Chapters 13-18 You must write at least 200 but no more than 300 words for each essay. Each essay is worth 15 points. I have included a copy of the assignment and the pdf file for the textbook. 1. What is Orientalism? What aspects of colonialism inspired Orientalism? How has it affected art, both in terms of how the subject matter was portrayed by the artist and in the ways the work has been viewed? When discussing how the works are viewed take into consideration how artist wanted their works viewed, how the art was actually viewed when it was created, and finally how we, as modern viewers see it? 2. How important was Napoleon Bonaparte’s use of art as propaganda and censorship in the rise and consolidation of his power? Choose two pieces of art commissioned by Napoleon (does not have to be from chapter 18) that support your argument of his use of art propaganda. List the title, artist, date, and medium of each piece. Refer to each piece at least three times when composing your statements. 3. Define the Protestant Reformation and the Counter Reformation. How did these two movements affect art? Choose one piece during the Reformation and one piece created during the Counter Reformation and compare and contrast the two pieces. Be sure to point out changes in style between the two periods. List the title, artist, date, and medium of each piece if known. 4. Discuss the ways in which the movement toward Realism in art reflected the social and political concerns of the nineteenth century. Choose one piece of art created in the Realism period that supports your argument. List the title, artist, date, and medium. How does this piece reveal the concerns that you mentioned in the first part of the question? Give at least three examples. 5.

List the title, artist, date, and medium of each piece. Refer to each of these pieces in at least three instances for this purpose. 6. Neither of these works was meant to be exhibited in a museum case for an art-loving public seeking a cultural experience. Both took on their primary meaning in the process of the performance of a cultural ritual. Discuss the ways in which an understanding of the ritual context of each is necessary if we are to grasp their cultural meanings for those who made them and saw them in use. And finally, how did they end up in museums? 7. The horrific violence of war and political oppression has been eloquently expressed by many artists throughout the history of art. Discuss the political circumstances that led to the creation of these two examples and assess how they relate to the styles of the artists and their time. Who was the audience for these works? Be sure to.

Discussion 1 The rise of modernism in the late 19th and early 20th century built upon the achievements of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism and was associated with important changes in society and politics. In particular, the period before, between, and after the two world wars saw the emergence of new forms and styles that responded to the challenges of the era in a series of new “-isms”: Cubism, Primitivism, Fauvism, Expressionism, Futurism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and others.   For your initial post, choose one artwork from the various types of modernism discussed in the module. Identify the style of the piece and discuss why and how it fits into its particular “-ism.” In what ways does the piece respond to the challenges of its day? How does the artist use the art to engage the issues that concern him or her? How is this art different from the 19th-century movements that preceded it?   100 -150 words Discussion2 The postmodern world of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century (and the art created in it) reflected on previous styles and eras and challenged almost everything that came before it. Consider the different criticisms and challenges postmodern artists and thinkers raised with reference to the art and ideas of previous generations.   In your initial post, select a work of art in any form (visual art, literature, music, performance) from the postmodern era. What ideas, beliefs, or perceptions does that work ask us to question? What “old” ways of thinking is your work trying to push aside? How? Do you think the work you chose is successful in challenging the ideas of the past? Why or why not? 100 -150 words In your initial post, respond to the following: What were the driving forces behind the three stylistic movements in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries? What ideas and inspiration do we find behind Neoclassicism? What qualities were emphasized by the Romantic style? What were the artists of the Realist movement responding to in their works?   Next, choose one work of art in any form (painting, sculpture, architecture, literature, music, or dance) from either Neoclassicism, Romanticism, or Realism. Make sure that your choice was created in the time frames identified in the module. It should not be merely a depiction of something in this time period. What are the specific qualities and elements of your chosen piece that are characteristic or typical of its particular style movement? Be specific, considering not only the visual or literary details of the work, but also the message it offers. 100 -150 words .

questions 1: This week, we look at several examples of early modernist* art such as post-impressionism*, cubism*, fauvism*, futurism*, and expressionism*. Let's discuss the relationships between these aesthetic categories and the sociopolitical* climate of the period, always (as we did for Rubens) describing and analyzing specific examples of these categories, as well as (as we did last week for romanticism to impressionism) questioning whether such categories express the wishes of the artists involved and/or if such terms have stuck with critics and scholars. How did the sociopolitical climate of the time period, including especially the First World War, influence artists? As always, your posts need to meet multiple rubrics to get quality-points (one rubric means one point, up to four). Comparison with present-day examples are always welcome as added ornament, but the meat and potatoes of your point-getting posts will need to focus on the years between 1904 and 1939 (just before WWII). Which artistic and philosophical sub-cultures (circles of friends, enemies, and patrons) were among the most influential in this period, and which works caused the most adoration and debate, then and now? question 2:As it's Black History Month (when is white history month? Every other one?) and you may have seen that African-American singing was my Ph.D. topic and scholarly primary-area within music history, I'd like to invite everyone to consider the particular presence of continued "race" inequities in early-20th-century arts and politics over the globe (as we discussed slaves in Greece and the portrayal of lower classes in the realist strain within romanticism). In the U.S. what used to be referred to as "the black problem" has been particularly thorny. Through most of the 19th century, by far the most-popular multimedia performance-form (music, dance, jokes, costumes) in the U.S. (with some popularity in England and elsewhere) was blackface minstrelsy, where both white and some black performers (mostly male) "blacked up" using burnt-cork and oil over their faces, while exaggerating and reddening their lips, wearing white gloves, etc., a disgusting but fascinating deep strain at the root of American popular culture. But this thread is about roughly 1890-1939; what are some ways that African-Americans began to develop their own subcultures both in the South (where the vast majority of African-Americans lived in earlier, slave years) but also growing in the North (particularly business and industrial centers). What are some artistic, political, and philosophical sub-cultures (circles of friends, enemies, and patrons) under cultivation in these years, and what are some leading products of these circles? (For instance, were the patrons of most black art also black, and how did differences of class and ethnicity tend to affect the terms of this patronage?) As always, be specific and avoid clichés, triteness, and hyperbole/exaggeration. Consider also the emergen ...

The Romantic period started around 1830 and ended around 1900 It was a time when composers, artists and authors moved away from the formal restraint of the Classical period. Romantic Music is a stylistic movement in Western orchestral music associated with the period of the nineteenth century commonly referred to as the Romantic era (or Romantic period). ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JoynulAbadinRasel ☕ Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JoynulAbadinR

The Romantic Era of Music

I am gone to send you the link of the electronic book. Queation 1 Please read Chapters 12and 13 and look carefully at the illustrations. Please note that there was a significant difference between the art of Northern Europe and Southern Europe during this time. The term Renaissance means a renewal or a rebirth--in this context of the styles and ideas of the Greek and Roman (Classical) past. While both areas continued to use Christian themes, the style, or the manner in which the images are put together and presented to the viewer, differed substantially from North to South. The North continued to be quite medieval or Gothic in styles, while the South (chiefly Italy), relied heavily on its Classical (Greek and Roman) past. During this period, you will see that the human figure, especially the nude, in an echo of the Classical past, appears again in Italy. The North will come to admire and to use the nude only with Albrecht Duerer, a major German artist of the late-fifteenth and early-sixteenth centuries. He will be the first Northern artist to participate in the developing humanist and classical interests of Italy. It is with this artist that the North enters into the "spirit" and the subject matter of the Italian form of the Renaissance. Describe the development of the Northern Renaissance images with respect to the use of very detailed, ordinary objects symbolic of religious ideas. Contrast that with the Classicism of the Italian works. Please address, briefly, the role of the artist's patron in the Italian Renaissance. Use illustrations and quotations from your text to make your points and include quotations and illustrations from web sites to enhance your discussion. Please follow the stated course guidelines for your assignment. Question 2 Read Chapters 15-17 and look carefully at the illustrations. In this section of the text, you will become acquainted with art of the Americas and Africa and the Neo-Classical, Romantic and Realist styles of late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth-century European works. The pace of stylistic change will begin to keep up with the faster pace of life. Here you will look at the remnants of the Classical world in the Neo-Classical (or new classical) examples, which are sometime pitted against the more intuitive, less doctrinaire works of the Romantic artists. Here, too, you will begin to look at the American works, drawn from European ideas and styles, but adapted for a new country and a new need for art. Sometimes the styles or labels of the categories of art will become blurred, making absolutes difficult to determine. I am sure that, by now, you will say, "But all periods are divergent; all periods have variants which make labels and categories uncertain." And, you will be correct. The momentum for change and for the existence of multiple ideas and styles within a specific place and time merely increases and the changes seem to be more drastic.

20th Century music era (1900-Present). By the end of the Romantic period, classical music had reached something of a turning point. Composers began to reject these traditions in different ways in the 20th Century, creating a broad range of totally new and often radical music. As a result, there is no recognizable unified sound to the music of this period, and it is, in general, much more stylistically divergent than the preceding eras of Western art music. ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JoynulAbadinRasel ☕ Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JoynulAbadinR
