...Rothko chapel – NOTHINGNESS MATTER The Rothko Chapel is one of a modern of art’s object to prove how the simplicity within art objects and space, work together to send the message to the viewers. How the spatial memory, evokes emotion, sets up parameter and boundaries can govern the way people see and feel the space. Introduction The processing of visual sensation into perception of the world around us involves a complex interaction of the eye and brain. (Lawson 1999, p. 61). According to this quotation, people tend to experience the space to feel the ambient. When memories take part, it is responsible for retaining visual shapes, colors, information about locations and movement (Spatial memory n.d.). This allows one to remember where an object is related to another, recall the information about the object that also can produce their feelings about the object. There are many elements triggered by the memory that are able to evoke emotion, creates boundary and sets up parameter in perceiving the space. All circumstances evoke as an emotion for its viewers, such as happiness, awe, excitement, and fear. It justified by the situation when people are in a place which they do not like, a gallery with all blank paintings for example, they say: "this does nothing for me." I believe what they are actually saying is that the paintings did not evoke any sort of emotion in them. However, it does not mean that the paintings are bad, because it is not about the object itself but...

...The jurisdiction and venue of the case will have to be determined, since the two parties are located in different states, California and Washington. The cases discussed are from different circuits and may be persuasive depending on the decided jurisdiction of the case. Furthermore, once jurisdiction is decided Chapel may also rely on state dilution statutes. The disputed mark will most probably be eligible for a claim of dilution under 15 U.S.C §1125 as the mark is famous i.e. distinct and well known by the public. Chapel and Chapel No. 13 are famous as proven by fulfilling the statutory requirements. Both marks are federally registered, the mark Chapel has been used for a long time in the fashion industry and has established its reputation in the U.S., European and Japanese market and sells its products in high-end retail stores, whereas the mark, Chapel No. 13 has been used since 2008 both marks have priority under the statute. Also, the mark has been advertised and publicized over the past few years and Chapel has generated high revenue for its products....

...Essential Questions 1. What is artistic expression? Artistic expression is how anybody expresses themselves. It does not have to be through any specific medium. You can express yourself through drawings, songs, poems, essays, books, etc. 2. What about artistic expression is universal throughout human cultures What is universal is that you are free. No one is going to tie you down. If you are writing a song for yourself then there are no judgments. It is simply to express how you feel. That is why most people can get behind artistic expression. 3. Can you identify a particular speech, work of art or musical experience that changed how you thought about something? Please explain. This is fairly simple. I love hip-hop music. It has been the only genre of music that I have truly loved. So when Kendrick Lamar released his new album it caught me by surprise. It was mostly his raps over jazz instrumentals. It is not surprising for jazz to be on a song or two on an album, but Kendrick built his album from the ground up on jazz. Long story short I love the album and it is because of the jazz that is always playing in the background and in certain songs in the foreground. When I went to New York last year I even made my parents go to a jazz bar so I could experience it live. 4. What role does art play in local and global societies? Please give an example. Art plays a huge role in global and local societies. There are constantly art events being held across the world...

...Assignment 2.1 Analyzing the Creation of Adam by Michelangelo ART 101- Art Appreciation Robert Peterson Jones International University December 11, 2013 Abstract In this essay I will analyze the creation of Adam painted by Michelangelo for the Sistine chapel ceiling. I will use the elements of art and the principles of design to make my assessment. Elements of Art: Lines The lines in this composition are very detail, especially around the main characters. The character of the line is implied and is very active. The line of site of the characters point left to right and right to left or we follow from Adam to God and the heavenly host and from God and the heavenly host back to Adam. The Landscaping pulls the eye downward but it supports the fact that Adam is in a high place in his encounter with God. Elements of Art: Color and Light For the most part this composition’s palette is cool. The coloring is bright and soft except for the warm glow of the heavenly host and the red covering which seems to serve as a “portal” of some sort. The lighting enters from the rear of the composition except for the glow on the heavenly host whose lighting appears to emanate from God. Elements of Art: Space The space in this composition is three dimensional and close in nature. Though Adam may not be under the covering with God the space is positive. Principles of Design: Balance, Proportion and Unity ...

...Bramante and Aesthetics of High Renaissance William Kidwell ART101: Art Appreciation Instructor Venecia-Tobin September 17, 2012 Bramante and Aesthetics of High Renaissance Italian architect and painter, born. about 1444 at Monte Asdrualdo (hence, sometimes ASDRUALDINO); died. in Rome, March 11th, 1514. Nothing is known of his early youth. His early artistic development also, about which Vasari has made so many erroneous statements, is mostly a matter of conjecture. Today, however, it seems fairly certain that Laurana, the architect of the ducal palace at Urbino, showed him the way to the impressive style of the High Renaissance. Bramante's artistic activity is divided into two periods of which the first was spent in Milan and the other in Rome. His work in Milan is characterized by a pronounced picturesque, decorative style. In Rome, on the other hand, we find a style which is more proper to the High Renaissance, exemplified in works that are, as far as possible, free from all external decoration, impressive by reason of their proportions, and recalling the antique by their grandeur and power. In 1476 Bramante became the court architect of Lodovico Sforza (Il Moro), having been in Milan, as has been abundantly shown, from 1474. At first he seems to have been engaged principally as a painter, following the vigorous manner of Mantegna and Melozzo da Forlí. It is true that only scanty remains of his work at this time have been found. Such are the recently discovered...

...The Prince, written by Machiavelli, was a guide for all the rulers of his time who wanted to become major powers and to find all the solutions to their political problems. In his book, Machiavelli mentions a great amount of key points that guide rulers to the road of success. One of the key aspects that Machiavelli talks about is fate and how it effects the decisions of a ruler. The following paragraphs will discuss how human affairs are governed by fate, and how fate can be contested. During Machiavelli's time, it was commonly thought that events were ruled by fate and by God only. Not only that, but men could do nothing to stop or protect themselves from those events. Machiavelli did believe in fate, but he did not believe in the fact the fate controlled all events that occurred to mankind. If that were so then princes would rule by chance. This is proven when Machiavelli states I am not unaware that many have held and hold the opinion that the events are controlled by fortune…cause of this, they would conclude that there is no point in sweating over things, but that one should submit to the rulings of chance. (Machiavelli, pg.79) Machiavelli argued that fate controlled one half a person's life but the other half was governed by the people themselves. Machiavelli strongly suggests that princes are fortunate when fate and time are in harmony with their procedures, but things fall apart when things begin to change and the princes do not attempt to adapt to the changes. Machiavelli...

...Art may come in the form of painting, music, theater, cinema, dance and sculpture. Art is not limited to these categories, but these are the most common. As a child, my first exposure to art was in the form of music. Growing up in Western Kentucky, bluegrass played a large part of my life. My grandfather taught me to play the banjo and guitar starting at the age of 4. I first experienced painting in elementary school beginning in the 1st grade. Cinema has always been a part of my life, but I had not considered it art until I was able to properly define it. I experienced dance in high school while taking an elective ballroom dancing course for a semester. I have experienced theater, but not enough to form an opinion about it. Lastly, sculpture had a small influence when I briefly experimented with it in high school art classes. The most valuable and influential form of art to myself is music. Music has always been a large part of my life. In total, I play 5 instruments. Guitar is the primary instrument I choose to play. My grandfather taught me as a child and I have continued to play every day for many years. I began to perform at a young age in churches and community functions. Later, in high school I started a band with a few other local musicians and we played together for about 4 years. Currently I am in a band composed of all military members; we often play in different small venues in Las Vegas, Nevada. Without music, I would not fell like a complete person. It has played...

...Since the pope first came to worldwide prominence in the late Middle Ages, he has been recognized as both a political and spiritual leader. His religious clout alone demands that the Vatican, the papal state fully under his control, would be filled with breathtaking structures and artwork. As visitors to the Vatican progress through St Peter's Square, into the famed basilica, and perhaps to the Sistine Chapel, they are surrounded with art and architecture created to play very specific roles, ranging from the practical to the symbolic. The Vatican is located on the left bank of the Tiber River in Rome, where, according to tradition, Saint Peter, the first pope and the apostle to whom Christ had left in charge of his ministry, was martyred in 67 A.D. In 320–27 A.D. the emperor Constantine built a five-aisled basilica atop the early Christian necropolis that was Peter's resting place, with a shrine in the apse of the church to mark the location of Peter's tomb. During the medieval decline of Rome and frequent barbarian invasions, popes had to protect the basilica and in the 800s Pope Leo IV began surrounding the future Vatican City with thick walls. The transfer of the papacy to Avignon in 1309 left the Vatican Hill unattended for 70 years, and St. Peter’s was abandoned and left subject to elements. When the popes returned, their top priority was to repair the church. The second was to build a permanent home for the Pope. Due to the lack of resources these changes were not...

...Purpose: To let the audience see and differentiate between works of art. Central Idea: Works of art come in many different forms. Introduction: What could have been in the mind of Michelangelo, as he lay on his back for the better half of four years in 1477 painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel? The work of art known as “The Last Judgment “that he created couldn’t have been possible without his ingenious Fabrefacation. Fabrefacation is a lost word, a noun meaning, “the act of fashioning or making of art”. Preview Statement: First I would like to share with you some of the more famous Fabrefacation art you may already know. Later in the presentation’ I hope to show you pieces of art that many would not have considered being so. Finally, I hope to open your minds to the art that you may or may not already see every day in life. I. These are some more familiar forms of art. Whether you know the names of the artist or not, this is, for most of us how we perceive art. A. Alfred Stieglitz who was born in Hoboken, New Jersey in 1864, was schooled an engineer, but became one of the first and by far most famous Photo artist. B. According to Lisa Hosteter of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, Alfred Stieglitz broke away from The Journal of the Camera Club of New York in 1902 to create ‘Camera Work’ a publication where Photographers could emphasize more on the craftsmanship. C. Stieglitz was also instrumental in bringing the modern art of his time to the...

...1. Summary of the Renaissance person’s life Raffaello Sanzio also well known as Raphael is Italian painter during the Renaissance period and he was born in Urbino, Italy on April 6, 1483 (Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia). He was the one of the major three leading artists who is Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci during that period. Raphael's father, Giovanni Santi, painter at the court of Federigo Montefeltro, Duke of Urbino, first taught him the elements of art and introduced the boy to humanistic philosophy at the court (Raphael). Raphael also helped his father with the court art (Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia). A brilliant self-portrait drawing from his teenage years shows his precocious talent. Raphael lost his mother at age of eight and his father remarried, but Raphael lost his father when he was eleven. Raphael, who now has become the orphan, lived with his uncle Bartolomeo, a priest and later he joined the workshop of Perugino (Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia). Around 1500’s influence of Perugino on Raphael's early work is very clear: "probably no other pupil of genius has ever absorbed so much of his master's teaching as Raphael did", according to Wölfflin (Livingstone). At this period it was almost impossible to distinguish whether it’s work by Perugino or Raphael. In 1504 Raphael arrived in Florence, it was full of recent innovations of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci Raphael’s Peruginesque style was out dated. Raphael was attracted to Leonardo’s work and...

...Giotto and Giovanni Scrovegni Chapel The Chapel was commissioned by Enrico Scovegni; his family fortune was through the practice of usury, (which meant the charging of interest when loaning money; a sin so grave resulted in exclusion from the Christian sacraments). Enrico’s father, Reginald was an erroneous case; he appears in the “Dante’s Inferno as the pro-typical user). Scrovegni called for two of the most famous artists of that time period, Giotto and Giovanni Pisano. Their talents and skill were needed for Scrovegni to atone for his sins; as well to bring an understanding of his power and importance. The Chapel described as a simple barrel-vaulted room that provides broad walls, a boxlike space. A boxed space that becomes the showcase of Giotto’s paintings. When we study about the Gothic Churches the structure the strength of its walls, we tend to as well look upon it now as a book that opens as we walk within its halls. We sense the projectory of the architecture, the history and the paint that is often held within its walls. We think of the debate of the structure, the formation of the history of the church. The kings, the servicemen and to simple town folk that walked upon the great stone and within the story itself. As Architectural as the Gothic quarter foil framework, the dimension of the linear perspective as it presents a coverage of the human mind of the time period as well as it vanishes into a linear motion of stone. We lean upon understanding of the differentiation...

...The Sistine chapel was the only one of Michelangelo’s large scale projects that was insisted by religious leaders such as Julius II and Paul III (Harris, 1976, p 20). The main fresco of the Sistine chapel took four years to complete (1508-12). The last Judgment was created twenty three years later after completing the Genesis ceiling fresco. It is located on the altar of the Sistine chapel. The Last Judgment was commissioned by Pope Clement VII (1523-1534) shortly before his death, and confirmed in 1535 by his successor, Pope Paul III (1468-1549) who was considered the first Counter Reformation Pope. As a religious artwork it was the largest single fresco mural painting of the 16th century (www.everypainterpaintshimself.com/). It was part of the mannerism movement in art and architecture between the 14th and 15th century to show the distortion and exaggeration of human proportions to represent an ideal of beauty rather than its natural form. The last judgement is depicted as a Counter-Reformation painting that reflected embarrassment of the Roman Catholic Church after the failure to stop the protestant reformation (Kedler, 1969, p 160). Furthermore it was created after the Sack of Rome in 1527 by troops of Emperor Charles V, in which compelled the Pope to abandon the Vatican and flee to Orvieto. These events were perceived by some as an indication of a divine wrath by God. The painting was presented to the Catholic community as universal message of the second coming of Christ...

...During the Italian Renaissance, one of the most world renowned artists make his mark. With numerous achievements made as a painter, architect, poet, and sculptor, Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, more commonly known as Michelangelo, earned the label of artistic genius by people of his time and those for centuries to come. Scholars among others, intrigued by his legacy, have examined his works and sorted through documents and biographies left behind in order to piece together Michelangelo’s life story and track his achievements. Despite the vast number of artifacts, though, not every depiction of Michelangelo’s life lines up exactly. Michelangelo’s early life set him up for a successful future in the arts. He...

...The title of the painting is Last Judgment by Giotto di Bondone better known as Giotto. This painting was created c.1305 at Arena Chapel also known as The Scrovegni Chapel, a church located in Padua, Veneto, Italy. The painting is an enormous 33 ft, 27 ft. ¾ inches. This is the largest fresco in the chapel. It covers the entire entrance wall and is the last image visitors see as they leave. It was created by using the sinopie method. The painting can be viewed on page 230 in A History of Western Art textbook. This painting is from the Renaissance Era which explains many of the advanced techniques used like modeling and the use of light. The Last Judgment has a large image of Christ in Majesty in the center and by using a raking scale he is larger than the rest of the characters showing his importance. He has a golden yellow tone mandorla which symbolized the coming together of the heavens and earth. Above Him is the army of Angels waiting for Jesus’ judgment. The twelve apostles sit to His left and right. There are two levels divided into the heavens that are painted above Him, and souls that are plunged into the mouth of hell below Him. As you can see Jesus' right hand gestures towards heaven, the blessed are rising up into heaven, and Jesus’ left hand gestures downwards towards hell which the damned are being thrown into the pits of hell for an eternity of suffering, seeing this shows movement in the painting. The painters humor is shown in the tiny soul hiding behind...
