Art Congress Lecture- Laad-Linang: Sining Tungo sa Malikhaing Edukasyon As a student of HUMAART, the lecture I attended impress me through the words of wisdom of the speaker who is a muslim national artist. Despite his cough and sickness, Dr. Abdulmari Asia Imao still chooses to speak and share his knowledge towards arts. He impressed me when he started to talk about his life experiences which include all of the hardships and downfall before he became a national artist. Moreover, he also impressed me with his achievements in arts especially when some of his paintings are flashed on the screen. The concept of his art is really wonderful and most of them are very colourful. For me, the most outstanding feature of the lecture is that they were able to invite a national artist. Not only just a national artist, but the first muslim national artist. It is because we all know that inviting a speaker is not easy especially a national artist. Moreover, a national artist such as Dr. Imao have the knowledge in arts to open the minds of the students like me and encourage us to appreciate art more through they’re achievements. On the other hand, I think the least outstanding feature of the lecture is that it is not interactive. It is because the listeners didn’t pay their full attention. Maybe that’s why when the lecture is not yet done; there are people who leave already. To make it better, I should have participated and asked questions during the open forum and give my full attention to the speaker. I think the main purpose of the lecture is to let the students became aware of the art month. Moreover, another purpose of the lecture is to encourage the students to appreciate arts more and give importance to it. Herewith, the lecture also tend to let the students be aware of the national artists we have in our country and make us proud of having them through their achievements. Lastly, the purpose of the lecture is also to inspire the

    The reddish strokes in the space above the hat could represent anxiety or uncertainty, which is what his facially expression seems to present to the viewer as well. The grayish paint strokes represented in the negative space outside van Gogh’s image sharply contrasts with the orange, yellow and reddish colors in the facial area and hat, which adds to the overall boldness and vibrancy of the painting. In addition, the space appears to be illusionistic, as the painter depicts an illusion (van Gogh himself) of the three-dimensional spatial world on a two-dimensional…

    This drawing is considered to be a more honest depiction of the events held at Medicine Lodge Creek due to what aspect he includes that all others are missing. When looking over a comparison drawing of the event, done by Taylor, you notice that in Taylor’s drawing, there are many native men, and white men, but only one woman. This woman was not even a full native, yet instead an interpreter for one of the tribes. In the drawing done by Howling Wolf however, he represents the many native women present, and identifies them with characteristics in their hair, or on their tepees. Howling Wolf’s drawing is mainly focused on the women, and represents their great importance with the treaty signing. Women were very important to the tribes. They played a great role and importance all over the Plains society. Howling Wolf in my opinion was more honest as to include all members that took part in the treaty signing, as opposed to others, who picked and choose whose importance was needed in the art.…

    1. formal and iconographic characteristics are seen in high renaissanace, venetian and mannerist paintings. to begin with, in high renaissance michaelangelos Moses is shown holding the 10 commandments. You can clearly see the anger that is dipicted through the facial expression on moses. Michaelangelo wonderfully portrays the psychological states in moses, through the iconographic characteristics of his puffed lower lip, arched toes and the bulging of his veins. the formal characteristics are seen through michealangeols mastery of lines, which help create the anger that is being felt by moses. The formal characteristic of the lining of his beard and clothing show his inner turmoil. In the venetian painting of the virgin of the rocks by Leonardo Da Vinci, the artist magnificantly uses the chiaroscuro method of light and dark to model the expression and emotional states of the figures being portrayed. The lines, soft and subtle give the painting a more intimate feeling. The figures are all shown interacting with one another, praying, pointing, and blessing. He also presents the figures in a pyramidal group and sharing the same environment. The figures emerge through the use of light and shading from the half-light of the cavernous visionary landscape. For mannerism, formal characteristics are clearly seen in Parmigianino's Madonna with the long neck. Although nothing is shown in proportion the painting still apears soft and smooth, through the lines and colors used. The madonnas long neck, the delicacy of her hands and swaying elongation of her frames are all signs of mannerism. On the left stands the angelic creatures melting with emotions as soft and smooth as their limbs. on the right the artist includes a line of columns without capitals and an enigmatic figure with a scroll whose distance from the foreground is immeasureable and imbiguous.…

    After a visual analysis it helped me look deeper into the painting itself. It helped me understand what the artist really was trying to show rather than just a random assessment of colors and shapes. The theme was addressed well because it managed to show a picture of the universe’s history. By understanding what the story behind the painting it helped me understand the meaning behind it more. Also because I visited it so long ago it reminded of how much I enjoyed the piece and it helped me remember it…

    American abstraction emerged from the background of Regionalism and Social Realism in the middle 1930’s.(1) The development and characteristics of Abstract Expressionism began with the Surrealist phase in which artists took an interest in myths and dream and in effect, unconscious creativity. From Expressionism, artists gained a passion for the “expressive qualities of paint.”(1) From Surrealism and Expressionism, Abstract Expressionism was born. Abstract Expressionism was a term used in 1929 by Alfred Barr, Jr. to refer to Kandinsky’s nonfigurative, nonrepresentational paintings.(1)…

    Travelers among Mountains and Streams is comprised of several design elements. Form, leading lines, and shape. These design elements move the eye throughout the painting in a continuous interaction between the elements. Each section is well balanced and rich in content. The large mountain in the foreground sets the foundation for the painting by serving as a barrier, keeping the viewers eyes from leaving the page. The area showing the travelers moving in the stream sets a sense of motion, engaging the eye to travel through the painting. The grand scale of all the elements inspire the viewer to be transported into the realm of fantasy promoted by Northern Song painters. The painting takes on a naturalistic feel that is derived from the combination of paint, ink, and silk. The people and mules moving through the stream bring a sense of scale to the painting. They are an important element in that they are in direct comparison to the large Mountain. The helps promote the idea that there is something bigger than all of of us and that humans are somehow spiritually connected to the earth. An important idea that Northern Song Artist aspired to communicate through ere work. The painting is done in a realistic approach yet is not set in a specific place further enhancing the dream like quality meant to promote spiritual communication and enlightenment. This interpretation is about the balance between the countryside and mans attempt to conquer it brought to life in the form of a painting by Fan Kuan. In the painting the small humans are engulfed by the enormous mountains giving the effect of unattainability, yet the human spirit to conquering the elements arises out of the need explore. The human and animals traveling through the stream give the…

    During a recent visit to the San Antonio Museum of Art, I was able to view many pieces and types of artwork. This particular museum exhibits pieces that come from the period of the Ancient Egyptians all the way up to modern art. It was a very interesting experience and one that I would definitely like to repeat in the future. The piece that was most interesting to me was a Roman floor mosaic that depicts The Battle of Lapiths and Centaurs. A mosaic is a picture or pattern created by fixing together mall pieces of stone, glass, tile and other materials (DeWitte, Larmann and Shields 629)…

    The Senior Seminar Presentations started with a quote that caught my attention it was, "The media don't tell us what to think, they tell us what to think about." This allowed me to be engaged right from the start, allowing for me to have an experiences where I gain knowledge on a lot of new topics. I have never stayed in connection with all of the community and world things that are going on around me and sometimes this is not a positive. However, by not staying up to date, I thought the information that was presented by the speakers was very intellect and relatable to the lives of the students at Indiana Wesleyan University. Similar to any other presentation, people are always going to develop a favorite and a least favorite. I developed two favorite presentations and two of my least favorite presentations. My experience of this presentation was overall a pleasant one.…
