The document provides a history of optics and perspective from ancient times through the Renaissance. It discusses early developments in optics by Euclid and Ibn al-Haytham in the 1st and 11th centuries. In the 13th century, Witelo wrote Perspectiva, which became the standard text on optics. The document then covers the development of linear perspective beginning in the 15th century with Brunelleschi, and further advances made by artists like Masaccio, Alberti, Piero della Francesca, and Leonardo da Vinci. It also discusses camera obscura, anamorphism, multiple viewpoints, and techniques for drawing buildings and fences in perspective.
Three point perspective should be used when drawing a building from close up by looking up or down at it, as it introduces a third vanishing point allowing the artist to depict a bird's-eye or worm's-eye view. To draw in three point perspective, an artist places vertical lines converging to three vanishing points situated on the horizon line. Examples of works that effectively employ three point perspective include da Vinci's Last Supper, Caillebotte's Paris Street; Rainy Day, and Escher's Tower of Babel. The document instructs the reader to create their own cityscape using three point perspective.
Art1204 fooling the eye brunelleschi, alberti & linear perspectiveProfWillAdams
The document discusses the development of linear perspective in the early 15th century in Florence, Italy. It was discovered by Filippo Brunelleschi and later formalized by Leon Battista Alberti. Brunelleschi demonstrated the principles of linear perspective through painting an accurate reflection of the Baptistery of Florence. He drilled a small hole in the painting to allow viewers to see that it matched the real building. Alberti then established formal rules for artists to create the illusion of three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface using one-point linear perspective with a horizon line and vanishing point.
This document summarizes an investigation into cymatics, the study of visible sound vibrations. It describes various cymatics experiments using different materials like salt, sand, and water. It also discusses images by photographer Harald Finster that resemble cymatic patterns. The document then outlines the development of a design project exploring cymatics and its relationship to concepts in origami, architecture, and transportation in Kyoto, Japan. Models were created to represent proposed metro station designs applying principles of movement derived from cymatics research.
Art and math- 6. ISTITUTO DI ISTRUZIONE SUPERIORE "G.LAPIRA"- Mihaela Ursachi
This document discusses the connections between math and art. It explores how concepts from math like perspective and the golden ratio are incorporated into artworks. Perspective involves representing 3D objects in 2D and was pioneered by Filippo Brunelleschi in 1415 using similar triangles. Leonardo Da Vinci also used linear perspective and incorporated the golden ratio in works like the Vitruvian Man. Astronomy has also inspired many artists, and modern artists now create representations of astronomical discoveries like the TRAPPIST-1 exoplanet system.
This document analyzes large datasets of paintings using quantitative methods from physics and statistics. It finds:
1) Ranked color usage distributions show paintings use colors differently than photographs, with paintings having longer tails.
2) Medieval paintings have significantly lower color variety than other periods, using a limited palette for political/religious reasons.
3) Roughness exponents of brightness increase over time, consistent with advances in techniques like chiaroscuro and sfumato.
The document discusses the art element of line. It explains that line can be used in various ways within artwork, including as curvilinear or rectilinear lines, actual or implied lines, contour lines to define shapes, and to express values through techniques like hatching and cross-hatching. Line quality can also be manipulated to convey different emotions, with thick, dark lines expressing heavy moods and thin, fluid lines conveying delicacy. The effective use of line allows artists to create composition and define forms, shadows, and values in both drawings and paintings.

This document discusses developing a digital geography of Hispanic Baroque art through analyzing cultural communities, semantic maps, cultural areas, diversity, and flows of artworks. It describes collecting data on over 100,000 topics related to Hispanic Baroque artworks from the 16th to 19th centuries. Clustering and visualization techniques are used to analyze cultural communities and semantic relationships between descriptors. Cultural areas are examined across time periods and territories. Diversity is analyzed by cultural area, creator, and search terms. Flows of artworks and cultural transfers are also mapped across regions over time. Further work is needed to enrich descriptors, improve similarity measures, extend semantic maps longitudinally, and apply formal concept analysis.
This document discusses developing a digital geography of Hispanic Baroque art through semantic mapping and network analysis. It outlines conceptual problems in relating art to geography. The methodology involves storing semantic data on artworks, descriptors, and creators. Cultural communities, semantic maps, cultural areas, diversity, and flows will be analyzed through clustering, visualizations, and similarity measures. This will provide new insights into the transmission and organization of Hispanic Baroque art across territories over time.
The document discusses Cubism and Abstraction in early 20th century art, describing how Cubism revolutionized the treatment of form and space by abandoning traditional perspective techniques and focusing on geometric shapes and multiple viewpoints. It explains that Cubism was influenced by theories of relativity, psychoanalysis, and non-Western art, seeking to depict new conceptualizations of objects rather than realistic illusions. The movement transformed painting and sculpture through techniques like collage, facets, and abstraction of form.
This document provides an overview of Baroque art, including its origins, key characteristics, and major artists. The Baroque period began in the 1600s in Italy and spread across Europe. Baroque art aimed to be dramatic, emotional, and convey movement. Key characteristics included curved lines, light/shadow effects, and rich ornamentation. Major Baroque artists mentioned include Bernini, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Vermeer, Rubens, and Velázquez. The document analyzes works by these artists and schools of painting that emerged in different countries and time periods of the Baroque era.
Post-Impressionism encompassed a variety of styles that responded to Impressionism's focus on optics and light. While styles varied, most Post-Impressionists concentrated on the subjective vision of the artist and symbolic or personal meanings over depicting the observed world. Paul Cézanne, Georges Seurat, and Paul Signac emphasized structure, order, color effects, and interrelations of color and shape rather than representation. Despite different styles, most Post-Impressionists focused on abstract form and thick paint application. The term "Post-Impressionism" was coined in 1910 by Roger Fry to describe Cézanne, Gauguin and Van Gogh who turned away from Impressionism.
Mathematics is the study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. It is used in many fields including science, engineering, and finance. Art includes activities that create visual works, performing arts, literature, and other media. Mathematics and art are closely related through concepts like fractals, the golden ratio, symmetry, patterns, and geometric shapes that appear in both natural and human-made works. Many artists use mathematical principles in their compositions to achieve balance, proportion and other aesthetic goals.
Q2-COT-PPT_ARTS9 (The Influence of the Iconic Artists).pptxchris ann noval
The document discusses techniques used by iconic Renaissance and Baroque artists. It describes Leonardo da Vinci's use of sfumato technique using fine transparent pigments that flow smoothly. It explains Michelangelo's development of cangiante technique for replacing highlights and shades with analogous colors. Caravaggio is discussed for using tenebrism technique to darken shadows and transfix subjects in light, emphasizing contrast. Students are asked to identify techniques, describe how artists influenced others, and suggested materials for an artwork.
The evolution of colour theory and the still lifeLibby Bourne
The document discusses the history and symbolism of color in art. It begins by explaining how color theory concepts like primary/secondary colors and color wheels are applied in visual arts. It then describes how artists invented early pigments and how the availability and use of color evolved alongside different art movements from Renaissance to Impressionism. Specific colors like red, blue, and yellow are highlighted for their symbolic associations and how notable artists like Van Gogh, Monet, and Turner employed them in innovative ways that advanced art techniques.
Clyfford Still's Untitled (1960) painting is analyzed. The massive 113 by 146.5 inch abstract work utilizes thick layers of burgundy, maroon, orange and black paint applied with palette knives, creating a textured surface. It dissolves figuration and represents a radical modern style. The work challenges traditional concepts of space and the sublime. It creates an overwhelming absolute space that seems to extend beyond the canvas edges. The lack of color contrasts pulls the viewer into the work's immaterial void. The piece reflects Still's mature style of the late 1940s-1960s that broke new ground in realizing modern art's exploration of abstract space.
This document discusses colour appearances and the challenges of faithfully reproducing colours. It explores colour as a psycho-physiological phenomenon influenced by factors like juxtaposition, contrast, viewing distance and texture. Examples from artists like Van Gogh, Seurat and Monet are provided to show how they scientifically studied colour effects. The document also discusses how substrate colour impacts the contrast and appearance of colours in an image. Overall, the document examines colour from artistic, scientific and technological perspectives to better understand colour phenomena and the difficulties of colour management.
ARTS OF THE RENAISSANCE AND BAROQUE PERIODSYanCabanez
The document provides information about Renaissance and Baroque art periods. The Renaissance period saw a rebirth of interest in classical philosophy and art, with a focus on realistic and humanistic works. Famous Renaissance artists included Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, and Donatello. Baroque art that followed was more elaborate and emotional, encouraged by the Catholic Church to propagate its doctrines. Artists like Caravaggio, Rubens, Rembrandt, and Bernini rose to prominence during this period. The document then summarizes characteristics and key works of both periods.
This document provides information about three famous paintings by Vincent van Gogh that depict starry nights. It summarizes the key elements of Van Gogh's painting "Starry Night", including the swirling night sky, the peaceful town below, and a large dark structure. It then briefly describes two other starry night paintings by Van Gogh - "Starry Night Over the Rhone River" which features humans, and "Cafe Terrace at Night" which offers a new perspective. The document aims to convey Van Gogh's talent for capturing the beauty and emotion of night scenes through his use of color and stylistic techniques.
Final version of the slide set for my talk at the September 2012 meeting of the UK Chapter of the International Society for Knowledge Organization: ‘The Shape of Knowledge’. These slides are slightly different for the ones shown on the day, and have a re-recorded narrative.
The document provides an overview of different types of fallacies in logic. It discusses semantic fallacies, which are errors due to ambiguity or incorrect construction of language. Examples of semantic fallacies given are equivocation, composition, and division. It also discusses material fallacies, which stem from issues with the subject matter itself. Examples of material fallacies provided are accident and confusing absolute and qualified statements. The document aims to define different logical fallacies and provide examples of each.

Martin Balluch discusses the history and development of the modern animal rights movement from the 1960s onwards. Key events include the publication of books that helped establish an academic basis for animal rights philosophy. Grassroots direct action groups formed in opposition to hunting and later factory farming. National organizations focused on welfare reforms while grassroots groups advocated abolitionism and rights. Through campaigns targeting fur farms, animal circuses, battery cage farming and more, many countries have enacted legislative bans on certain uses of animals. However, the movement has also faced repression through new laws and investigations in countries like the US, UK, Spain and Austria.

The document discusses how Buddhist philosophy can provide insights for modern society. It argues that while modern civilization has achieved material advancement, it has failed to address inequality, injustice, and other social problems. It attributes this failure to an overemphasis on external factors and neglect of the inner world and mind. Buddhist philosophy focuses extensively on understanding the mind and mental factors that lead to suffering or happiness. Modern society could benefit from considering how to cultivate positive mental states like compassion through practices like meditation, and incorporating Buddhist psychological principles into areas like education and clinical research.

The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
