion that he hopes to includes; an abstract, alone with a concrete response of a story about a significant event of his life, with a reflection of the Family to Family, conclude with three action steps that will describe what actions/changes need to be made as a result of reading this book.

I want to start off by clarifying the three main people in this case. They are Jack Wright, John Rock, and Sam Bigger. There are a few other people as well, but they are not worth noting. Jack is the CEO of Dryden Corporation and John is the CEO of Mega Corporation. John has been talking to Jack about the possibility of joining Mega Corporation’s board of directors. Sam Bigger is the chairman and former CEO of Mega Corporation. They need an answer from Jack by the end of the month in order to get his name in for nomination. However, there are some issues that Jack wants to think through and discuss with his wife before making a decision.

Art, what is Art? It is an ambiguous matter: without an exact form, an exact meaning. Does it have any rules or restrictions? However, it can be a great influence on the lives of people. In the novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, two lovers have fell in and out of love due to Art!

When trying to define art, humankind runs in to many difficulties. Traditional concepts of art include painting, sculpture, drawing, and photography. Art can also be one

What can art vaguely be defined as, “the idea may be about anything, from gender to technology, social issues, religion, and even perception itself. And it doesn’t matter if the object or idea has any sense of beauty at all.” (Ford Crull). Art is a hard thing to give a specific definition to because there is always going to be some new form of art that will mix up whatever definition is given to the word art.

What is art exactly? Art can come in several shapes and forms. In some cases, art can be used for entertainment purposes, or they can expressed through a debate or argument.  It can be personal, for example, perspectives on the way the world is seen, expressing one’s thoughts, emotions, and desires. Artistic creativity is widely common amongst different cultural practices, expressing beauty within inherited ideas passed down from generation to generation.

I believe art is one’s ability to express themselves creatively in whatever field of choice they choose. Art can be defined in so many ways. Our art experience is based on seeing, feeling, and what we know. After all art is an expression of emotions. Our responses to art are a learned behavior that is influenced by class, gender, race, geography, education and culture. The art forms that have meaning to me are Music, Poetry and Photography. The essence of my culture and who I am resonates in these works of art.

The picture of Oscar Wilde is still fuzzy and incomplete but in the popular imagination, he remains an iconic, larger-than-life figure - largely because of his public persona and modus vivendi: He was a flamboyant dandy and a brilliant wit; a refined, decadent aes-thete. Professionally, he produced excellent prose pieces and composed arguably only mediocre poetry and he vociferously proposed unconventional theories about art and aesthetics. Yet, Wilde continues to be shrouded in this heavy fog of mystery. He is above all an inscrutable enigma. While he may at times give away the real and authen-tic nature of his complex self, at other times this self cunningly conceals itself behind a mask. In this sense, Wilde knew exactly how to transcend history with a strange, shad-owy presence that will

What defines art? More importantly, who defines good or bad art? Does that make one who deals with art in any way is a judge in their own right? When viewed in that perspective, art is practically subjective in its natural state. Perhaps, that is why the artistic community is so diverse. It could be said that each of those categories are composed of artists who prefer that certain style of expression. Vincent Willem van Gogh, generally speaking, falls into the category of being an Post Impressionist, with a twist.

3). This latter definition is more comprehensive than the former because it explains that art requires skill and is a medium through which an artist conveys a message. Yet even this description is not completely accurate. First, artists occasionally create ‘ugly’ artwork to express inner turmoil or to convey harsh truths about society. Second, not all imaginative designs can be considered great art. Although creating a mural for a home, for example, certainly requires imagination and skill, the mural might not qualify as a work of art according to the judgement of art historians. Perhaps a better way to ‘define’ art would be to utilize a multifaceted approach, such as that suggested by Jeffrey T. Dean. Dean proposes that in order to determine whether a certain work can truly be considered art, it should be compared to “radial categories” of artwork (31) in the context of the “historical narrative” of art (29). In other words, the item in question must have some relation, whether direct or indirect, to a recognized work of art, and the connection between the two pieces (if one exists) will likely correlate to known developments in art history (31 – 33). Based on these definitions, what types of creative works would not be considered art? According to Maria Khan, “Art is derived from our external and internal experiences. Art is a projection of what you experience, how you view the world and what you want to
