Expressionist Architecture
The document discusses Expressionist architecture, an avant-garde movement that sought to transform reality rather than imitate it. Expressionism emerged from Art Nouveau in the early 20th century and was influenced by the trauma of World War I, during which architects were freed from practical constraints. Notable Expressionist architects included Erich Mendelsohn, Joseph Maria Olbrich, Rudolph Steiner, Eero Saarinen, and Frank Gehry. Their works featured organic, non-rectilinear forms meant to express deeper meanings rather than mimic surface appearances.
Modern surfaces
Modern surfaces focused on communication over space through signs and images rather than enclosed walls. Adolf Loos believed ornamentation of utilitarian objects should be removed and architecture should become a "living organism" rather than display superficial decoration. The Bauhaus school saw architecture sinking into decorative concepts and sought to vitalize building surfaces without becoming parasitic. Mies van der Rohe designed transparent glass skyscrapers to let light assert itself. Department stores and advertisements used stimulating visual displays to attract consumers in an era when supply exceeded demand.

Week12 art between_the_wars
Art Nouveau was a style popular around the turn of the 20th century characterized by organic, floral motifs and highly stylized curvilinear forms that bridged Neoclassicism and modernism. Key figures included Alphonse Mucha and Gustav Klimt. Art Deco emerged in the 1920s-1930s as an eclectic form influenced by sources like African art, machine technology, and architecture like skyscrapers. Piet Mondrian's abstract geometric style sought to eliminate representations of nature. The Bauhaus and De Stijl movements similarly aimed to integrate art and design with modern life and technology through clean, simplified forms.

Art Deco reached its peak between the two world wars, epitomizing the glamour and luxury of the Jazz Age. It transformed skylines globally and influenced everything from fashion to product design. Originating in Paris in 1925, Art Deco styles quickly spread worldwide. It featured geometric patterns and streamlined motifs inspired by modernism, industry, and exotic cultures. While initially seen in luxury goods, Art Deco came to define the architectural and design aesthetics of the era, appearing in everything from skyscrapers to plastic radios.
3 art and the cinema
This document discusses several film movements and their histories:
German Expressionism emerged in response to World War 1 and used theatrical set designs adapted for film. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari in 1920 was deemed the first "art film" and horror film.
Italian Neo-Realism developed after World War 2 and used real locations and non-professional actors to focus on reality over visual style.
The French New Wave movement used lighter cameras for "street cinema" films and directors were seen as auteurs, influencing later films like Bonnie and Clyde. Jules and Jim became iconic of this movement.

Chiaroscuro
Chiaroscuro is an artistic technique used during the Italian Renaissance to create the illusion of three-dimensional form using light and dark values. The term comes from the Italian words for "light" and "dark". Artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Johannes Vermeer employed chiaroscuro to contrast illuminated and shadowed areas through the careful application of light and dark tones. Da Vinci advocated for using lighter colors so forms were more visible at a distance with greater variety between lights and shadows.

Visual perception lesson 5
The document discusses the element of form in art. It defines form as the three-dimensional characteristics of an object, as opposed to two-dimensional shapes. Form refers to the visible components of a piece of art, such as color, lines, and shapes, independent of any meaning conveyed. To create the illusion of form when drawing representationally, an artist must understand how light interacts with an object through highlights, midtones, core shadows, and cast shadows. Breaking figures down into basic geometric forms is a technique for studying form. Sample drawings demonstrate deconstructing images into simple shapes and using forms to break down a figure.
texture
The document discusses the element of texture in visual language. It defines texture as the surface quality of an object and provides examples of descriptive words like soft, furry, bumpy, and rough. Texture is classified as natural or artificial, and as actual/tactile if it can be felt or visual if just suggested visually. Examples of texture in real life, design, fashion, floors, and objects are shown. Texture is also discussed as an element used in painting, engraving, sculpture, and photography by various artists.
Element of Art - Value
Value refers to the lightness and darkness of a color, which is achieved through shading techniques like stippling, hatching, cross-hatching, and blending. Value scales can be used for shading practice and to determine if the correct values are used in an artwork. Good art incorporates a variety of values, ranging from black to white. The document discusses value and provides examples of common shading techniques.
Elements of Art - Shapes
Shapes can be geometric like circles, squares and triangles which are seen in architecture, or organic like leaves, seashells and flowers which have irregular forms found in nature. Positive shapes refer to the solid mass in drawings and paintings. Some famous artworks that demonstrate these different shapes include Andy Warhol's Flowers using organic purple shapes, Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie with geometric blocks of color, and Henri Matisse's The Parakeet and the Mermaid displaying both geometric and organic forms.

de Beaufort AA ch22
The document provides an overview of early 20th century art movements including Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, and Futurism. It summarizes that Fauvism used bright, unnatural colors and simplified forms to convey emotion over realistic depiction. Cubism broke from traditional perspectives by depicting objects from multiple angles simultaneously. Futurism celebrated modern technology and motion through abstracted, overlapping forms that conveyed speed and energy. These early 20th century movements explored new expressive techniques and rejected academic traditions.

The document discusses developments in modernist art in the early 20th century. It covers [1] post-World War I Expressionism in Germany and the intense realistic works dealing with the war's aftermath. It also discusses [2] the origins and content of Surrealism and fantasy art. Finally, it examines [3] utopian art movements like Suprematism, Constructivism, and De Stijl that aimed to use art to improve society, as well as the turn toward more organic forms in sculpture and architecture.
Chapter 8 shape
This document discusses principles of shape and volume in design. It defines key shape-related terms like figure/ground relationships, positive and negative shapes, rectilinear vs curvilinear shapes, abstraction, biomorphism, and naturalism vs idealism. Shape can be two-dimensional in pictures or three-dimensional with volume and mass in sculptures. Integration of positive and negative shapes is important for visual interest, as is considering distortion, abstraction levels, and ambiguity between figure and ground.
Renaissance Art
The document summarizes four major breakthroughs in Renaissance art: 1) the use of oil paint on stretched canvas, 2) the development of linear perspective techniques, 3) the use of light and shadow effects like chiaroscuro, and 4) the adoption of the pyramid composition with a focal point at the center. It then outlines three periods of the Renaissance - Early Renaissance centered in Florence, the Italian Renaissance or High Renaissance focused on technical mastery in Rome and Venice, and the Northern Renaissance north of Italy which lacked classical influences and focused more on nature. Key artists of each period are named like Donatello, Botticelli, da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Durer.
Sculpture
Sculpture is the art of carving, casting, modeling, or assembling materials into three-dimensional forms. Sculptors throughout history have used various materials and techniques such as carving stone and wood, modeling clay, casting metal, and constructing sculptures from found objects. More recently, sculpture incorporates new materials like beeswax, chocolate, and Styrofoam, and new forms like kinetic sculptures that incorporate movement.
Michelangelo Buonarroti Essay
The document discusses Michelangelo Buonarroti, one of the most famous artists of the Italian Renaissance.

Posterdesignpp
This document provides tips for effective poster design. It recommends first considering the purpose and intended audience of the poster. The design should have a single focal point to avoid clutter. Text should be used sparingly and integrated with graphics. Images and resolution need to be large enough to be seen from a distance. The background color and design elements should make the poster easy to read. A simple memorable phrase in large letters should convey the main message, with smaller additional details. The design needs to be appropriate for the target audience age group. Students are then instructed to analyze example posters in small groups.
