Painting, Violet Persian Set With Red Lip Wraps By Dale Chihuly And Nefertiti By Wendall Castle

In Neri’s painting, Mujer Pegada Series No. 2, uses different art elements that makes the eye wonder. Beside the sculpture he tries to emphasize the flatness by using contour lines to give illusion to the body beside the sculpture. The shape of the head gives a sense of negative space with the shadow because it gives the sculpture more of an illusion of volume. The temperature of this painting is warm, since it used analogous colors such as orange, little bit of yellow and different types of nudes. The bronze sculpture adds a warm feeling as well. As for actual texture of the sculpture it is smooth on one thigh and rough on the rest of its body. The balance of the art work relies on the actual sculpture to the illusion beside it. It is rather

In this paper I will evaluate two artworks that share the same theme “Humanism and Beauty. The two artworks that I have chosen are The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli and the poem “Stanze per la Giostra” by Angelo Polizanio. The Birth of Venus was created during the Renaissance sometime in the 1480’s. The painting is currently located in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence Italy. The poem “Stanze per la Giostra” by Angelo Polizanio was written around 1470 and was also created during the Renaissance period. These two works of art were created to represent the birth of Venus. Both pieces depict the culture’s view about the natural beauty of women during the Renaissance period. In this paper, I will discuss what our society seems to think beautiful

Hosmer’s work was very much underappreciated during her time of work. Most critiques and reviews of her work could not get past the issue of her gender, and said things akin to “This sculpture is amazing for a woman, but just okay for a man’s work.” They appreciated her work, but not as fully as they could have as it directly challenged many traditionally held views.

Alessandra Sulpy had an exhibition of collective works categorized under the “Non-memories of the Deuce” and “Bland Intruders”. Her works revealed symbolic references to the idea of a female icon, representations of the past and present; while incorporating urban/pop culture and high contrast within each piece.

Her exhibit is organized by Iria Candela, Estrellita B. Brodsky Curator of Latin American Art in the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art at The Met Breuer. Her exhibit was created mostly on the grounds of the Daniel and Estrellita Brodsky Foundation and the Garcia Family Foundation. Many of her creation were done at the time she was living Brazil for a long time. Her creations are brought from the Brazilian culture all the way back to America, especially in the 1990s. Her work wasn’t just in forms of paint, but also in forms of sculptures, print, performance, installation and

The naturalism of the sculpture is also emphasized by these features; she actually looks like an older woman. There

The sculptures “Apollo and Daphne” and “Two Women” share elements and principles with one another, such as shape, size and texture. Bernini’s work is a life size piece that complements the figure of the two characters. The facial expressions, hands, feet and hair of “Apollo and Daphne” are in reasonable detail; however there are no lines on the bodies to create depth and texture. On the other hand, Mueck challenge’s the viewer by changing the scale of his work, with “Two Women” minute and in incredible proportion with the features and figure of the women.

In this unit, we have learned different modern art styles such as Post-impressionism, Cubism and Fauvism. The works created in these periods are considered to be inspired by each other but still different in the background. In this essay, three representative modern works will be compared to demonstrate their relations and differences.

We see the challenges they have faced in pushing the art world beyond the accepted and experimenting with something new. The artists have offered us a new experience, one which asks us to reflect upon their works. One that seeks us to return to our most basic thoughts, to being that “Man’s hand tracing a stick through the mud to make a line…” (Newman, 2002. p.574). To see art as a means of communication through expressive forms that contradict, and challenge, our reactions to what we see and hold as real in everyday life. To summarise, these artists have shown us the innovative journey their art has taken through the twentieth century, giving us an opportunity to establish new skills in interpreting

She focuses on these pieces of work using a few of the aesthetic properties. She describes the

But where did this ideal come from? Aristide Maillol was born in 1861 in a pink house in Banyuls-ser-Mer to a family of fisherman and vine growers. It is this home, sandwiched between the Mediterranean Sea and the Alberes mountains, where Maillol would spend his whole life, “in the old village with its labyrinth of narrow lanes, amid the green Pyrenean foothills full of vines, trees and mimosas, and beyond, the snowcapped summits in the distance.” This is the place that would shape the expressive qualities of the artist’s sculptures, as well as form his ideal conception of woman, which would be his primary subject. This isolated little village in the countryside was a location where a good decent girl would never be nude or scandalous, where conservative families survived off of both the sea and the vines. Maillol’s life in the countryside is evident in his work, including The Three Graces. He retains a “rustic ingenuousness” in his work, something calm, self-possessed—not feverish or frantic. The sculptures are simplistic and blunt, reminiscent of the simple rhythm of the lifestyle that surrounded Maillol in Banyuls—the lifestyle of farmers and fishermen reside in a tranquil mountain landscape. The bodies of these women do retain this simplicity, bluntness, and tranquility, reminiscent of the landscape by which the sculptor was continuously

The female shoes as the subject of this artwork do not have the beauty and cannot understand the truth at the first sign, but the form the art clearly indicates the representation meaning of the truth of the subject. In Adam’s views of art, “the works of art are not necessarily narrative, and they may not represent recognizable figures and objects. ” It is a three dimensional or two dimensional representations contain with style and idea that different from the nature’s creation. In her work, Shoes painted on pieces of flat fabrics that covered by a sheet of semitransparent animal skin that stitched with surgical thread and held in six different separated niches. Some niches

In the period between 14 March and 7 June 2015, the institution of the Royal Academy of Arts, based in the heart of London, takes an artistic importance even more significant than usual thanks to the organization of the exhibition dedicated to the painter Richard Diebenkorn, who works in America in the mid-twentieth century. The first thing to emphasize about this event is that, to the European audience, the name of the artist may seem unfamiliar. Indeed, his success has been mainly limited to the US context. Moreover, it is significant that this three-room show is the first opportunity for the UK audience to approach the art of Diebenkorn in more than twenty years. Thus, the exposition becomes not only an opportunity to see the works of art but also the instrument by which the visitor can take a journey through the different artistic phases that have characterized the life of the painter. Hence, while the first part of the display includes the initial experiments with abstraction, in the second Diebenkorn tries to find the way to express himself through the figurative art. In the third room, the viewer might be surprised to see that the development of the artist is actually his return to the beginning. In fact, even if differently compared to the early stage, in his later works, the creator returns to the Abstract Expressionism. Therefore, using a more geometric style given by vertical,

In addition, the majority of the paper will focus on the symbolism, form, and aesthetic of Miss Blanche and other works by Kuramata that force the attention of the viewer to be on a new identity for an object previously deemed only a chair.

Art can tell stories of the past events, which were significant to that culture or a person. Female images take a special place in the representation of the art. Women have always been used as a subject of art and displayed as ideal feminine figures and sexualized objects of desire. The notion of femininity, along with the idea of the female gender role, has substantially changed throughout the centuries. Through the several art pieces authors show how the social, political, and religious circumstances of the different art periods affect the way women were represented. Comparing the work of Johannes Vermeer and Philippe Halsman it is clearly to see how the separations of centuries and different techniques affected the vision of the women’s beauty. Although both, American actress Grace Kelly and The Milkmaid, represent femininity as the main idea, one shows a realistic expression of the beauty, the other image is the author’s perception of the same idea through the different composition settings, style, and creation time.
