Relationship Between Personal And Shared Knowledge

This challenge and the experiences taught me the importance of self-knowledge and the immense role it plays in understanding and improving yourself. Learning about yourself puts you in a better position to control yourself and your life. Self-knowledge is an integral part of coping with difficult situations and provides an arduously earned reward to help you become better for the

I was fortuned to have had parents who had a respect for all kinds of art and approached life with an open mind. Thus being furthered blessed to grow up near a metropolis which possesses a major art museum and galleries showcasing new talent, filling young eyes with wonderment. An art appreciation study early own in life would have been beneficial but alas, I burn with shame as one who falls in the class of “I know what I like” when asked about art. I am all agog for semester’s end to be better equipped to articulate on why I am moved by a particular piece. After listening to the first week lecture and reading the first two chapters of the course text, it was difficult to narrow the subject of my essay to one subject. But, Chapter Ones quotes

Since the beginning of time, artists have labored extensively to find innovative ways to convey sentiment, passion, and feeling. Telling stories and trying to unlock the minds of people through different avenues of artistic labors. Art touches and affects people in unique ways; it can have special or unusual meaning on the person depending on how one views it. Artists’ rendering of their art is interpreted in numerous ways by others who view it unless it is explained by the artist on its meaning giving a clear example of what they are portraying. Two people looking at the same painting, sculpture, portrait, or photo may come to different views on the arts meaning even though they are looking

n reflecting on this week’s readings, I can see the connection between the previous readings on the Harlem Renaissance and the one on Abstract Expressionism, especially as it relates to art being used for social change. Just as our society was moving at a fast pace, so was our art. Looking back, it’s amazing to see how racism, women’s rights and war brought on so many different attitudes and the art of the 20th century represented these different ideas. As it relates to war, many people were concerned about the dangers of democracy, while others emphasized patriotism. In either case, you can see a split between people’s perceptions and beliefs. It’s clear that most of the artist of the 20th century that we discussed were always on the cutting edge toward cultural change. Their shocking and innovative techniques reflected the changing values that represented a forever changing society; and often times their art helped shaped our culture, and at the same time, reflected that culture back on to us. From all the different art movements discussed during this course, this week’s readings represents the changing role they art is beginning to play in the political area. I believe that art plays a vital role in democracy, by creating openness and the freedom of expression. It’s amazing how art, be that it through a painting, literature, sculpting or through music can bring about change. Art really makes an impact on our culture and society, from instilling values or by changing opinions. It seems at the heart of every major change throughout our history, you will find an artist that created that change through his or her works. We form our ideas by seeing,

Art has evolved and regenerated itself many times during our human existence. These differences are defined through changes in styles under various theories. During the nineteenth and early twentieth century, a style known as Expressionism became popular. During this movement the artists were trying to use their artwork as a tool of expression toward life. It was mainly dominant in the nonrepresentational arts, such as abstract visual arts and music. It also was probably one of the most difficult movements to understand because the whole point of the piece lay within the artist. Not only was it a movement, it defined the act of art as a whole. From the beginning of time, each work of art, excluding replicas, show a way of expressing

Personal Knowledge: This concerns being self-aware, it does not emanate from books, journals, lectures or conferences it refers to the fact that “w e know more than we say” (Polyani 1966) or “understanding without rationale” (Benner and Tanner 1987). Itr can be as valid as scientific knowledge and nurses can

The prescribed title displays a wide range of ideas that the areas of knowledge are being used to give knowledge as the ways of knowing and used to build and/or create the areas of knowledge. Both ways of knowing and areas of knowledge intertwine with their own concepts and perspectives, like a Susquehanna Tree that needs its branches and roots in order to have a strong trunk. The Arts, for example, as an area of knowledge, uses a network of at least six ways of knowing, such as memory, sense perception, intuition, imagination, faith, and emotion. Artists create and produce whatever is influencing them, like most famous artists, they are influenced by events that happened in their lives, which made them feel a

Art has been a recurring part of history from the very beginning. As society changes so does the style of art. Each new style is known as a movement and one of the most prominent, long-lasting movements in recent centuries is known as Modernism. Modernism is characterized by its deviation from tradition. People who are a part of this movement found enjoyment in finding new mediums to use, creating art that revolves around feelings and emotions rather than reality. Abstract idealisms of modernism cause its viewers to need to think more critically about the art before them. In past movements, the meaning of the work was obvious as it was created to mimic reality.

At an early age, my talent and passion for art was recognized; in kindergarten I was my teachers ‘little artist’. In second grade, I had composed into words what I liked about making art: I liked creation, making something out of nothing. As I matured I divided art into two categories: an escape, and a form of intelligence. As an escape is for the enjoyment or what an artist will get out of it, whether it be, growth or a form of therapy. This escape allows people to express their individuality, their message and allows an audience to experience their art. I think art is a form of intelligence because it takes knowledge and the acquired ability to take thoughts into creation. I make art because it is an escape for me and I get to show my audience my views on social issues.

In today’s world, art carries a huge role in our lives as it surrounds us. It forces us to think critically and in different ways based on what’s in front of us, such as shocking, fascinating, and impressing our minds. It’s just a simple way of displaying color and style in order to force us to try and figure out what their message is. Art is not only about showing self-expression, but it also helps bring a population of people closer and promotes team building skills, such as building up long lasting relationships. It encourages people to contribute to the world so they can be remembered for doing something big. It is also a powerful way to communicate with others. If you were to travel to a whole different place where you didn’t understand

My passion for art developed in secondary school when enrolling in Art and Design I enjoyed learning new techniques and ways to draw. I was quickly interested in the course and began to improve through practice which gave me the confidence boost to explore alternative styles and mediums. I wanted to learn more about the course and took it upon myself to do extensive research to gain the best tips for producing outcomes. I began watching, reading, and listening to great artists to understand: the context of their work, what inspired the artist, their ways of conveying meanings and moods, their various techniques and how they develop ideas. I began to act upon what I learnt and use this a guideline for brainstorming ideas to ensure my concept is strong. I did this for my most recent art project looking at the way films use different colours and light to convey moods in Shawshank Redemption. I really became engaged with research exploring different methods to convey the emotion throughout the film using colour and light resulting in a well-prepared outcome.

Shared knowledge is knowledge that is deemed to be universally accepted and thus has the reliability to be shared in means such as disciplines taught in school whereas Personal knowledge is often built through ones feelings, emotions, perspectives and opinions, as well as how an individual would interpret the world around them, through their senses, and often is not shared, due to its subjectivity and lack of reliability following suit.

Abstract Expressionism is making its comeback within the art world. Coined as an artist movement in the 1940’s and 1950’s, at the New York School, American Abstract Expressionist began to express many ideas relevant to humanity and the world around human civilization. However, the subject matters, contributing to artists, were not meant to represent the ever-changing world around them. Rather, how the world around them affected the artist themselves. The works swayed by such worldly influences, become an important article within the artists’ pieces. Subjectively, looking inward to express the artist psyche, artists within the Abstract Expressionism movement became a part of their paintings. Making the paintings more of a representation

In order to carry out that purpose, he merged art perspective into evaluation and first brought up the original idea of arts-based research. What distinguishes arts-based research from other approaches is that it utilizes aesthetic qualities to demonstrate the situation and experience besides quantitative method (Donoghue, 2009). In the meantime, art can help to enhance the understanding of particular situation with various perspectives.

Knowledge is defined to be facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education. There are two categories that fall under knowledge; personal knowledge and shared knowledge. Shared knowledge refers to what “we know because.” It can also be defined as communicated and constructed knowledge; within culture, social norms, and semiotics. Personal knowledge refers to “I know because.” An expanded definition of personal knowledge refers to personal experiences, values, and perceptions. Shared knowledge changes and evolves over time because of methods that are continuously shared. It is assembled by a group of people. Personal knowledge, on the other hand, depends crucially on the experiences of a particular individual. It is gained
