Chapter five of Crispin Sartwell’s ‘Six Names of Beauty’ discuss the Japanese aesthetic of Wabi-sabi. Sartwell begins the chapter by describing a harmonica that he started playing at the age of fourteen. During the recount, which included a detailed description of an old CD, Sartwell shows an evident appreciation for the aged item and it’s imperfection. “The damage on its surface—its crackles and skips—traces my intense relation to it, and gives it a kind of old-time-sounding authenticity.” His description

participate in abstract notion of aesthetic judgment—or an analysis of what the individual deems to be beautiful based off of differing factors, though initially based off of physical attributes. On a psychological level, this aesthetic viewpoint is a reflection of the relative perspective of people and circumstances in which they consider what is “attractive” or “repulsive”, and apply how it is universally understood-- beauty attracts while ugliness repels. Aesthetic judgment can be utilized as a mechanism

The Aesthetics of the Sublime in Abstract Expressionism 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.

director Peter Jackson implements a number of film aesthetics to enhance the experience a viewer has while taking in the film. Three major aesthetics I picked out were that of the use of 48 frames per second, the movie’s score, and the use of color in the film.

One of the most talked about Aesthetic choices for the Hobbit was director Peter Jackson’s

Aesthetic Representation The relationship with my patient was built upon communication. As my patient didn’t speak much English, I was able to speak to him throughout clinical in Spanish. The Spanish language was an imperative aspect of our relationship, being able to speak in this language allowed my patient to freely talk to me without difficulty. Our relationship was like a book, as each time I spoke with him about something new, I would be turning to a new page with a different passage being

In Film Aesthetics I have watched many fantastic films such as Moonrise Kingdom, Touch of Evil, Stranger Than Fiction, and many enjoyable movies to watch. All the movies I have watched have fabulous scenes which have captured my attention, Opening scene for Touch of Evil by Orson Orwell really caught my attention.

Part One: Visual Aesthetics Essay The work of art I chose is a sculpture by Antonio Raggi which is located in the church of Santi Domenico e Sisto, in Rome. I think it gives meaning to the story by giving you a physical work that expresses all of the thoughts and emotions the characters are feeling.

To have an aesthetic experience there are two criteria that need to be met. The first is paying close attention to intrinsic features. The second is that the object we focus on must be viewed as worthy of our attention. An example from the book of an object being viewed as valuable is on page 58.

As they get older they begin to see what is held at a higher value in society (p.58).

V. Religion and Aesthetics In Honduras, Christianity is the prevalent religion. 97% of the population is Roman Catholic and 3% are Protestants. This widespread of Christianity traces its roots back to the early sixteenth century when the Spanish invaded Honduras. Folk dances and modern dances are enjoyed by Hondurans. The sique and mascaro are the two main types of folk dances in Honduras (Painter, 2016). VI. Living Conditions Rural conditions are vastly different from those who live in the city
