My last piece of evidence comes from a Ted Talk by Janine di Giovanni stated that the things she saw in war even as a reporter were horrifying and she can't imagine what soldiers go through everyday. She say piles of dead children who never got to see the end of their lives dead because of the war generals forcing kids to fight with weapons at such a young age. She said many soldiers sided because they were forced to lose their innocence during war and attack. I can't imagine how many toddlers saw soldiers shooting men and thinking that was ok. Towns were destroyed and homes were demolished and kids and young adults had to experience that and lose their innocence.…

Art allow people to send awareness of problems that have been easily rejected by justice. The second art Museum that I attended this semester was the National Museum of Mexican art. I was very excited to attend this museum because after seeing the Art Institute for the first time I felt in love with art. When I arrive at the museum I enter the first exhibit as my friend and I were talking around the corner one beautiful painting caught my attention. The name of the art piece was Los Sueños Rotos (Broken Dreams) by Rocio Caballero. This painting stood out to because of how realistic this painting looked. I told my friend that this painting was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, my friend also liked it.…
When taking a trip to the Norton Museum of Art I chose a one dimensioned painting called Adam that was located on the first floor. The artist is Nicholas Carone and was painted in 1956. To the left of the painting, Adam, was another painting named Personage which was painted by Robert Mothewell in 1943. Personage is an abstract oil painting on canvas with multiple different colors. To the right of Adam was a sculpture called Sea Quarry and was created by Theodore Roszak. The sculpture was not an obvious choice that it was a sea animal at first. I had to stand there for a minute and really look at the sculpture to being to see what it was really intended for the sculpture to be. Returning to my original choice, Adam by Nicholas Carone, it is also an oil painting done on canvas. Carone first started with a plane black picture and continued to manipulate it with white paint color and other lines using different thick and thin brushes. The picture was made to represent and recreate light and shadow but is opaque. It uses several different elements of art including color, value, line, shape, and space. “Adam”s composition is curved lines and is known as an Abstract Expressionism type of art.…
They are a few artists that display arts that make people uncomfortable or questioned themselves as to why they wanted to see their display. Some of the arts bring out our emotion. For example, Chris Ofili painted an art piece called The Holy Virgin Mary, and it caused a lot of controversies in the Brooklyn Museum of Arts. He got positive review from other countries, but when he displayed in the Brooklyn Museum he got a lot of people angry especially the mayor.…
Over the years art work has changed and artists have their own way of interrupting what art is and how it should be viewed. Between the years of 1506 to 2012 each artist I’ve chosen has their own way of depicting beauty. Art is in the eye of the beholder. One person may like something while someone else may see it in a different way. While visiting the Appleton Museum, I got in touch with my artist side.…
Christopher Russel exhibition was very three dimensional. It made you want to touch and feel the different textures. From the snakes in the flowers to the eagle with its wing spread wide. It is a different form of art that you don’t see every day. Usually people think of art as only paintings and not the sculptures that are art.…

I went to the North Carolina Museum of Art on April 8th, a beautiful and sunny day. Being around the museum conjured a sense of nostalgia to my middle school days when I took a field trip to the museum. Since that last visit I have gained a better understanding about art and what goes into every piece of work. I have also gained more experience, back then I did not know how to shade properly and did not know a thing about composition. Now, I have a greater appreciation for every stroke of a brush and color applied. The reason I chose the North Carolina Museum of Art was solely to re-experience the art with my new artistic eye. While walking through the museum, I searched for that one piece of art that would catch my eye and inspire me to talk…
The theme for my gallery exhibition will be fluxus. The art movement/ theme "fluxus" originated in the 1960's. Similar to the theme "art and the quotidian object", which means art of the everyday (found) object(s). Fluxus loosely translates to flow or change in many different languages. In comparison, Fluxus has many similarities with Marcel Duchamp's "dada" art movement from the 1920's. While dada is more of a world view, fluxus, on the other hand, is more of a state of mind/ attitude that represents anti-art (anti commercialism) and follows in dada's footsteps. Fluxus also meshed well with the ongoing and/or perpetuating rebellious attitudes of the sixties and seventies. Fluxus went against everything that modernism stood for at the time, but mainly against the overall seriousness of modern art. Fluxus art usually always consists of different media types, including performances, videos, recordings, texts, everyday (found) objects, and unscripted audience participation. Many of these are done/ shown in a random fashion and are frequently used in combination with each other. Another important characteristic is the minimal nature of fluxus. Works are simple, performances were kept brief, the art was small, and texts short. An important element in fluxus has always been humor as well. Fluxus art also encourages a sort of eco/ environmentally friendly ethic to the world because most fluxus artists will use whatever materials they have on hand to create their art with.…
When our class visited Joan and Robert Rechnitz Hall I felt as if this would be a hard assignment because I felt as if none of the artwork would catch my attention, seeing as I’ve never had an interest in artwork while growing up. This visit was really eye opening because not only did I enjoy the time we spent there, surprisingly I was actually interested in some of the work that was being displayed at that time.…
One of the most impressive events that I attended was helping autistic children in the Sunny Family to successfully sponsor the arts exhibition. Under the help of AOA art, an autistic arts association, as a community service volunteer, coming to Sunny family to visit those kids every week, was on my schedule list. Discovering that autistic children preferred to grab their brushes with mixed colors and scrabble unconsciously instead of communication, Impressed by the warm and cold color overlapped, my sense was stimulated by not only for the strong colors but also the passion of autistic kids. I discussed with the director of community service director, collected all their paintings, and determined the exhibition location by calling AOA art.…
The play Gem of The Ocean overall was a great production, although this paper is not suppose to be about what I liked or disliked about the play. For the simple fact that I don’t regularly go and watch plays; just going to this one made me realize how well put together plays are. From the acting, the design and the direction of the play were all amazing to me. This paper is to inform any reader that the actor selection was a great pick, the design was effective in a numerous amount of ways and the direction of the play was undoubtedly astounding.…
An artist who manifests quite clearly the sensibility of this sort of stylelessness is Pádraig Timoney. His exhibitions, famously, are said to resemble group shows. In a short essay by Alessandro Rabottini this avoidance of recognizable style is described as something the artist practices with 'extreme and paradoxical coherence', achieving a 'radical eclecticism' in presenting works that do not resemble one another. Timoney not only fragments the subjective authority we might expect to find when many of an artist's works are gathered together, but disables the viewer's ability to recognize a subjective thesis in the totality of the works. The exhibition, in fact, becomes an assembly where, according to Rabottini, 'each work as a distinct unit (become) coordinates'. This is according to Rabottini, a way of fragmenting the singular authorship of an artistic practice until it can form a curatorial…
