Visually, the Lady’s Writing Table and Chair is breathtaking. Ebony, mahogany, boxwood redwood, and thuya wood make up the various colored wooden panels for which the frame of the desk and chair are constructed. The shape of set is quite unusual in the fact that there are no hard edges. Every corner is curved and sides of the desk fluctuate inwards and outwards like an ocean wave. This use of concave and convex shapes is inspired by 18th century French Rococo in which artists would try to emulate a sense of lightness and elegance through their furniture and art pieces. Rococo influence is also present in the “C” and “S” shape curvature seen in the legs of the desk and the back of the chair. Furthermore, the organic shapes utilized in Art Nouveau and

This essay will compare and contrast the work of two sculptors who use the human form as a basis of their artwork. The first sculpture “Apollo and Daphne” by Gian Lorenzo Bernini was created in 1622 and portrays a Romanian story. Where as “Two Women” by Ron Mueck is a hyper realistic sculpture made by an Australian contemporary artist.

Having a twin makes it harder for me to understand who I am. Everyone tells us how we need to find ourselves and the individual person that we are. But it is inevitable trying to escape from the label of “ The Palacios Twins,” when constantly every aspect between us two is compared as they expect us to look and act exactly alike. There is no person that I have spent more time with. I don’t think I’ve been away from her for longer than a week since we were born. She is the only person who truly understands me. She has always been there to suffer along side me. Being a twin provided me a lot of laughs and strong support. What will I do without her!? I do not know nor want to imagine it. The question has crossed my mind numerous of

Roberto Matta was an artist who employed the style of surrealism. He was born in Santiago, Chile in 1911, where he spent his adolescent years. Matta attended a Jesuit university where he studied architecture and interior design. After graduating from the program in 1935 he fed his need to experience other cultures by embarking on an expedition that encompassed many countries and continents. He first stayed only in Central and South America, but soon decided that he wanted to go further ("Matta: Making the Invisible Visible"). He then became a part of the Merchant Marines, which enabled him to expand his horizons. Although he had a passion and a background of architecture, he also loved to sketch what he saw as he travelled, especially landscapes and cityscapes. From the beginning of his time as an artist, he drew and painted almost exclusively abstract works. While in Europe, he finished his term in the Merchant Marines and remained in Paris working as an architect under a modernist architect known as Le Corbusier. While in Paris, Matta became acquainted with the works of Salvador Dali and Rene Margaritte ("Roberto Matta - Biography"). Amongst others these two artists were key sources of inspiration for the former half of his life’s work. When Matta began his artistic career, he used mostly crayons and pastels. His work became recognized and he was formally asked to join the Surrealist Movement by André Breton in 1937.

He knew he would accept the offer, they knew he would accept their offer. The details would all be worked out so that his death could be easily explained, even if the emotional aspect would be hard.

Jean Prouvé designed an office chair. The office chair had “a profiled bent steel rear frame into who were fitted and welded the bent tubing of front legs. Flattened tubing armrest girdled the rear frame and were welded to it.” (301, Pairs) The chair had padding to add extra comfort. This chair was given to CPDE by Prouvé. A few hundred of the chairs were made, but as time went on there were no other series produce. Although this chair was very popular the chair was replaced after the war. It was replaced with the Bridge, and then that was later replace by the Direction

“Patterns Past & Present: Arts of Panama” has educated me on the history behind molas. In the fourth grade, my art teacher introduced the class to molas and assigned us to create mola-inspired artwork out of construction paper. This introduction at a young age left my mind to be receptive to art that may not necessarily be what I see every day as well as learn more about who made it. There is much to learn behind the work of

have chosen the photo base on an artist John Ahearn and Rigoberto Torres for this assignment of self-portrait project. I will discuss about their life and their art work. John Ahearn was born in 1951 at Binghamton, New York. In 1980, he moved to the South Bronx of New York and began to work in collaboration with artist Rigoberto Torres. Rigoberto Torres had learned the art of plastic casting from his uncle, who had cast plaster statues for churches and cemeteries. In 1990s, they worked together in the 100th Street Sculpture Project, a GSA commission in Baltimore, and a public project in Caguas. He often describes himself like an itinerant portrait painter, and sometimes as like Raul, who manufactures plaster santeros for the Bronx botanicas,

Who or what does this object represent? I think this object represents middle class people. Often the middle class is overlooked and are considered “average.” This chair is overlooked too because it is a piece of furniture that almost everyone has, and we don’t often think about how the chair got there or how the chair was made. I think this is similar with a lot of people in the world. Many people go unnoticed. I hope that by adding color to this old chair, will be like the colorful personalities many people have, which makes them stand out above others.

The brothers have been awarded and/or nominated quite some times for their works of art. For example, some of their sculptures were featured in the YBA showcase exhibitions Brilliant! and Sensation. The two were also nominated for the Turner Prize for their Death, but they eventually lost to Grayson Perry. One of their paintings, One Day You Will No Longer Be Loved III was also the subject of Derren Brown’s Channel 4 special The Great Art Robbery.
