Seeing David Hockney speak about his book was very interesting to me. Watching him speak about his ideas opened up my mind and made me even consider different ideas. Hockney argues that it is very possible that many artists discover the type of techniques that he does. Hockney spoke of a very interesting topic. This would generally be a subject that wouldn't brought to my attention, but this discussion made me think of things in a totally different way. I believe it is near impossile to cheat when it comes to making art. The only possible way I can decide on when it comes to cheating in art is taking credit for art that isn't yours. I consider tracing as a means to using tools and resources to yuor advantage. I dont consider tracing as cheating. As with anyone accesing tools for their work, artists shouldn't be expected to not have access to such tools. …show more content…
Artists shouldn't be defined by the way they achieve and create art. When one really thinks about it, it would be nearly impossible to create most types of art with free handing. Ultimatley, I found this topic incredibly fascinating. David Hockney touched on some very interesting points and made it very eye
“I am not a black artist, I am an artist.” Art is used to describe what people are feeling. However, you never know who that artist is and what color they are until you see them for who they are. Art is not just paint it is what people are feeling. Have you ever been judged for what color you were or how you look? Well this man was one of the first famous black artist.
I could understand art beyond others’ opinion about them. Moreover, I realized that it was a
For years and years, generations to generations, there have been hundreds of thousands of talented artists with creative minds that are constantly developing new ideas, concepts and realities. Every artists has his/her own way of portraying reality, and there are artists whose visually stunning images have changed reality in itself and opened up new ways of storytelling. Those artists for me include; Armand Serrano, Robert Kondo and Daisuke
While using many sources to compare and contrast I found that my own personal experiences proved that artist’s can be athletes and
Intrinsically intriguing as the artworks and themes are for many viewers, what lies with greater uniqueness is the visual context of art, as emphasized by Helena. Artworks, despite the era or time period, are always initially distinguished based on the surface; for example, what’s present and what’s going on. As I tour the Grohmann Museum with Helena, I was taught to look at the furthest distance in the portrait rather than the surface.
What I found to be intriguing about his art is how he takes materials that are so simple and transforms them into more than what one would imagine.
With a natural talent for art and an even more natural curiosity for learning, he managed to discover new perspectives in reference to art. His take
Hockney developed the ability to take an ordinary scene and develop it through photographs and paint into something incredibly pleasing for the viewers to appreciate. Hockney is able to develop such scenes immediately earned Hockney a place among contemporary artists of his time.
According to Fran Lebowitz,“Very few people possess true artistic ability. It is therefore both unseemly and unproductive to irritate the situation by making an effort. If you have a burning, restless urge to write or paint, simply eat something sweet and the feeling will pass”(Lebowitz ). Truly there are people who do not have any “artistic ability” and they will struggle to draw or even paints. They may even think that trying to attempt to draw is just “unproductive” but in reality if one can write their name they can do art (Lebowitz). Therefore, art can be relatable to anything in this world, either it is through the media, applied or even in careers.
The first five minutes I spent staring at the artwork, all I saw were lines, figures, and colors. Two hours pass and I started noticing details I had not seen before. Through these two artworks, I caught a glimpse into the artist 's mind and became the storyteller rather
Prestigious artists in the modern era have created highly abstract and non-representational work. The average everyday person who looks at Kandinsky, Picasso, or Duchamp may genuinely believe that they can produce better work without any art experience. But from their lack of art history they will not be able to produce work that has deep meaning like Picasso, or psychoanalysis of color theory like Kandinsky.
Although art involves imagination, not everyone has passion to create art. Art can be created through anger and frustration. I think that is the best way to create art. It can show passion to the
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.
When an artist creates a piece of work, he or she can choose whether or not to put any meaning into the finished product. Though a piece of artwork could purely be for the technical practices of the medium, that does not stop others from reflecting a greater message. The idea of being able to create artwork without fear of judgement is one to desire, but artists must also be aware that their work can affect others. I fully support the idea of being free to draw or write whatever one wants to
Unfortunately, for some artists, the reality of life isn’t so beautiful. One of the most talented, yet mentally ill artists of all time was Vincent Van Gogh. He was also from the 19th century belonging to the post-impressionists. In order for one to analyze the art of
