    As I entered the Norton Simon Museum , the first exhibit I saw was a sketch done by the famous Pop artist Andy Warhol. The drawing was of canned tomatoes by Val Vita , a company that Simon owned, and was commissioned for Simon's birthday by his sister . As I walked through the extensive collection of paintings, drawings , and sculptures, many of the pieces caught my eye. The museum was divided into different chronological periods so that one could see the evolution of art and the themes that were expressed through them . Also the different cultures represented, including an entire floor dedicated so Asian art , showed the influence and contrasts that the works presented.…

    The author suggest that we ask ourselves: “What is the purpose of this work of art (and what is the purpose of art in general)? What does it mean? What is my reaction to the work and why do I feel this way? How do the formal qualities of the work-such as color, its organization, its size and scale-affect my reaction? What do I value in works of art?”…

    Andy Warhol founded the art movement called pop art, and his lifestyle and work both mocked and celebrated the world’s obsession with materiality and fame. On one side, his paintings of distorted everyday items and celebrity faces could be seen as a display for what he viewed as a culture consumed with money and being famous. On the other side, his focus on consumer goods and celebrities, and his own fame and fortune, suggest a life in celebration of the aspects of American culture that his work criticized.…

    Warhol: the Flatness of Fame

    THANK YOU all for being here this brisk March afternoon. I’d like to thank the GRAM for the invitation to speak in conjunction with such a wonderful exhibition, and especially Jean Boot for all of her diligent coordination on my behalf. (There are 3 parts to my presentation. First, a virtual tutorial on the process of screen-printing; secondly, a discussion of the formal and conceptual potential inherent to printmaking, and the way in which Warhol expertly exploited that potential. Finally, I will conclude with an actual demonstration of screen-printing in the Museum’s basement studio.) In coming weeks, you’ll have an opportunity to hear much more about the cultural-historical context for Andy Warhol’s work from two exceptional area scholars, beginning next Friday evening with a lecture by my colleague at GV, Dr. Kirsten Strom, and on _______ Susan Eberle of Kendall College of Art & Design. As Jean indicated in her introduction, I teach drawing and printmaking at GVSU. In other words, I’m approaching Warhol’s work very much as a studio artist. As a printmaker in particular, I’m predisposed to note the large degree (great extent?) to which the innate characteristics of the medium – in this case screen-printing - enable and inform the meaning of Warhol’s work. At the outset of each printmaking course I teach at Grand Valley, I provide students a brief overview of the social history of the print; I divulge its rich heritage in the service of dispensing and preserving our (collected cultural discourse, from…) verbal and pictorial languages, knowledge and history, cultural discourse, from ancient scripture to textile design to political critique. In addition I cite the formal qualities specific to the print – multiplicity, mutability, and its recombinant capabilities. I open with this background as a means of framing the work students will produce in the course. I’d like to provide a similar overview here, as a means of framing the work of Warhol, which is so richly…

    What is the meaning behind the decision? Inspired by his surroundings and his life experiences, Warhol created an art piece that challenged an audience to view an everyday item in an entirely new way. In doing so, Warhol introduced a completely new viewpoint and created a completely new approach to art that pushed the boundaries and definition of art. This paper will try to understand and analyze why Andy Warhol chose Campbell’s Soup Cans and painted 32 cans with…

    6. What was most memorable in the book for me is when Walter was trying to escape from the cell that he was thrown into. It made me think about some of the actions I have made in the past and how I could have had much more severe consequences and that I learned my lesson. I can relate it to my own experiences of when I was in Kindergarten and got sent to time-out for ruining someone else’s painting, because I thought that it was better than mine. The pleasure that I found in the book is that it’s fun with Walter talking to the rats, and him getting away in a funny and unexpected way.…

    “Campbell's Soup Cans”, which is a piece made up of 32 canvases each illustrating a can of Cambell’s Soup, was produced by Andy Warhol in 1962. The painting is one of the most authentic representations of pop art because it is innovative and successfully incorporates the elements and principles of design. Warhol employed the following elements of design: line, shape, texture, form, and color. The element line and shape are represented because he used lines to create the can and the lid, which can be considered a rectangle and a circle, respectively. Texture is defined as how something feels visually, he portrays that the can of soup is smooth, nevertheless, illustrates that the lid is not a smooth surface as it has circular ridges. Due to the…

    The first work of art I chose to analyze is called Campbells Soup Cans by Andy Warhol. Andy Warhol is known to be a founding father of the Pop Art movement of his time with Campbells Soup Cans being one of his many famous pieces of Pop Art (Wolf). Andy Warhol painted the original Campbells Soup Cans in 1962 using synthetic polymer paint on canvas. The finished product is towering measuring at an approximate 93”x163” and is made up of 32 canvases, measuring at 20”x16” individually (Wolf).

    In the first lesson, we talked about Andy Warhol and his types of paintings. We had to use Adobe Photoshop to edit our photograph we took during the lesson. After that lesson, we had homework to complete which was to use Photoshop and the same photograph and change the colour. We had to do this four times and then we pasted the images to make a collage. Next we made a grid of 15 squares on top of our picture. After we had done that, we drew 15 grids on an A3 sheet of paper. And on those grids, we scaled the picture to make it look larger. We drew this on. Next, we painted a thin background colour. We had to use the most dominant colour for the background. The most dominant colour for my painting was red/orange, so that is what I used. We talked about how the portrait has changed. Once we had finished all of that, we started painting the large patches of the painting. After that we had to research some pictures on the BP Portrait Awards website and we had to write our opinions on them. Finally we had to add in the small patches and the tiny details as well as an eye-catching background.…
