The photograph depicts a couple sitting in a cafe. The woman is smiling and embracing her partner, but their reflection in the mirror shows the woman with a different, more serious expression. The photograph captures the juxtaposition between public and private emotions. Taken in 1932 in Paris by Hungarian photographer Gyula Halasz, known as Brassai, the black and white photograph used available light to portray intimacy between the couple and raise questions about societal expectations.

AHS 008 Assignment #2 Handout Using Quotes Effectively .docxnettletondevon
AHS 008: Assignment #2
Handout: Using Quotes Effectively
For this assignment, you may cite course texts informally, using parenthetical
citation (as in the examples below). However, if you choose to bring in any
outside texts or materials, you should provide full citation information,
including a Works Cited page. In general, you may use the citation format of
your choice (MLA-style, Chicago style, etc.), but you must use it correctly and
consistently.
Regular quotes (whether complete sentences or snippets of text) should always
appear in quotation marks – except for long citations (four lines or more),
which should presented as block quotes, indented and single-spaced, but without
quotation marks.
What is most important is to integrate quotes and other authors’ ideas into your
text in a clear and thoughtful way. Rather than simply dropping in a quote, it
is much better to set it up, in order to indicate whose quote it is, to
introduce necessary information and context, and to situate it in your analysis.
Do not assume that a quote can simply “speak for itself.” After a quote, it is
useful to parse out the key terms and assumptions – and, if you choose to, to
question them.
When you set up a quote, try to avoid using “says” (e.g. “Sontag says that …”).
It is too informal, and also incorrect, as we are generally referring to written
sources. Find good specific verbs to use instead: argues, proposes, concludes,
describes, outlines, suggests, etc.
Incorporating Quotes into your revised essay will take some work. You have to
decide what is most important to you in the readings, and what points or
arguments most resonate with you. And of course, you may agree or disagree with
the quotes or points that you choose. To integrate them will probably require
not simply extending but also rearranging your essay somewhat, and perhaps
rethinking or revising your own argument or analysis.
EXAMPLE 1:
Diane Arbus described the camera as “a kind of license” that allowed her to
transgress social boundaries and have access to people’s intimate lives. As she
notes, “A lot of people, they want to be paid that much attention and it’s a
reasonable kind of attention to be paid” (Arbus, p. 3). Thus, in a portrait like
Young man with curlers at home on West 20th Street, NY (1966), the young man’s
candid gaze and gestures convey his own investment in the attention and interest
Arbus brought to their encounter. If going to shoot new subjects was, as Arbus
suggested, like “a blind date,” we feel that it involved risk and excitement for
both her and her sitter.
EXAMPLE 2:
In the statement published in the catalogue to her posthumous 1972 exhibition,
Diane Arbus famously outlined what she termed “the flaw”: “Everybody has that
thing where they need to look one way but they come out looking another way and
that’s what people observe. You see someone on the street and essentially what
you notice about th.

A print is a two-dimensional artwork that is made from an indirect process: the artist does not paint or draw directly on the artwork, but instead creates the surface that makes the work of art. Most printmaking techniques result in a series of impressions being made from the worked surface that the artist created. A key characteristic of a print is that multiple, seemingly identical, impressions may be taken from a single worked surface. The series of images taken from a single worked surface is called an edition and each impression is signed, numbered and dated by the artist and is considered an original artwork. As mentioned, most images taken from a worked surface are meant to look identical, however, some contemporary artists print multiple images that show idiosyncratic elements and a few printmaking processes - such as monotypes &endash; allow only for a single impression to be pulled from the worked surface.
There are many approaches toward printmaking and as we have seen with drawing and painting, each technical process results in specific characteristics and is often chosen by the artist so as to achieve a piece that exhibits those characteristics. For example, the woodcut print
Dance Hall by E. L. Kirchner (Links to an external site.)
is a relief print: the artist cuts away the areas of the printing surface not meant to carry the ink, leaving the design to be printed in relief at the level of the original surface. The woodcut process results in bold areas of strong contrast. This type of print has expressive qualities that give intensity to the image. The print
The Knight, Death, and the Devil (Links to an external site.)
, by Renaissance artist
Albrecht Dürer (Links to an external site.)
, is an engraving: lines are cut into the surface of a polished metal plate by pushing a tool called a burin through the metal to cut grooves. To make a print, the plate is coated with pasty ink, and wiped clean, leaving ink only in the grooves. The pressure of a printing press transfers the ink to slightly damp paper. Examine a detail of the print. The precise, smooth curves and parallel lines are typical of engravings. Thousands of fine lines define the details of the print as the stoic knight proceeds on his mission. Compare.
Cross-curricular workshop involving art and drama based on 'Antony and Cleopatra'. Students enacted scenes from the play by Shakespeare and were photographed and printed out. The students then created a tableau in the style of Kara Walker. A bit unrefined since it was a one-hour workshop, but fun none-the-less!
A look at how out thirst for realism led to an abstraction of the formal elements and aesthetics in fine art. Very general and to be used as a prompt for discussion over how technology and innovations change cultural habits - in this case, the invention of the camera and photographic processes.

Consider the materials and media. If a photograph, what are the lighting considerations? Has it been presented in a special way I.e. as an installation? ‘ Analysing an Image’ Writing Frame KEYWORDS Write down any key words you associate with this art work. Brassai was someone considered to have “mythologised Paris as a romantic capital, capturing couples, bar fights, music halls and brothels.” Looking at his work it is clear that he was interested in the lives and behaviour of people in a large metropolitan city, choosing to document it as an intimate city, although not afraid to show its rough edges. This particular image cleverly manages to convey two points of view, where the lady is smiling contently and lovingly in front of the camera as she hugs her lover, but the mirror shows another, more sinister side, where she appears to be grimacing and ‘keeping up appearances’. It raises questions about how our public and private emotions are constantly challenged by the expectations of society. In this case, the glamour and fashion of the 1930s implied a culture of sophistication that influenced many women of the day. This is a black & white photograph by Brassai, the French photographer (1899-1984), of a lady and her lover/partner socialising in a café and chatting over a drink of wine. She is animated and holding his chest, whilst he looks into her eyes and embraces her. The picture was taken indoors and there is a mirror behind them. The picture is taken from head height looking down at the couple. This allows us to see their reflection in the mirror and have an overview of the scene. The scene may have involved the use of flash as their skin, white clothes and glasses are highly reflected. The existing light is most probably artificial and low in strength with some natural light from nearby windows. There is little distortion on the face, so he has probably used a standard 50-100 mm lens Reflection Intimacy Social Illusion Deception FLUENT EXAMPLE

I think the work is about a French man and woman who love each other. I find it an really interesting picture and like the composition. They appear to be drinking wine and he is clutching her elbow, whilst she touches his chest. This shows that they really like each other. I would like to be able to take photos that are also of people - I could photograph my friends in a local café drinking tea. This is a photograph of a man and woman sitting in a café drinking wine.
