Before Kadi became aware of the social restrictions being placed on the working class, she couldn’t connect her aunt’s activities to art or culture because she had been indoctrinated with…

For my paper I have chosen to talk about and critique Edvard Munch's The Scream. This particular piece of art was created by using a piece of cardboard and applying tempera as well as casein ("Munch, Edvard."). This painting is believed to be painted in the year 1893 ("Munch, Edvard."). Edvard Munch was born in the year of 1863 and died in the year of 1944 (Edvard Munch Biography.).

Despite his simple way of viewing, Viola has lived a colorful life; he worked some interesting jobs such as a video technician, a technical director in Florence, and even worked odds…

Mike Kelley, considered one of the most inspirational American artist of our time, with his contemporary, messy, and unusual mash-ups of thrift shop media. Kelley's art occasionally opposed the usual art world value. In his highly recognized piece More Love Hours than Can Ever Be Repaid (1987), Kelley stitched together stuffed animals and blankets purchased at a thrift shop on a canvas, to portray the symbolism that a toy, once a loving gift from a parent to a child, is now damaged and unwanted…
The prime time of these prints was from 1800 to 1860. Nagasaki-e were made for and bought by Japanese who had hardly ever a chance to see one of the red-haired, foreign 'barbarians' in their lifetime. Richard Illing in his book The Art of Japanese Prints suggests that the Nagasaki-e industry, which flourished from 1800 to 1860, was something of a sideline for the artists the Japanese government employed in Nagasaki to copy western images brought to Japan by foreigners. As the prints…
