Dina Mitrani Art Analysis

Improved Essays
On Sunday November 26th, I attended the Dina Mitrani art gallery located in Wynwood. I looked around and took many pictures during my visit. Overall, it was filled with beautiful artworks and it was a very positive experience for me. It was exactly what I expected it to be. During my visit, I came across an artwork that completely blew me away. It was a huge American flag made out of cooked, dried, rice. It was unbelievable how amazing and detailed it look. It had the three colors, red, blue and white and the lines in the flag were evenly proportioned. This was my favorite artwork during my visit because it was unique, and like no other. This artwork did not have a name displayed around it but whoever made this is extremely creative. To me this artwork shows how proud the artist probably is about being an American or maybe just how much this artist likes America or how inspired he or she is about it. It got me to think how I myself, am proud of being an American and how many opportunities we can be given. America is the place where you get to have freedom, the best cheeseburgers, the best life can be provided, you can create any future you want for yourself and many more great things can happen in America. This artwork really made me realize how great America is. …show more content…
This one did not have a name nor description as well. It was a big painting with many different colors and things going on. It had a pair of eyes peeking through all the things in the artwork. It had splashes of different colors, and a bunch of flowers with an eyeball in the middle. It also had a bird, and a dog in the artwork which I did not understand why. Moreover, I did not understand what this artwork was trying to tell nor why it had so many things going on. It had so much detail that I was not able to focus on the artwork

    He uses clothing, mattress coils, chicken wire, enamel, found metal, wire, spray paint, and can lids to form a ragged, textured image of the flag. Similar to many African-American artists, he uses imagery of the American flag as a theme in his work. To me, the distressed appearance of the flag represents American history, particularly Black history, which is characterized by violence, systematic discrimination, and struggle. Therefore, the flag becomes a representation of America's history of segregation and intolerance. However, despite our nation’s violent and dark history, the flag serves to unite…

    Elements of pathos in this image include the use of large text, irony and a color scheme that any American would recognize and associate with. The color scheme and the image of the world in a pair of hands plays a major role in the effectiveness of the visual argument. The image with the world in a pair of hands makes the audience feel a sense of obligation to partake in the abolition of modern slavery. The use of the text “Land of the Free...and the Home of the Slaves” is a play on words. Furthermore, the use of the American flag in the center of the world that is in black and white labels America as the protector of the earth but we are not in fact doing our job. Finally, the distinct blue line along with the white and red text brings a sense of patriotism.…

    What the American Flag Means to me Everytime I see an american flag I can’t help but think about how great our country is. After all, flags are all about representation. A synonym for flag is banner, and all the ones that are not for decoration are emblems. The flag that I see the most is the american flag, and when I look at the colors of the United States flag every morning when we say the pledge of allegiance at school, I think about about the republic that it stands for as well as the liberty and justice that we have.…

    Looking at the multiple pieces of art suggested to us, none of them spoke to me like this particular piece did. When walking into Gallery 219, the room set the mood of seriousness, and was lit well enough to view the multiple art pieces in the room. There are no sounds, but the sounds I created when I walked on the wooden floors that creaked when I went to view the art piece I desired. From a distance, it looked like a blob of black with multiple shapes contained in a transparent box on a pedestal, but when finally reaching the art sculpture, I felt this sense of connection. The hairs of my body stood up, and suddenly I became stunned at what I saw.…

    Minimalist Art Analysis

    • 4 Pages

    Absurdity is key to this exhibition and bringing some humour or levity to minimalist art which otherwise is too often seen as confrontational, anti-humanist, emotionless and intellectually cold. Minimalism may hide its humour behind imposing machine-made structures or recontextualized ready made industrialized forms, but curator John Hampton attempts to show a lighter side of minimalism, he attempts to show us that it is inherently absurd that we take it so seriously. Upon entering the space, even before we ascend the stairs we are met with a cartoonish cacophony of bird like sounds which immediately engages the listener in a light-hearted welcome. At the top of the stairs, we are met with Jon Sasaki’s Slab, Base for a Future Monument, 2014,…

This museum is called the de Young Museum, where fine arts from all over the world including Canada are there. One of the things I loved about the museum was that architecture of the building and the small structures around the main building.
