Landscape art

Academy of Fine Arts in 1926, and in the Museum of Modern Art in 1932. Since then, many museums have acquired Hicks’ work and consider his work to currently be the masterpieces of folk art. Folk art is an expression that came out of a craftsmanship tradition. The tradition of craftsmanship came out of the technical abilities of folk art painters. Nonetheless, this was especially true during the age of the shop-trained men of the nineteenth-century rather than by the training of art schools and…

Australian landscape artists have been in existence for over 40,000 years with the indigenous totems, symbols and portrayals. In comparison, European Australian artists have been in in early stages of their progression since colonisation, each with their own style, subject matter and connection to the land. Clarice Beckett was a tonalist from the 1910’s, her work only recently recognised. Whereas, Emily Kame Kngwarreye was an indigenous Australian artist who used lines and dots in traditional…

the design of the museum reminds me the Falling water which located in south rural area of Pennsylvania, designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Just like Glenstone, it opened to the public and as you walking into the museum and watching the landscape through the grid window, it perfectly leading me to have a dialogue with my memory that I almost lost.…

The subject matter of Precisionism celebrated the Machine-age, depicting skylines, buildings, and industrial landscapes, devoid of human activity. “Precisionism is not an art of social criticism. Precisionism is a “cool” art, keep[ing] the viewer at a distance; the artist’s attitude seems to be one of complete detachment, in which [the artist] achieves largely by smoothing out his brushstrokes, erasing, as it were…

to Pablo Picasso’s “Art is a lie” artists reveal truth through lies in their artworks. I plan to prove that his assertion is correct by using the oil painting “The Broken Column”, a Mexican artwork created by artist Frida Kahlo, in 1944. It’s a modernism style painting, a style that developed around the twentieth century. Pablo Picasso’s view of art is a creative way to define how an artist reveals the truth of his/her paintings through lies . He also states that “Through art, we express our…

Art is a Fluidity Society is constantly changing, growing, and evolving; art is a constant. Since there were cavemen, there were prehistoric cave paintings. When people began to hunt, they began to sculpt hunting weapons and tools using solely natural resources. Once religion became a part of society, art became one of the major means of expressing religious beliefs. Art is a constant because it is natural. It is something that is instilled within us all from a very young age. When we are…

painting…”(Sontag, 1), something she says we “…reflexively screen out or see past” (Sontag, 1). It seems obvious that Sontag finds these imperfections distasteful and unworthy of attention. However, this idea of ignoring an interruption of the expected landscape for the sake of enjoying the compiled beauty lacks the recognition of one hard-hitting truth: a well placed scratch can make a handsome addition to the face of an otherwise ordinary object. Sontag declares her favor for fleeting beauty,…

Marc Handelman created the artwork “Miasma” and it’s located in the Nerman Museum Contemporary Art at Johnson County Community College. The sociopolitical piece of artwork is placed on the wall on the second floor of the Museum. “Miasma” streaks of brilliant red and blue radiate from a dark center into a white field to blast the painterly colors of Old Glory. The medium of the “Miasma” was painted with oil on a canvas which the canvas is large in size so it could be noticeable to the audience…

Artistic evolution occurs throughout the Kamakura and Muromachi eras, altogether spanning from 1185 to 1550. Developing areas of art include literature, theatre, and visual arts. Both eras demonstrate interests regarding the past, Buddhist principles, and tradition but have different influences. Kamakura era literature discusses loyalism and Buddhist concepts. The era begins as war between the Taira and the Minamoto families concludes in 1185. The Tale of the Heike, a significant war…

there you would find them like fireflies in the trees. The horizon line for me is the table on which the rocks rest, the rocks are above the eye level of the viewer. 4. Content - What do you think the artist is trying to say? What Essential Elements of Art* are used to support what you think the artist is saying? Ms. Thi’ s earthwork expressed simplicity and strength. It seems like the artist in her would like to give the viewer the feelings of serenity and boldness at the same time. The…
