... In 1840 Paris, France; Claude Oscar Monet was born (Claudemonetgallery.org). Claude Monet was known for many paintings. However, he was most known for his work with impressionism and showing light. His works were very different from the time era’s style, realism. Claude Monet broke out from realism by creating and preserving impressionism. With this new idea, he was able to capture nature and light effects on nature. I found his works to draw my attention to them by their vivid colors, and what effects light has on a scenery. What is impressionism? Impressionism is a movement that a group of Paris artist created. “in 1862 Monet became a student of Charles Gleyre in Paris, where he met Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Frédéric Bazille, and Alfred Sisley. Together they shared new approaches to art, painting the effects of light en plein air with broken color and rapid brushstrokes, in what later came to be known as Impressionism.” (Claudemonetgallery.org). His main goal was to show light effects on nature and show how different colors can change a paintings mood. Claude would use vibrant colors, and cool colors. These cool and vibrant colors would contrast against each other. Other paintings he would use just cool colors, others would be vibrant. His works made me feels as if I was outside and weather sets a mood; for example if I was viewing one his paintings and the sun was setting, it would make me feel relaxed. Claude Monet’s work was not only enjoyable to the viewer...

...It is said that Manet was one of the most controversial painters of his time and occupied a very privileged place in Impressionist art, he was a painter of modern life. Manet's paintings represented a modernist style, and depicted them as they were, unobtrusively. Manet was able to combine in an original way what he learned from the great painters of his time. This was one of the reasons that his works provoked rejection and criticism. I agree with Manet, I believe that an artist must have free expression in order to transmit their talents, abilities, creativity, and imagination to produce their masterpiece. I imagine that the true basis of modern art is the freedom of expression of the artist before any subject, without having to choose between...

...The Museum Experience One of my favorite things to do when traveling in a new city is to visit the museums. I have never been to a city that did not offer the usual museum fare, usually in the form of the “Anytown Art Museum”, or the “Anytown Museum of Natural History”. While these types of museums house some incredible artifacts, and I do visit them often, I also like to seek out museums of a more unusual sort. Museums are mostly the same just about everywhere you go, both in the United States and Europe. They offer the visitor a glimpse into the past culture of any given city or country by displaying relics found throughout the world. But there are also many museums that showcase artifacts of the culture in a much more specific way. Some fine examples of these kinds of museums include the Pez Museum, close to San Francisco, dedicated to the little candy dispenser, the Muzeum hracek in Prague, dedicated to toys of the world, both past and present, the Dungeon, a history of Medieval torture, also in Prague, and the Liberace Museum in Las Vegas, dedicated to all things Liberace--and I mean all things. The Pez Museum is not actually in San Francisco, but is located south of the city in a town called Burlingame. If you are in the Bay Area for any reason, do not miss this museum! Remember when you were a little kid, and you loved to collect Pez dispensers? Well, times have changed, and now Pez collections mean big money, and big business. The most expensive Pez dispenser...

...realism art movement. Realism is the study of representation of a scene that stays as true to life as possible. They abandoned the ideals of romanticism, where the aesthetic was warped to fit their embellished emotionalism of preconceived ideas. Thus the realists focused on depicting scenes with authenticity. Many images of the workhouse arouse due to the Industrial revolution at the time. Realism began in France in the 1850s and flourished when photography was born. Edouard Manet was a character full of antithesis. On one hand he was a rebellious socialist yet he was also a dignified bourgeois. During his lifetime he became famous for breaking away from the traditional academic way of painting and was once hailed “the first modern painter” (A World History of Art, Hugh Honour & John Fleming pg 677) Yet he was heavily influenced by the masters of the past and their inspiration can clearly be seen “Le Déjeuner sur l’Herbe” (http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/manet/dejeuner/manet.dejeuner-sur-herbe.jpg) Manet wanted to make a statement with this peice of work, even more so than his controversial painting Olympia. But He was also desperate to be accepted by the Parisian salon because it was uneasy to artistically survive without that sort of status. However his wishes were denied, instead a small scale exhibition for the refused artists was held in an annex, that later became known as the Salon des Refusés. Both the critics and the public were outraged by this peice. Unlike the previous...

...The relationship between the artist and the audience is a crucial element to the success of the artwork in its historical era. Titian’s traditional Renaissance symbolism and style of painting made his work a masterpiece of his time. According to art critic Brand Hamlee Titian’s work met the “demands of an admiring public. As he was particularly famous for his portraits and mythological works” this created a positive relationship between “Venus of Urbino” and the intended Renaissance audience. The relationship between the artwork and the audience is also evident through the Renaissance symbolism throughout his artwork, Venus seductive glaze captured Renaissance viewers and the high quality of Venetian light and tone to perfection was a vital characteristic to the success of the artwork to its intended audience. In addition, using symbolism, which had significance to the Renaissance mythological style also strengthened the relationship between the artist and the artwork. The Spaniel represents a symbol of fidelity a strong theme in Renaissance art as well as the use of roses, myrtle tree and the Spaniel were traditionally associated with the goddess Venus. The Brush strokes and pale rosy and ochre colours luxuriously applied created the central tones of the Venus body is an essential symbol of Renaissance sensuality, beauty and desire that was praised by all audiences. Although the intended Renaissance audience understood the key symbolism, the relationship between the artwork...

...images without detail but with bold colors. There were many great impressionist artists. Artist of the impressionist period Edourard Manet was an artist in the years of 1832-1833. He was a founding father of Impressionism and was a crucial part of Salon des Refusés in 1863. Edourard Manet was an artistic influence to many impressionist artists. He claimed to not be himself as an Impressionist though. He said he would not be labeled as that and did not exhibit with the others. Many impressionists borrowed from his style also. Manet influenced development of Impressionism. Olympia which was created in 1863 was a famous painting that Manet created. His style in this period was characterized by loose brush strokes, simplification of details, and the suppression of transitional tones. Adopting the current style of realism initiated by Gustave Courbet, he painted The Absinthe Drinker and other contemporary subjects such as beggars, singers, Gypsies, people in cafes, and bullfights. After his early years, he rarely painted religious, mythological, or historical subjects such as his Christ Mocked, now in the Art Institute of Chicago, and Christ with Angels, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. The roughly painted style and photographic lighting in these works was seen as specifically modern, and as a challenge to the Renaissance works Manet copied or used as source material. His work is considered 'early modern', partially because of the black outlining of figures, which...

...Critical Research Paper “The Mocking of Crist” by Edouard Manet Natallia Kolas Oakton Community College (DP Campus) HUM 123 (6:30 class) 09/27/2011 Even before going to the Art Institute, I knew that I wanted to write about one of Manet’s paintings. I admire his passion to create beautiful art even if it meant going against “old school” standards and principles. “The Mocking of Crist ” really caught my eye because of artist’s unusual interpretation of a religious subject. I felt intrigued by the idea of a red bearded Crist looking bored and out of place. When it was first presented to the public, “The Mocking of Crist ” received tons of negative criticism for the artist’s painting techniques, his choice of lower-class people as models and, of course, his interpretation of Jesus Christ’s character. “The Mocking of Crist” was painted between 1864 and 1865 in France. It is a great example of the Realist movement in art. Manet’s original title for the painting was “Jesus Insulted by the Soldiers.” Clearly, Manet did not mean to represent the soldiers' behavior in the way that title implied. Recently, once again, its name was changed to “Jesus Mocked by Soldiers.” Some sources also refer to it as “Christ Scourged.” In the center, Christ, the brightest figure, is sitting in a chair surrounded by three other male figures, soldiers. This scene is also known as the mocking of the “king of the Jews” before the execution. In this painting, the...

...Realism and Impressionism Movements Gloria Slezak ART 101- Art Appreciation Instructor Todd Leisek May 23, 2014 This essay will be about Realism and Impressionism movements. Both Realism and Impressionism movement was in the 19th century. The differences between these movements are that the Realism movement was in the mid-19th century and Impressionism was in the late 19th century. I will discuss two pieces of artwork that was done in these movements. One will be The Stone Breakers by Gustave Courbet and the other one is called Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette by Auguste Renoir. In this essay I will do my best to explain a little about how the characteristics and factors are reflected in these pieces of art. The Stone Breakers was a painting done by a French painter named Gustave Courbet. Gustave was well-known for his work of arts of still lives, self-portraits, females, common men workers, landscapes and many other common places. This painting was done in 1849 and is about hundred sixty-five years old. Addressed as the pioneer of the Realist movement Gustave set a unique artistic movement which caused a lot of disagreement among other artists. This movement demonstrated and signified the everyday life. Realism was exceptional and contentious in the sense that it broke away from the norm which was for centuries illustrating popular, religious figures, however Gustave ideologies were for artists to represent only what they can see or have lived. His painting was a work...

...Cultures are structure of circumstance that develop our thinking ahead of an individual learner. An adult social surroundings influence how she or he learns. The mind takes in details and information changes it all to wisdom. This could lead to behavior change.

Gordon Welty wrote an effective training reader Q & A It is about the work place and how the adult learning theory is used. These theories are base on Eduard Lindeman, Malcolm S.
