Drawing/Painting III students are introduced to various forms of installation art as an introduction to a group collaborative installation where they will paint a ceiling tile in our art room.
Installation art describes three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space. Some key developments include Johannes Baader presenting one of the first installation works at the 1920 International Dada fair in Berlin. In 1942, Marcel Duchamp created "Mile of String," and in 1963 Nam June Paik first used video in an installation. Installation art can involve land art that links the landscape to the work, interactive art that involves the spectator, or art interventions that interact with existing artworks or spaces. Examples provided are works by Damien Hirst, Mark Bridger, Robert Smithson, Hannes Broecker, and installations by Yoshitomo Nara and Suh Do
The presentation is about installation art history, some famous examples and how it is made.

Peter Eisenman is an American architect known for developing deconstructivism. Some key points:
1. He studied at Cornell University where he was influenced by theorist Colin Rowe and examined the works of Le Corbusier.
2. Eisenman's early career focused on formalism but he later explored deconstruction and weak form, influenced by philosophers like Derrida.
3. He is known for buildings like the Wexner Center which featured colliding planes that disoriented users.
4. Eisenman's approach considers the layers of physical and cultural contexts at each site rather than just functions or aesthetics.
Sculpture in the late 19th century lacked the avant-garde spirit and was primarily used for monuments. Two important sculptors were Carpeaux and Rodin. Carpeaux's Ugolino and His Children depicts a scene from Dante's Inferno and shows his academic style inspired by Michelangelo. Rodin did not use the subtractive method and shaped figures in plaster or terra cotta that were then cast in bronze, giving them texture. His Gates of Hell and Burghers of Calais works displeased some for being too emotional and not using a tall base. Symbolism was a reaction against the 19th century belief in science, focusing on visual forms of states of mind, with themes
This document discusses the history and evolution of Expressionist architecture. It describes how Expressionism began as an artistic movement in Germany in the early 20th century focused on subjective experience over physical reality. Expressionist architecture emerged around 1910 and was characterized by distorted forms to evoke emotion, experimentation, and seeing architecture as a work of art. Notable Expressionist architects included Bruno Taut, whose works were inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche, and Erich Mendelsohn, who built the distinctive Einstein Tower in 1919. Though declining under Hitler, Expressionism continues to influence contemporary architecture through styles like Brutalism, Organic architecture, and the works of architects like Santiago Calatrava.
Expressionist architecture developed in early 20th century Europe in parallel with expressionist art movements. It sought to transform reality rather than imitate it through distorting forms for emotional effect. Notable expressionist architects included Erich Mendelsohn, Eero Saarinen, and Bruno Taut. Mendelsohn's Einstein Tower in Potsdam used organic, amorphous forms to symbolize Einsteinian concepts. Saarinen's TWA Terminal at JFK Airport sculpted dramatic curves to express the excitement of travel. Taut's Glass Pavilion at the 1914 Werkbund Exhibition in Cologne was one of the first buildings made entirely of glass, using it to provoke vivid human experiences.
The document discusses Frank Gehry's approach to architecture and some of his most famous works. It provides background on Gehry and describes how he views each building as a sculptural object that responds to its context. Some of his most iconic buildings highlighted include the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, which is clad in titanium, glass and limestone with curved and folded exterior walls, and the Dancing House in Prague, inspired by dancers Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire.
Art Deco was an international style popular in the 1920s and 1930s that influenced architecture, interior design, fashion and other visual arts. It took its name from the 1925 Exposition of Decorative Arts in Paris. Furniture from this era often featured geometric designs and materials like ebony, mahogany and maple. Notable Art Deco designers included Paul Frankl and Emile Ruhlmann, who were known for their elegant and luxurious furniture made of precious woods with metal accents. Frankl designed pieces like the Puzzle Desk and Skyscraper Step Table that featured compartments of varying shapes and sizes.
Fauvism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement known for bold, bright colors and expressive brushwork. Key artists included Matisse, Derain, and Vlaminck. Bauhaus was a school founded in 1919 that combined art, craft, and design with a focus on order, structure and minimalism. Major artists were Kandinsky, Klee, and Albers. Futurism emerged before WWI in Italy and celebrated modern technology through works by Balla, Boccioni, and Severini depicting motion, speed, and industry through abstraction.
Aldo Rossi was an influential Italian architect and designer known for achievements in theory, drawing, architecture, and product design. Some of his notable works include the San Cataldo Cemetery in Modena, Italy (1971), the Teatro Carlo Felice opera house in Genoa, Italy (1991), and the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht, Netherlands (1995). Rossi's theoretical book The Architecture of the City (1966) argued that architects should draw from historical precedents and the context of the urban/cultural environment. He received several prestigious awards including the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1990.
Albrecht Durer was a 15th-16th century German artist who was one of the first to use printmaking instead of painting to create copies of his original artwork. Printmaking involves creating prints that are copies of an original design through various techniques like woodcuts, linoleum cuts, and wood engravings. In relief printing, the areas of the block not intended to be printed are carved away, leaving the areas to be printed raised above the surface.
The document discusses various architectural styles and movements from Expressionism to Postmodernism and beyond. Key points include:
- Expressionism featured distorted shapes, fragmented lines, and organic forms made possible by new concrete construction techniques.
- Postmodernism arose in the 1970s and rejected modernism's simplicity in favor of historical references, ornamentation, and unusual shapes and materials.
- Deconstructivism dismantled architectural elements and viewed buildings as non-linear "texts" with no fixed meaning.
- Current pluralistic architecture borrows from many sources and prioritizes environmental sustainability, technology, and responding to unique contexts.
This slideshow covers two units from an art history course - What is Art? and Technologies of Art Production. It discusses various definitions and theories of art from philosophers like Tolstoy and Berger. It also examines different materials and processes used in artmaking across mediums like drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, ceramics, and new media. Key examples are provided to illustrate techniques like fresco painting, oil painting, lithography, and casting in bronze.

White Cube, Intitutions, Validation And ElitismJames Clegg
This document discusses the history and evolution of art museum spaces and galleries. It describes how early museums and galleries featured antiseptic, laboratory-like spaces intended to isolate artworks from their social contexts. Over time, postmodern galleries incorporated more open floor plans and integrated art with its surroundings. The document also examines how museum and gallery spaces can validate and elite certain types of art while obscuring the social conditions that produced the artworks.
The document discusses the emergence of new art movements in the late 1970s and early 1980s, including Bad Painting, Transavantgarde, and Neo-Expressionism in places like New York City, Italy, and West Germany, as experimental artists rejected conventions and embraced new styles and subjects outside the mainstream.

Deconstructionism is a 20th century philosophical movement initiated by Jacques Derrida that questions assumptions about certainty, identity, and truth. Deconstructivism in architecture emerged in the 1980s, drawing inspiration from postmodernism and contemporary art movements. It is characterized by fragmentation, distortion, and rejection of ornamentation. Daniel Libeskind is a prominent deconstructivist architect known for projects like the Jewish Museum Berlin, which uses its zigzag shape and voids to symbolize the disappearance and absence of Jewish culture in Berlin during the Holocaust.
Minimalism started in the 1960s in New York and aimed to remove elements of self-expression from art. Minimalist artists used industrial materials and focused on simple geometric forms and colors to create artworks that referred only to themselves. Some notable minimalist artists mentioned include Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd, Frank Stella, and Carl Andre. LeWitt's modular cubes and Stella's bright geometric paintings exemplified the movement. Minimalism emphasized neutrality and influenced later modern architecture through figures like Mies van der Rohe. Some Filipino artists also explored minimalism, like Constancio Bernardo's abstract meditative works.
Art Deco was an artistic movement of the 1920s-1930s that combined modern styles with geometric shapes and intense colors. It celebrated modern technology and commerce through sleek, elegant designs. The name came from an exposition in Paris celebrating modern living. Art Deco incorporated aspects of Cubism, Constructivism, and Futurism and was popular across architecture, interior design, and luxury goods as well as more affordable mass-produced items.
The document provides an overview of key concepts in visual literacy, including the relationships between words, images and real-world objects, the idea of representation, and the distinctions between form and content as well as conventions and iconography in art. It also showcases and discusses various works of art from different cultures and time periods to illustrate these concepts.
Installation art transforms spaces using sculptural and other materials. It is not confined to galleries and can incorporate any media to create experiences in particular environments. Some installations are site-specific, designed specifically for the space. Land art or Earth art emerged in the 1960s-70s, using the landscape as the medium by sculpting directly in nature and allowing works to change over time.
The document summarizes information about four contemporary installation artists: Maya Lin, Janine Antoni, Judy Pfaff, and Martin Puryear. It provides biographical details and descriptions of key works for each artist. Maya Lin is known for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C. Janine Antoni uses her own body and everyday materials in her performative pieces. Judy Pfaff creates immersive environments combining sculpture, painting and architecture. Martin Puryear's works blend minimalism with craft techniques and reference everyday objects.

Martin Puryear's works blend minimalism with craft techniques and reference everyday objects.
Installation art uses 2D and 3D materials arranged in large indoor and open spaces to create interactive pieces meant to involve spectators. Examples include Yoko Ono's "Falling Garden" at St. Luke's Church and Richard Wilson's "20:50" which transforms spaces through color and arrangement of objects. Installation art differs from traditional sculpture by being designed to be experienced from the outside and involving the viewer interacting within the piece.
This document provides an overview of installation art, including its definition, history, and important figures. Installation art creates an immersive environment for viewing that aims to evoke emotions or thoughts in participants. It began in the 1970s with artists questioning boundaries and using everyday objects as art. Three influential artists discussed are Kara Walker, known for her large silhouettes addressing race and history; Judy Pfaff, who creates colorful mixed-media pieces; and Félix Gonzáles-Torres, whose minimalist works reflected his experience with AIDS. The document also explores connections between installation art and past movements as well as other cultures.
Installation art is a genre of art that incorporates the physical environment and features of a site to create a conceptual experience. It uses any media and often references conceptual art, which prioritizes concepts and ideas over traditional aesthetics and materials. Some notable installation artists mentioned include James Turell, Dan Flavin, Olafur Eliasson, Kit Galloway and Sherrie Rabinovitz, and Krzysztof Wodiczko.

Printmaking is a form of art that involves transferring ink from a matrix, such as linoleum, to paper to create multiple copies of the same artwork. The document discusses the history and types of printmaking, including relief printing which uses linocuts. It provides instructions for creating a linocut print, including sketching a design, transferring it to linoleum, carving away areas to create the design, inking the linoleum, and printing the design onto paper. Creating prints with multiple colors requires cleaning and re-carving the linoleum between applying each color.
Light travels in straight lines until interacting with objects. It can scatter, reflect, refract, or be absorbed. Reflection causes light to bounce off a surface at the same angle. Refraction causes light to change speed and direction when passing from one medium to another, such as from water to air. Absorption occurs when light is taken in by an object and its energy is transferred to heat.
This document provides information on different types of paints and their composition. It discusses 7 main categories of paint: oil paints, synthetic paints, emulsion paints, cellulose paints, varnishes, water paints (distemper), and special paints. It describes the composition and uses of different types of paints like oil paints, synthetic paints, emulsion paints, etc. The document also covers painting techniques like brush painting and spray painting, and common painting defects like bleeding, blistering, blooming, and methods to prevent or remedy them.
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.
Giacomo Torelli was an influential 17th century Italian stage designer known for his innovative machinery and special effects that allowed for rapid scene changes. Some of his key accomplishments included designing the first effective machinery for quick changing of heavy stage sets at the Théâtre du Petit-Bourbon in Paris and providing spectacular productions, such as Andromède in 1650. His stage designs were extensively reproduced and helped establish techniques that are still used today.
Sound Urbanism Course. Victoria Meyers architect; Spring 2013. Sound Urbanism and Sound Ecology concepts. Presentation of UC student work from the Seminar, including sound files from sound sections through Cincinnati, Ohio. Studies Sound Urbanism and changes related to changing demographics, and changes to the urban industrial base.
In February 2004 I presented a lecture for the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) in Enschede, The lecture focuses on several theories of shelter in an increasingly complex urban environment. The lecture is titled "Spaces Between Servitude and Statement"
It indirectly pointe towards DAI's prospect to be relocated elsewhere in Enschede.
The Dutch Art Institute is a postgraduate art institute that, in 2004, claimed an abandoned industrial building in Roombeek, a neighborhood that was heavily hit in 2000 by an enormous explosion caused by a fireworks factory located there. Basically the lecture addresses on a theoretical level, the necessity of providing art students with an optimal working environment that should be located right in the heart of an urban community. These working conditions not only should be utilitarian, but first and foremost should provide staff and students with a an optimal creative and evocative envirionment.
Etienne-Louis Boullée was an influential 18th century French architect known for his abstract geometric style inspired by classical forms. He removed unnecessary ornamentation and inflated geometric shapes to a large scale with repeating elements like columns. His drawings included projects for public buildings such as churches, palaces, and theaters that emphasized regular shapes through symmetry, order and proportion to create a sense of grandeur, beauty and harmony. He also designed cenotaphs and cemeteries meant to evoke dark and somber feelings through sparse, bare walls and shadows.
The documents discuss the history of theatrical scenery from ancient Greek theaters to modern times. Scenery evolved from simple backdrops to more realistic sets during the Italian Renaissance with the development of linear perspective. Major innovations in the 18th-19th centuries included box sets, historically accurate designs, the introduction of lighting techniques, and the modern movement towards simplification and suggestion led by Adolph Appia and Edward Gordon Craig.
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.
At an exhibition of Elisabeth Penker's work at the HTTP Gallery, she presented a sound installation and performed on a geometric wooden instrument. Her work explores rhythm and musicality through rearranging phonetic units of language. Her sound installation breaks down the words "Die Bildhauerin" into linguistic elements to form a minimal composition. On opening night, she performed on her Sonic Structure instrument, which amplifies any sounds made on its wooden surface through microphones. Her work is inspired by experiments with noise and sound by early 20th century artists like Luigi Russolo.
Installation art emerged as a central practice in contemporary art in the late 20th century. It is defined not by traditional media but by the message conveyed through various means. Artists create immersive, interactive environments that often involve the viewer directly and blur boundaries between art and participant. New technologies further expand possibilities for installation works, allowing ideas from prior decades to be realized through computer and electronic components that respond to viewers in real time.

The document discusses Kira Lynn Harris' artistic practice focusing on light, space, and perception. It provides details on several of her installation artworks from 2001-2009 that aimed to destabilize viewers' perceptions using light, reflective surfaces, and spatial manipulations. It also mentions her collaborations incorporating her installation designs into dance performances and fashion. The document consists primarily of descriptions, images, and details of Harris' various installation, photography, drawing, and collaborative projects over this period.

ACTOR, SPACE, LIGHT,
PAINTING
T HE ART OF STAGE PRODUCTION is the art of projecting into Space what the original author was only able to project in
Time. The temporal element is implicit within any text, with or
without music . . . The first factor in staging is the interpreter: the
actor himself. The actor carries the action. Without him there can
be no action and hence no drama ... The body is alive, mobile and
plastic; it exists in three dimensions. Space and the objects used
by the body must most carefully take this fact into account. The
overall arrangement of the setting comes just after the actor in
importance; it is through it that the actor makes contact with and
assumes reality within the scenic space.
Thus we already have two essential elements: the actor and
the spatial arrangement of the setting, which must conform to his
plastic form and his three-dimensionality.
What else is there?
Light!
Light, just like the actor, must become active; and in order to
grant to it the status of a medium of dramatic expression it must
be placed in the service of ... the actor who is above it in the
production hierarchy, and in the service of the dramatic and plastic
expression of the actor.
... Light has an almost miraculous flexibility . . . it can cre
ate shadows, make them living, and spread the harmony of their
vibrations in space just as music does. In light we possess a most
powerful means of expression through space, if this space is placed
in the service of the actor.

ACTOR, SPACE, LIGHT, PAINTING
So here we have our nonnal established hierarchy: ,
the actor presenting the drama;
space in three dimensions, in the service of the actor's plastic fonn;
liBht giving life to each.
But as you have inferred, there is a but what about painting? What do we
understand about painting in terms of scenic art?
A collection of painted backcloths and flats arranged vertically on the stage,
more or less parallel to one another, and extending upstage. These are covered
with painted light, painted shadow, painted fonns, objects and architecture; all of
it, of course, on a flat surface since that is the nature of painting ...
Our staging practice has reversed the hierarchical order: on the pretext of
providing us with elements which are difficult or impossible to realize in solid
form, it has developed painted decor to an absurd degree, and disgracefully
subordinated the living body of the actor to it. Thus light illuminates the b.
This summary provides the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The document discusses various mechanisms of visual perception including sensation, bottom-up and top-down processing, and Gestalt principles. It explores how architects have historically used proportions based on the golden ratio and other harmonic systems to achieve a sense of beauty and visual delight. Examples of works from various periods are analyzed to show how perceptual principles have informed architectural design and aesthetics over time.
The document outlines an introduction to art course covering visual perception and the formal elements and principles of art. It discusses Gestalt theory and how artists use techniques like line, shape, color, texture, balance, emphasis, and repetition. Examples of famous artworks are provided to illustrate concepts like perspective, value, color schemes, and applying principles of design.
This is a workshop we gave in Ljubljana on 11 December 2009 for the Access To Contemporary Art Conservation seminar, organised by the Netherlands Institute of Cultural Heritage and the Museo Reina Sofia.
The document discusses several buildings designed to resemble dancing or movement, including Daniel Libeskind's Denver Art Museum extension, Frank Gehry's Dancing House in Prague, and Jørn Utzon's Sydney Opera House. It also provides background information on the origins of the cha-cha-cha dance.
Expressionism architecture final edidationYazid Hamoda
Expressionism architecture developed in early 20th century Europe as artists sought new ways to convey emotional and spiritual ideas through abstract and distorted forms. Key characteristics included biomorphic shapes inspired by nature, asymmetric designs, and use of new materials like concrete and glass. Prominent expressionist architects included Erich Mendelsohn, Fritz Höger, Peter Behrens, and Rudolf Steiner. Mendelsohn's Einstein Tower and Höger's Chilehaus used innovative brick designs to distort forms for emotional effect. Steiner's Goetheanums in Dornach fused architecture, sculpture, color and space to convey spiritual concepts of metamorphosis.
The document discusses key artists of the Early and High Renaissance periods in Italy such as Giotto, Masaccio, Donatello, Botticelli, da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Titian. It describes their innovations in techniques like linear perspective, use of light and shadow, and more realistic human figures. These artists helped establish principles of Renaissance art that focused on naturalism and three-dimensional representations of space.
