...Name Instructor Date Compare and contrast pieces of fine art Fine art has been considered as the major source of history, which has articulated several formatives that depict on the essence of humanity. Based on different sources, fine art has navigated some comparatives that portray the nature of history that equally aligns some prospects that site on the major differences on art. To start with, the major goal of the fine art is mainly to promote a unique active and thoughtful approach towards analyzing some specification of art history. Therefore the process requires taking into consideration by comparing and contrasting some essentials of the two pieces of art that attempt to approach the critical thinking analysis. This assumption invites availing the simple analysis of the information that ideally addresses the craft of an effective subtlety that is undertaken on the process. Every step that is articulated on the preparation of the early course on the fine art is depicted as an informative exhibit that is consolidated in organizing the discrete bits in a larger notion. This is well crafted on the practice of the fine art that distinguishes the level of thinking in the history of art. Based on that note, the major exercise that reviews on fine history has added the benefit of the emerging success on the concepts of well-crafted images of fine art. This equally announces the expected comparison that focuses on this practice. The completion of the moral abstract by the major...

...slashed to the bare minimum to where programs are being dropped left and right. The first programs to go are often disciplines that fall into the fine arts category: such as music, art and foreign language. However, the problem is not just the lack of funds, but the increase in demands on testing on “more important” core classes. Across the nation, this testing obsession has kicked side fine arts in most schools that had once had been vital places of learning, have been reduced itself to mere test prep factories where “achievement” means nothing more than scoring well on a bubble test. In reality, fine arts in a school’s curriculum are just as, if not, more...

...My Experience Appreciating Art In my search for a piece of local artwork to examine and write a paper on, I visited the “Fine Art Society Art Gallery” located in commercial circle in Warner Robins, Georgia. After looking for about 30 minutes, I took a few pictures of different pieces of art, and have come to the decision of which I am going to be looking over. This piece was found at the Fine Arts Society Fine Arts Gallery. It is titled “Half Remembered Dream” by Aaron Brown. There are quite a few visual elements of this piece that pop out to the viewer. The use of lighter colors in the top right corner allow for a change in mood as your eyes follow it to it’s focal point. The focal point would be the two most defined organic figures in...

...The Museum of Fine Art I went to Boston in this spring break and I visited one of the largest museums in the United States, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Massachusetts. The Museum of Fine Art attracting over one million visitors a year. It contains over 450,000 works of art, making it one of the most comprehensive collections in the Americas. It is also the 54th most visited art museum in the world, and the twelfth most-visited in the United States, as of 2010. The Museum was founded in 1870 and opened in 1876, with a large portion of its collection taken from the Boston Athenaeum Art Gallery. There are tons of different exhibits; some temporary and some more permanent. I went to see some of the temporary exhibits- Degas and the Nude and Aphrodite and the Gods of Love. The permanent exhibits include items of Paul Revere, silversmith, which are really cool. Their early American collection represents a wide variety of art and arts, craft and crafts. I tend to love their artifacts collections. Their permanent modern art gallery is cool but for me, is not as strong as some of their other offerings, like their collection of priceless musical instruments from around the world, throughout history. Their permanent pan-Asian art gallery is strong for its location. I'm not a big fan of their restaurant, but their cafe is open, airy, and pleasant. The museum hosts art from all over the world and from all different eras like Asia, Oceania, Greece and Egypt, the Americas, and more...

...there is a digital-like granularity to how we analyze and store experiences. We don’t remember every single point in time as a discreet instant—rather our memories are aggregations of a number of instances we have grouped based on some consciously or subconsciously perceived similarity.” (Ryan Wolfe, 21c Museum) III. Aesthetic Value What attracted me to his work was how he was able to capture that instance of nature and bring it indoors on a wall for everyone to experience. It is inspiring by how he was able to engineer the experience through electronic devices that gave the wall life. It means a lot that someone experienced something so small but yet brings us to that experience that we are alive. I personally think this piece of art has its place, but I was not a fan of the exposed wires connecting one device to another. I would not purchase this piece. References 21cmuseumhotels.

...2nd April 27, 2018 Why Fine Arts Needs to Stay Fine arts is the teaching or education of certain skills. These skills include, visual art, acting, singing, and more. The problem with fine arts it the amount of money that it costs causing many schools to shut it down (Education and the Fine Arts). This is causing students to miss out on the opportunity to participate in fine arts. I think that schools should have a fine arts program because of the benefits students get from it. Some of the many benefits to fund arts are the ability to work with a team. Some students have a hard time working together and fine arts can help with that. Students will need to work together to achieve a goal such as a song...

...Patric Rooney Intro to Fine Arts Gary Towne The fine arts are comprised of multiple forms of arts, two of them being visual art and music. I decided to analyze one piece of visual art and one piece of music, based on several different elements of the respective categories. I chose to begin with the visual art piece, The Arnolfini Wedding, because of its many small and intricate details hidden in the artwork. Jan van Eyck (Flemish, before 1390-1441), The Arnolfini Wedding, 1434, oil on oak panel of 3 vertical boards, 82.2 cm × 60 cm, National Gallery of Art, London, is an intricate piece of art with many minuscule details that contain an abundance of symbolism and meaning. One of the first things to catch your eye will be the man and woman standing in the forefront of the image. At first, one may believe that the woman in the velvet green robe is pregnant, but it has been found that this was actually excess fabric from her robe creating the bump on her stomach. Both the man and woman have their hands in positions that imply that they are taking some type of oath, more specifically an oath of marriage. The clothing worn by the wedding couple is common clothing of their time, for people of the upper class. If you were to zoom in on the picture, you begin to realize the realistic qualities of all of the textures in the painting. One use of this skill that jumps out at me is the lifelike beads that sit beside the circular mirror. If you look closely at the gear...

...19th Century Art Education, Industrial Art or Fine Art? Varick Taylor East Carolina University MAED Art 6800 History and Philosophy of Art Education Abstract As an art educator in the today’s public school system, I feel that it is my responsibility to introduce and allow my students to explore the arts from the past and the present. I want them to learn a variety of art making techniques and art history. I also want to prepare them for future by giving them exposure to possible career choices that utilizes the arts. Therefore I feel it is important that my art classes allow students to be exposed to both the fine arts and design fields of the 21st century. 21st century technology like 19th century industrialization has influenced art education methods. The use of technology in classes is increasing each year. We are using design software to create both designs and fine art assignments on computers. In the 19th century, industrialization was one of the most important reasons why art became a part of public school education. Government leaders and the industry wanted America to able to compete with the superior European imports. As a result they felt that requiring drawing as a subject in public schools would help the U.S. in competing with Europe and balance trade. Knowing how much they wanted America to produce better products, I was puzzled when the Massacusetts did not model its art education after the France, whom was considered the best in producing superior product...

...Word Count 1006 The art of theatre is very important part of our culture. Without entertainment, whether it is individual or with a group humans could not stay occupied. Throughout time stories have been pasted down from generation to generation-through words, books and theater. Theatre continues to thrive and has become an important subject in schools now. People are allowed to express their creative and critical thinking to really allow the viewers to get involved. The purpose of theater is to develop performance art through any distinctively cultural foundations. Theatre is able to enrich our social and cultural views through art and performance. Actors provide a stage that they can really test the limits of their own creativity by ongoing dialogue of ideas. The “whipping man” is to show the relationship between a master and slave. We are shown that after losing everything you never know what you will have left. Caleb is part of a white family that bought slaves and treated them like family. Caleb leaves and returns only to find out that the two people who are left after war are two slaves his family owned. Simon and John are now forced to take care of Caleb because that is all they know to do. Simon is the main caretaker and demands respect from Caleb when he returns home, because things are different now and he should not be treated the same. John struggles with this relationship with Caleb because when they were younger the two were best friends until Caleb was given...

...Fine Arts The Marble Statue of a Wounded Warrior is a Roman statue from A.D. 138-181; it is a copy of a Greek statue that was cast around 460-450 B.C. The subject matter of this statue is a warrior in the midst of battle and as the name indicates the warrior is wounded despite the subject not appearing wounded at first glance. The ancient Greek statue depicts a Greek war hero in a contrapposto position caught in a stance of action – the way he is immortalized in the statue directly correlates with Ancient Greek art of its time period and the belief that human body features should be idealized. By evaluating several elements we will be able to see how the Ancient Greek’s act of idolizing the warrior’s physical features is further illustrated in our modern day portrayal of the statue. We will review such things as the statue itself, the history of which it originates from, and the modern day depiction of the statue as viewed from the analysis of the museum’s placement and description of the work of art. As one walks into the corridor where the Wounded Warrior stands, his presence is immediately felt. The frame of reference for us as the viewers is pre-determined. The statue seems to be on a downward slope, his body is at a slight angle where his left foot stands in front of a bent right foot with his head looking down. As we grow closer to the statue, our position in correlation to him is inferior – we are meant to be looking up at him and, as the original probably would have...

...Perceptions of Third Year Fine Arts Students In Far Eastern University on the Use Of Nude Models in Art In Partial Fulfillment of The Subject Requirements In English 8 (Technical Writing) Submitted to: Mr. Rogelio Ramos Guce English Department Institute of Arts and Sciences by Alimorong, Aislin Nika Alterado, Charles Caga-anan, Mark Nathaniel Elpedes, Jhune-Marx Nuñez, Domnilourd Pangilinan, Shem Salvador, Mikaela Valdez, Judah Yatco, Ma. Barbara FT0933 First Semester S.Y. 2011 - 2012 CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction In the early days, great masters like da Vinci, Michaelangelo and Botticelli had been using nude models as references in their artworks for religious purposes. Up until now, this idea is still being implemented by artists but it is now more about aesthetics. Nude art generally refers to the artists’ depiction of artistic elements of nudity instead of actually showing the naked form of humans. Different cultures react differently on the use of nude models in art. It is through the aesthetic view of nude art that most countries accept this kind of art (Changing Depictions of Art Nudes, 2011). Art schools including Far Eastern University also accept the use of nude models in art such as paintings, sculpture, photography, and the like. In the curriculum of the Fine Arts Department, there are subjects like Anatomy, Life Drawing and Life Painting wherein nude models are used as references in...

...Arts and Crafts A few weeks ago, I made my first trip to an art gallery, the Tucson Museum of Art, in Tucson, Arizona. I went in ready to take notes with my notepad and pen not knowing what to expect, but hopeful that I could find a few pieces worth writing about. At the entrance, the ladies at the information desk were very helpful in getting me started after I explained my mission. After relieving me of my pen and giving me a pencil, I walked through the gallery. I found many pieces that I really liked, and only very few that I didn’t. Throughout my visit, it became more and more difficult to choose only two pieces that I like and one I do not. Fortunately for me, the day I visited the Museum was the last day of Judy Miller’s exhibit called, Imaginary Dioramas. Miller’s dioramas involve taking pictures of celebrity’s wax figures (normally from Madam Toussad’s Wax Museums), and superimposing the pictures onto an unlikely background. Imaginary Dioramas is about dichotomy. One of my favorite pieces from the exhibit was titled, Outtake #26, Uma. The background of the picture is a serene forest in autumn, showing trees and many leaves on the ground. On the left side of the picture is a close-up of Uma Thurman in her part as The Bride, Beatrix Kiddo, from the movie Kill Bill volume 2, looking more than ready for the director to yell, “Action!”, so she can continue to cut bad guys in half with her sword. On the right side, the director, Quentin Tarantino, is shown making...

As you have learned in this class, film is a far- reaching medium with the potential to affect the greater fabric of our culture. Our understanding this potential and our ability to analyze it reach far beyond just this medium and into all areas of our social structures and culture. For example, the practice of closely analyzing particular films, which we’ve honed in this course, is the same practice of analysis which you will find in other courses – or in learning any new skill. Based on the films you have watched and the ways you have learned to interpret meaning in them, discuss your ideas about how films engage social concerns and have lasting effects on society. Pick a film (or films) as evidence of this dynamic and describe the social and cultural resonance you see. Your initial post should be at least 150 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. By Day 7, respond to at least two classmates who referenced different films than those you have chosen. In your responses, compare the film you discussed as having a lasting effect on society with the films noted in your classmates’ posts. For more Assignments visit...
