Pablo Picasso Comparison

This paper will discuss two iconic impressionist artist, Vincent Van Gogh and Edgar Degas. I will give details on these two artist lives, and see how they use impressionism to make their beautiful paintings like, Vincent Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” and Edgar Degas’ “Dancers in Blue”. I will explain how Lucy Lipids 3-pronged analysis can apply to both of these paintings, and how a few of the Gestalt Principles can be seen in these painting.

Through the years art has been regarded as a form of communication, emotion, a feeling or expression of ideas, by which we mean a person or convey something. This idea can be captured in a painting, sculpture or even through writing, which through their expressions disclose the most characteristic form of a culture. By century to century there has been many creative persons like writer, artist, composer who contributed to development in the all creative fields. We also had so many great visual artists who create greatest arts, music and books. Pablo Picasso is one of them, who took modern art at new level. He was one of well-known artist in history .In fact, his vision and distinct creative style, some of the most innovative pieces he introduced to the art world.

In this essay, I will be comparing and contrasting artists Pablo Picasso and Van Gogh, considering their intentions with their artwork. Van Gogh and Picasso two of the most famous artists out there and still are to this day. Uncountable books have been published and dedicated to them and their lives and careers of being true artist. Their art has changed the way people view things and the world around them.

The “human form” has changed through art over long periods of time and how each civilization uses their own style to create these pieces is how art gets its depth. I'm going to be talking about one of each sculpture from every major period and explain how each one has its own flavor and own unique style. I will be talking about the Prehistoric period, Egyptian style, Greek style and Roman styles. I also have a list of vocabulary words i will be pointing out in bold to explain how these are used in sculptures.

The element of art being most emphasized is color. There is a contrast in the artwork in the negative, The wall has cool and high key tones which contrast with the Egyptians and food that has warm and neutral colors. Although the artwork is not symmetrical, the light green color shown in the small details such as the carvings on the wall, necklaces, and food contribute a balance of colors within the artwork. In the artwork, there is a variation of curved lines and shapes that also bring the piece together. For examples, the lines are curvacious on the elbows, shoulders, and necklaces of the Egyptians and the objects around them. There are rhythm and pattern shown through the lines and shapes because most of the art piece has a bulbous form like the rounding of the shoulders or the circular shape of the heads. The art piece also seems to be scratchy because of the chips in the stone and the edges of the stone have faded limestone. The two men sitting and facing each other have a contrast of color to the rest of the art piece making them emerge into a more noticeable figure than the rest.

I say this because I said that Picasso’s had the woman making the girl big. In Velazquez’s the girl has the women also making her the center point. She couldn’t be though if the she didn’t have the women helping her and “making” her. I say this because she looks like she has a lot of things going on just sitting down and she couldn’t do everything by herself so to look good she needs the helpers or women. This is why I think that these two paintings look similar in this topic and also could look different.Contrasting:The second thing that I think is different about these two paintings is that the girl in Picasso’s painting is living in poverty and she looks pretty when she is cleaned up. In Velazquez’s the girl is living a lush life and has servants doing her work and she is just a young girl. The reason I say this is because since Velazquez was the king’s painter he only painted things that looked expensive for the king and his family to see. In Picasso’s case he was just a really good painter and he painted things that everybody who had practically nothing could

For the second art encounter I visited the Museum of Art at BYU and viewed the Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso print exhibit.There were several other modernist artist on display in the exhibit, such as Lichtenstein and Kalloeitz, however Warhol and Picasso were the artist that are most talked about in this course. Both of these artist are considered to be modernist, however their works look very different. Andy Warhol’s iconic Marilyn Monroe print was on display showing the industrial, pop side of modernist art. Warhol’s art imitates the negative social norms of the time. His lowd use of neon color and choice of subject add to the growing popularity of veneration of celebrities. He also was one of the first artist to mass produce his art, adding

Ever wonder what opposition to cultural trends can lead someone? Ever question what kind of success can erupt from dislocating and distorting one’s work into a brand unique to no one but yourself? Pablo Picasso and Zaha Hadid were two of the most successful artists within the modernist movement. Both Picasso and Hadid laid the foundation to their success with a strong educational background. While each artist knew that their sheer talent and works would not contribute to their succession alone. Picasso and Hadid sought the importance of defining one’s brand on a global scale. Building a connection between a consumer and their product, both Picasso and Hadid knew that their talent and business practices would allow them to convey

Every artist has his or her own style of painting. Each painting tells some sort of story or has some type of personal meaning to the artist. One of the most important figures in modern art is Pablo Picasso. Not only was Pablo Picasso a genius in the field of abstract art, but he also experimented with sculpting and ceramics. Pablo Picasso has taken the world to many places with his unique style of work which is why I believe he is considered to be a genius of the 20th century.

Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gough and Georgia O'Keeffe are all famous for their eloquent works of art. Although, I am no Picasso I do enjoy painting. When I was younger, you could often find me hanging out in the kitchen with my Nana (I am not allowed to call her grandma- long story). My eyes would get lost in the smooth color as we swirled the different colors together. Painting became sort of my Nana and I's special thing. As I grew visiting my Nana became less and less often along with creating my paintings.

On of the greatest artist in the entire existence of man, in my opinion, in Pablo Picasso. His work is recognized throughout the world, where these works are on display in some of the most visited museums in the world, where millions of people visit annually. The works are of art so sought out, that people spend millions of their money to get them for themselves. Picasso lived for almost 100 years, and in that time created tens of thousands of different works of art. He and Georges Braque are the creators of cubism, which was a completely different type of art for its time.

During the Renaissance period of history, religious icons were a popular theme. Often churches and other religious organizations would pay artists to recreate famous scenes from the Bible which could then be hung in private homes are in churches and cathedrals. Many paintings were done on the very walls of the church, painted into the plaster in a style known as fresco. Religious paintings were also frequently purchased for the home by wealthy patrons. Each artistic work was used to tell a different story and presented in a way which would reflect the ideas and opinions of the church and the surrounding community. Two paintings from the period, the Mèrode Altarpiece by Campin and the Holy Trinity by Masaccio, are both religious works which have a similar purpose, and can be compared by their specific time period and content, the artist who created the pieces and their intentions, and the techniques which were used in creating it.

Velazquez and Picasso made two similar painting’s, both named las meninas. Both of the painting’s represent a princess being helped by her maids or helpers. While Picasso’s was very abstract, Velazquez's was very realistic. While Picasso’s painting focused more on the princess, Velazquez’s painting focused more on the maids/helpers.

ZOOM Velazquez and Picasso painted many of the same things. They have similarities as Picasso’s are simply new renditions of the original ones that were made by Velazquez. They also have differences because Picasso had a very different art style from Velazquez. They had many paintings that were remade by picasso years after to bring back the art of Velazquez the royal painter. That was just kind of Picasso’s style.

     This paper will compare the themes found in the paintings “Madonna and Child with St. John the Baptist and an Angel” by Domenico di Bartolomeo Ubaldini (Puligo) and “Madonna Enthroned” by Giotto. Both paintings deal with fables from the Christian faith but were executed during different periods in art. The Giotto painting was created around 1310 and the Puglio painting was executed between 1518 – 1520. Here, these two paintings have similar themes both at the extreme beginnings and endings of the Italian Renaissance, and as such they serve to present an exceptional example of the developments in art that occurred within that time. This paper shall compare
