Is Bonheur Devivre And Les Demoiselles D Avignon
In this discussion we shall talk about Matisse's painting Bonheur deVivre and Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon and how each were inspired and individualized from Cezanne's painting The Large Bathers.

First, let us discuss Matisse. Matisse's painting is inspired by Cezanne's The Large Bathers in the sense that the colors and stage setting are similar. While the blue suggest lightness however the mood of the painting itself is not light-hearted in Cezanne's painting. The lighter yellow and the freedom to leak outside of the lines in the Matisse painting makes it a much more cheerful one.

Matisse breaks away from Cezanne in the method he has of skewing the scales in his painting.

While Matisse uses the setting of the stage in similar

    Comparing Jules Cheret And Will H. Bradley's Art

    In this essay I will be discussing French artist Jules Cheret’s art work: La Loie Fuller (1893, figure 2.3) and American artist Will H. Bradley’s art work: The Chap Book, Thanksgiving no. (1895, figure 2.24) in a compare and contrast exercise, looking at both the similarities but also what makes these two works very different. The art works are both dated by the end of the nineteenth century. Around the same time, the Industrial Revolution brought a huge boost productivity, but also changed the social structure in Europe. Some artists start interest in finding a new artistic vocabulary that could best express the industrial world in which they lived. Therefore, an artistic movement called Art Nouveau has started in around 1890 to1910. It turned Western Classicism into Modernism. Jules Cheret and Will H. Bradley’s art…

    Norton Simon Museum Analysis

    My recent visit to the Norton Simon Museum was very different than any previous experience I have had with modern art. With only a semester's worth of knowledge under my belt, I was most definitely in awe, and thoroughly entertained, to say the least. Although inspired by many, I chose to analyze two works with very similar subject matter, by two German Expressionist artists. I compared a piece entitled, "Bathing Girls", painted by Franz Marc, to the similarly titled "Bathers Beneath Trees"; a work by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner.…

    Fauvism In Henri Matisse's The Joy Of Life

    Matisse uses yellow to grab a viewers attention, and while it could be a descriptive color for a beach as the painting suggests, it was more likely used in the psychological sense. Brilliant hues of red take the place of the darker shadows tones and depth shadows usually found in a realistic depiction. Some of the grass elements are depicted in their right color while others are depicted in shades of blue and grey, suggesting that maybe the scene is an interpretation of what one would see at night. Notice too, the body of the figure playing the flutes is also in a lower value as compared to the to figures in the…

    Mowry And Hutmacher

    Mowry’s work was referenced in the second source, “Urban Liberalism and the Age of Reform” by author Joseph Huthmacher, as a way to differ from the recurrent perspective of the middle-class, placing them as the heroes of the Progressive movement. Huthmacher replaces the middle-class with the urban working class, a mix of immigrants and impoverished folk. Huthmacher’s paper provides a fine and well-written account in favor of the marginalized, regardless it comes up short of Mowry’s case, which stayed on point and gave an even handed stance, without displaying an emphasis on the audience behind the actual lawmakers and those who had a more substantive and notable voice. Huthmacher states that the real achievement of the reforms stemmed from…

    Moma

    Henri Matisse was a French artist, known for his use of color and originality. He is also commonly regarded, along with Picasso, as one of the two greatest artists of the 20th century. In addition Matisse was one of the great initiators of the modern art movement, which uses the combination of bold primary colors and free simple forms. His most notable paintings that comes to mind after visiting Moma is Blue Nude, Le Luxe II, Bathers with a Turtle, and La Danse. Collectively, these paintings have various similarities as well as differences from each other.…

    Visual Comparison Between Matisse's Vie of Collioure and Picasso's Factories at Horta de Ebro

    Visual Comparison Between Matisse's Vie of Collioure and Picasso's Factories at Horta de Ebro

    I'd say View of Collioure is like a classic plein air oil painting done in a different way. The colors are not realistic at all. They are much more vibrant and warm ---- the mountain in the background is straightforwardly pink with some strange green patches, the foreground is red, the walls of the houses are of various red and pink, the roofs are golden and red-orange, and the sea is too blue. It was painted very loosely. The brush strokes are evident and scattered. They were applied spontaneously and freely, almost like a crayon drawing. The artist didn't care to cover the whole surface of the canvas. Strokes, lines, and blocks of colors are often not adjacent right to each other, and the canvas shows through. However, the perspective is correct and creates a realistic depth of space. We can see very well that first there is the red foreground, then houses and wharves by the shore, then mountains across the water recede into the background. Matisse also put a short fat blue line in the upper right corner aside the distant mountain to indicate horizon line. Despite the strong and nonrepresentational colors, the rough brush strokes, the lack of details and light and shadow, the viewer can still get a pretty good sense that this image is about a real place. Maybe this painting was even done on site. I can imagine fishermen---or whoever---- living in the houses depicted in the painting. The bright warm colors make the image pleasant and inviting. It is a place you'd like to visit.…

    Getty Museum Visit

    As I strolled the room, I took care to notice every piece of art that was displayed. The van Gogh caught my eye immediately, but, unfortunately, there were restrictions on my ability to write about it. There had to be about forty works in the room. No sooner than I had started to look around again, however, that a second painting caught my eye. I had never seen it before, but something about it looked very familiar. Possibly the brilliant orange glistening over the mind-numbing grays and blues. Or maybe it was the quick brushstrokes that seemed to want to move quickly enough to literally capture the light being emitted from the incandescent sun. Whatever the case, as I stepped closer to the work, I realized what should have been obvious the second I placed my gaze upon it. It was a Monet.…
