The Fruit And The Compute

The artist used an array of colors in the painting to portray his idea. He used different values of colors to show the objects that are getting direct sunlight and those that are shaded. The trees that are in the sunlight have a lighter value of brown on their trunks and a lighter value of green on their leaves, while the trees that are in the shade have darker brown trunks and darker green leaves. The dirt road is a tan color with spots of darker brown to show where the shade lies from the trees. You can tell that the horses and wagons are in the sun because they have a lighter value of color and the artist used a darker

The painting by Georgia O’Keeffe, Pedernal, was a landscape depicting a desert area with mountains in the background. The ground is a light brown over all with smaller areas of lighter still tan as well as somewhat darker areas streaked through the dirt.in the front of the picture, there are a few small plants grouped up on the right side with various shades of green, as well as a taller one in the center of the picture. The plants add a luscious look to the painting and contradict nicely with the desert dirt. Behind those fewer plants are more plants in a larger number, as well more colors. These plants are a beautiful variety of red, yellow, and green in what looks like a small valley. There are so many plants there that the dirt is actually

Strange Fruit is extremely valuable today and especially in the 1930’s. The 1930’s was a rough time for society. No one should have to live through the deaths of innocent humans but unfortunately that happened in the past and still happens today in different forms. Strange Fruit was the first controversial song that ever spoke out about the cruelty of the lynching of African Americans. It gained attention throughout the years of Holiday performing it, which gives it tremendous value. The sadness and disturbing imagery portrayed in the song, gave it a positive effect considering it gained support towards the Civil Rights Movement. The song sends out a clear message in an unusual way. Painting a disturbing picture into the listener’s mind through words makes the person perceive the message to be to end lynching. “Strange fruit hanging from the poplar tree” (line 4). The strange fruit is a black person being hanged from the tree. That is a deep message that was made to get into everyone’s head to push for a change in the unfair society.

The Harvester Vase has a solid and strong composition. The composition gives rhythm to the piece. The piece comes alive through all the movement shown throughout the piece. This piece is done in a naturalistic way. The figures in the piece have life-like features and their clothes match the clothes of the present time. The way the figures’ muscles are expressed are very life-like and natural. The detail of the work is unbelievable, especially given that the vase has a diameter of about five inches. The Harvester Vase is a portrayal of the human body, emotions, and expressions. The distribution of the vase shows stylistic uniformity.

There are different scenes of this portrait that van Eyck’s uses throughout to identify social standards of the time this piece was done. The fruit is there to identify the intimacy of marriage. The dog and gargoyles also represent various implications of religiosities. Going in enormous detail of what everything means. The gargoyles are there to display deceptiveness in the marriage of the couple’s nature as well as being somewhat

Apple Harvest is a painting created by a French artist named Camille Pissarro in 1888. The artwork is derived from the European culture focusing on the style of neo-impressionism or pointillism. The painting is made with the use of oil on canvas and currently located inside the Dallas Museum of Art in second floor in the section of European art. It depicts a lively image of farmers engaging in their daily activities where they are picking apples on a sunny day. The background of the landscape consists of a huge ranch with additional apple trees that gives a vibration of harvesting season. Similarly, it is a form of a representational artwork portraying physical labor by the farmers during that period. Camille Pissarro seemed to support the farmers of low social status and believed in hard work as some of his artworks are the representations of lives of these social groups (Dallas Museum of Art 2017). In the painting “Apple Harvest”, he tries to picture working peasants in an apple farm in the French Countryside (Dallas Museum of Art 2017). This paper is an integration of the analysis of formal elements and principles relevant to the art work “Apple Harvest” and my experience of observation of this piece of art at the Dallas Museum of Art including a reflection upon the visit.

The art and beauty in this painting is exemplified through the eyes of Boucher. It starts with a beautiful couple taking a rest after picking up some followers. Their clothing looks very elegant and colorful which shows that they are aristocrats. The man’s eyes are gazing at a shepherdess who gathered her own flowers. Their eyes are locked despite the man having his own woman right in front of him. The light brushstrokes of the dresses, flowers, and trees

His early paintings had an unconventional, unique, and unfinished look about them. The images were known to everyone in everyday life.

In addition, the artist is talking more about the modern problem, which is the most importance topic that people are worry about. As today’s world, we can hear many topic that relate to the environment, people are more willing to discussing the problem that are effect their life. With that being said, I think the artist did successful with his art, because it is the theme that people are anxious about. Moreover, I do believed that artist bring many interesting point into his artwork, he makes people see the real life item instead of “death” item. When people enter his building, they may see how the mosses growing, and they may have chance to see another fungi that rely on the tree’s surface. These will bring the interest to audience in any ages. People are more willing to see those items that will makes them interesting. Also, I think the artist did achieve the goal he stated for his art. He brings the part of environment to his showroom, and it fall people obsessed, and their sensibilities, and it may also change people’s opinion about the art in the better

In the artwork, the picture illustrates a man raising his arms up sacrificing his life for what he knew was right for him and society. Neighbors were looking around and saw what he was doing to himself. The picture also shows that once he reached his goal everything

Salcedo created this piece to show that there is a divider that distinguishes one group from those who do not “belong”. The cracks cause the viewer to twist and contort their bodies in ways that causes them to change their perspective. Although we are all human, we are divided. Unlike, Salcedo, Ai WeiWei commentates on economic and political injustice through his installation of 100 million handmade sunflower seeds known simply as “Kui Hua Zi”. WeiWei was heavily involved in activism despite China’s oppressive government. He wasn’t afraid to express his opinions, he simply wanted to get his message out to the world. In this case, the sunflower seeds were symbols of friendship as well as trust held between those who spent a lot of time together. They represented the people of China, more specifically, the followers. WeiWei recalled, “....even the poorest in China would share sunflower seeds as a treat among friends.” This project was a way to bring the community together and shows that despite the injustice that surrounds them on a daily basis they all have each other. Just as Ai WeiWei used an object familiar to many, Michel Tuffery created a sculpture of a cow

The main protagonist of this painting is the goddess-like figure in the middle. She represents Lady Liberty, a figure who is a symbol of knowledge and enlightenment. According to George Crofutt, the commissioner for “American Progress”, she is carrying “a school book, testimonial of the National Enlightenment”, further proving that she is the symbol of enlightenment. With her, she drags a telephone wire, which Crofutt claims “will bind the nation.” By using the term “bind”, this statement has two completely different connotations. The one Crofutt intended for his use was that the nation would be unified and connected to one another. It symbolizes the new technological developments

The man carrying the basket is what I believe to represent him. The ribbon seems to be tying him to what many people want him to believe is symbolized by the basket. The flowers represents those who are against him and want him to think a certain way. The woman in the background represent his personal beliefs. That help him stand despite what everyone else wants him to think or create in his art.

Q9-2: What is the message? For Jan de Heem means at least in part a celebration, an invitation to share, at least visually and thus imaginatively, in its world. The feast on the table was a feast for the eyes. How is it portrayed symbolically in the piece and the vocabulary term used for this kind of painting. This painting is an example of Vanitas. The vanitas tradition of still life painting is specifically designed to induce in the spectator a higher order of thought. This is a reminding the viewer of the frivolous quality or vanity of human existence. It’s a still life painting with the enjoyment of the pleasurable things in life. The overturned goblet, the half peeled lemon, the oyster on the half-shell, the timepiece beside it , all remind the viewer that the material is celebrated in the painting in long lasting as the spiritual and may be greater importance than material wealth. The artwork is of a huge meal, most that has been left uneaten. Southern fruit in a cold climate is of luxury and the peeled lemon is untouched. Was a sign of unwanted consumption in the artwork.

The Son of Man is a self-portrait. The painting represents a man in black coat pant with white shirt and a bowler had on his head. He is standing in the front of a short wall. The background shows sea and above it, there is sky with dark gray clouds. The surprising thing in the painting is that the person’s face is covered with a green color apple. The man's eyes can be seen looking over the edge of the apple. His left arm is bend to backward. The artist explains that the painting shows the human curiosity to see the things. The person always wants to see the hidden part. There is always an interest to see what is hidden and what the visible thing is hiding behind but then one is often angry with this interest. This painting brings that frustration or angriness in this painting by putting the person’s face behind the green apple. The argument between the observable that is available and the noticeable that is covered up.
