Realism art
Realism was an art movement that aimed to depict realistic representations of common people and scenes in a plain, straightforward manner, in contrast to the exaggerated emotions of Romanticism. It began in France in the 1850s and focused on everyday subjects painted in a detailed, factual style. Jean-Francois Millet was a famous realist painter known for his scenes of peasants working in the fields, rendered with careful attention to textures, shading, and facial expressions to achieve realistic effects.
Romanticism vs. Realism
There are two main styles of filmmaking technique - realism and formalism. Realism strives for objectivity using actual locations and costumes, while formalism uses techniques that express the filmmaker's artistic vision, even if reality is distorted. Critics debate which approach is better - realists value story over style, while formalists see realism as too plain for great art. The differences between realism and formalism have been at the core of film theory controversies.
SHGC History Of Art Part 5
The document provides background information on Giorgio de Chirico, a pioneer of metaphysical painting who was highly influential on the Surrealist movement. It discusses de Chirico's early works from the 1910s that depicted strange, dreamlike cityscapes with sharp contrasts and exaggerated perspectives. These works evoked an ominous, dream-like quality and disoriented the viewer. The document also briefly summarizes some of de Chirico's most famous paintings from this period that illustrated his philosophy of approximating a dream-like state of mind through illogical elements, unexpected perspectives, and strange relationships between objects.
SHGC The Womens Art Movement (Realism) Part 3
The document discusses the artwork "Untitled (Your Body is a Battleground)" by artist Barbara Kruger. It summarizes that the work critiques modern standards of beauty through a divided photographic image of a model's face with the text "Your body is a battleground." The work was originally intended as a poster for a pro-choice march. It also discusses Kruger's style of incorporating found images with provocative text.
Debord overview
In 1967, Guy Debord published Society of the Spectacle, arguing that images have come to dominate life under capitalism. He criticized wage labor, commodity production, and other forms of hierarchy as perpetuating through their absorption into the "spectacle." Society of the Spectacle influenced the 1968 student uprisings in Paris, with quotes from the text appearing as graffiti. Debord later updated the text in Commentaries on Society of the Spectacle and made a film version, demonstrating the work's enduring analysis of media and capitalism. The Situationist International, influenced by Marxism and surrealism, believed in transforming society by changing perceptions through disruptive situations and undermining consumer culture. Though the group disbanded in 1972,

The document discusses several feminist artists from the 1960s-1980s including Judy Chicago, Miriam Schapiro, and Barbara Kruger. It summarizes Judy Chicago's 1983 Birth Project which involved over 130 needleworkers collaborating to create images of birth. It also discusses Schapiro's use of textiles and domestic crafts to highlight women's roles and experiences, as well as her co-founding of the feminist art program with Chicago. Kruger is noted for combining found photography with bold text to critique media images and cultural forces that shape gender roles.
Coffee with a Curator: "Photography and Surrealism"
The document discusses the relationship between surrealism and photography, outlining how surrealist photographers used techniques like double exposure, solarization, and montage to create dreamlike and ambiguous images that blurred the boundaries between reality and imagination. It profiles many pioneering surrealist photographers like Man Ray, Lee Miller, Eugene Atget, and Hans Bellmer and explores the major themes their work explored, such as eroticism, madness, hysteria, and the marvelous.
Neo realismo
In the aftermath of WWII, the Neorealismo film movement in Italy aimed to portray social and economic realities in a raw, unvarnished style. Directors like Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio de Sica, and Luchino Visconti filmed on location using non-professional actors and simple visual techniques. Their films provided a stark contrast to the glamorous productions of the previous Fascist era. Neorealismo works sought to involve viewers directly in the difficulties facing many postwar Italians and shed light on issues like poverty, urbanization, and the human condition. The movement reflected a desire to rediscover filmmaking and capture reality authentically through the camera's eye.

Art history 20th century modern art
Perhaps the most solid background to the creation of abstract art can be dated back to the
modernism abstraction which occurred during the early 20th Century. At the time, abstract art
coded modernism because of its nature to deviate from the mainstream developed and
established forms of art. During the 1960s there was more emergence of abstract expressionism
and this subsequently led to its boom in comparison to the contemporary painting of a hard edge
design. Color field paintings as well as certain sculptures of abstract nature also came into the
picture and were mainly pioneered by critics like Greenberg (Press). Elements like Manet
attracted tremendous contributions at the time to portray the various nuances of pictures and
paintings during that period of time.

Coffee with a Curator: "Dali, Sculpture and the Surrealist Object"
Coffee with a Curator - Peter Tush: “Dali, Sculpture and the Surrealist Object”
June 7, 2017
Coffee with a Curator is a focused, theme-oriented presentation on a variety of Dali-related topics. The talk is presented by one of The Dali Museum’s Curatorial/Education team or an invited speaker.
Dali, Sculpture and the Surrealist Object
In response to the current Eduardo Chillida exhibition, this talk examines the Surrealist Object, Surrealism’s anti-sculptural project that preceded Chillida’s generation and its approach to sculpture. Curator of Education Peter Tush will explore the wildly inventive and symbolic approach the surrealists brought to their construction of three dimensional objects. The concept of the Surrealist Object was developed over time by various figures including Surrealist leader André Breton, Alberto Giacometti and Salvador Dali. The Surrealist Object was a new form of sculpture using assemblage to reconfigured mass-produced objects. They sought to create symbolic objects that could address the creator’s desires and enable access to the unconscious. Surrealist Objects were deliberately anti-aesthetic, poetic, and often designed to provoke the viewer. Artists discussed include Marcel Duchamp, Giacometti, Dali, Meret Oppenheim, Joan Miro and others.

Artists discussed include Marcel Duchamp, Giacometti, Dali, Meret Oppenheim, Joan Miro and others.

Contemporary art photography and pornography
This document discusses the relationship between contemporary art photography and pornography. It explores how the boundaries between the two have blurred over time as social and cultural views have changed. Contemporary art photographs often contain nude or erotic images that could be considered pornographic out of their artistic context. The document examines several historical examples of artworks that pushed boundaries and were initially criticized but are now seen as masterpieces. It concludes that an image becomes pornography when it loses aesthetic, emotional, and intellectual elements and focuses solely on sexual simulation. The growing acceptance of nudity and sexuality in art has widened the scope of what can be perceived as an art object.
Andy Warhol Sixty Last Suppers.pdf
This document provides context about Andy Warhol's series of paintings called "Last Suppers" from the mid-1980s. It discusses how Warhol created over 100 paintings based on Leonardo da Vinci's famous "The Last Supper". The paintings came at a time when the AIDS epidemic was affecting Warhol's community. The document analyzes Warhol's two styles in the series - one closely replicating da Vinci's original, the other combining hand-painted images with logos and text. It suggests the paintings provide commentary on suffering through repetition and symbols.
Photography out of conceptual (pop & minimal, and performance) art
This document discusses the rise of photography as a central medium in contemporary art from the 1970s onward. It provides examples of conceptual, performance, appropriation, and documentary photography that moved the medium from the margins to the center of art. The examples show how photography was used to document ephemeral works, challenge notions of originality, engage with mass media and popular culture, and address social and political issues.
Surrealist paintings -_schwappach
The document summarizes and analyzes five surrealist paintings from the early 20th century. It describes Salvador Dali's Illuminated Pleasures and Metamorphosis of Narcissus, focusing on their dreamlike and anxiety-provoking imagery. It also discusses Peter Blume's South of Scranton, Wifredo Lam's The Jungle, and Yves Tanguy's Through Birds, through Fire, but Not through Glass, noting their illogical and fantastical arrangements inspired by the subconscious.
Orderandordisorder 140202124753-phpapp01
There are many starting points for exploring order and disorder in art, including people, places, the natural world, objects, activities, and imagination. The document provides examples of artists who have worked with these themes, such as Picasso's Guernica which shows the tragedies of war, Andy Goldsworthy who incorporates natural materials, and M.C. Escher who created impossible structures. The goal is to think broadly about possible ideas and be open-minded when considering how different artists have interpreted order and disorder through their work.
Fine art and existentialism
Many 20th century artists explored existentialist themes in their work as a response to how industrialization had changed society and humanity's place in the world. Notable artists who reflected existentialist ideas include Cézanne through his simplified forms, Van Gogh through themes of emptiness and isolation in works like "Night Cafe", and Picasso in his depiction of the horror of war in "Guernica". Overall, existentialist art emphasizes the individual experience in a world that can be hostile or indifferent.

Consumer culture
The document discusses postmodernism in art, specifically focusing on pop art and its relationship to consumer culture. It introduces Andy Warhol's Brillo Box from 1969 and discusses how pop art challenged previous definitions of art by appropriating images and objects from popular culture and mass media. The emergence of pop art coincided with the increasing commercialization of the art world. Theorists like Arthur Danto and Jean Baudrillard explored how pop art blurred the lines between art and everyday objects through the use of symbols and simulations.
UVC100Summer16_WedJune8
This document discusses the evolution of modern art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It explores how modern art shifted from traditional subject matter and styles with the rise of photography. Artists experimented with abstraction, collage, found objects, and non-representational forms. Figurative works also simplified forms and blurred spatial relationships. Artists questioned the definition of art and increasingly focused on the material aspects of painting over representation. Modern art reflected the technological changes and uncertainties of the time.

Types of characters
This document discusses different types of characters in literature and film. It describes how characters can be flat or round, major or minor, and how they can serve various functions like protagonists, antagonists, foils, witnesses and confidants. It also discusses character development and change, explaining the continuum between static and dynamic characters and how much a character should change over the course of a story to be considered well-developed.
Types of Characters in Film
The document discusses character arcs, which describe the emotional change or development of a character over the course of a story. A character typically begins with a certain viewpoint that changes due to events in the narrative. Examples are provided of characters who transform from misogynistic to empathetic or carefree to traumatized. Character arcs are driven by inner conflicts that mirror the story's outer conflicts and keep the narrative tension high. Effective character arcs involve a character gradually overcoming a personal flaw or limitation through the rising and falling action of the plot.
Thury chapter 02photos
This document summarizes two works of art related to the ancient Greek poet Homer and Roman poet Ovid. It describes a 2nd century BCE bust of Homer that depicts him as old but vital, reflecting the power of his writings. It also analyzes Diego Velazquez's 17th century painting "The Tapestry Weavers" which depicts the complex interactions between weavers, their audience and the characters in the tapestry, reflecting the layered stories and relationships found in Ovid's work.
Chapter02 Intro to Myth
This document discusses how different fields study myths, including psychology, sociology, anthropology, folklore studies, history, archaeology, science, philosophy and art. It also outlines some key characteristics of oral myths and written myths. Oral myths often use repetition, have an abundance of names and titles, and use a paratactic style of storytelling. Written myths are shaped by the author's literary frame and goals, and later authors often rationalize oral myths by making them seem more logical and less confusing.
Lynn Myth Chapter01
This chapter provides an overview of what mythology is and is not. It defines mythology as stories that are important to a particular culture and reflect that culture's values. These stories can provide insights into aspects of the culture such as history, social structures, human psychology and limitations. While myths may contain outdated science, they represent fundamental truths for the societies that created them. The chapter uses the myth of the Trojan War as an example and analyzes what historical, anthropological and other insights can be gained from it.

- 1. Andy Warhol, Botticelli’s Venus, from details of Renaissance paintings, 1984 (left). Botticelli, The Birth of Venus (detail; right). We have juxtaposed detail from Botticelli’s Venus with a modern version of the image. There is no need to prefer one rendering over the other: the meaning of each image is different. Each artist presents an artistic response to mythology. In this book, we are dedicated to demonstrating the effect of mythology on modern as well as traditional sensibilities.
- 2. Marc Chagall, The Creation of Man, 1956–1958. Marc Chagall’s 20th-c. painting captures a modern vision of the mystery and drama of creation. For more on creation stories, see Part 2, p. 25.
- 3. Genesis Frontispiece Depicting the Creation. This 16th-c. illustration shows the artist’s vision of the world as it was being created. Compare with Chagall on p. 4.
- 4. Alligator, the 1980 horror movie by John Sayles, represents one instance of the urban legend about alligators in the sewers.
- 5. Samuel Narh Nartey, Nokia Cell Phone Coffin. 2007. Since the mid-1950’s, fantasy coffins have been used in Ghana to tell a story about a person’s life. The shape of this coffin, produced for gallery use, reflects the importance of cell phone communication throughout Africa. Compare the “wallpaper” of the screen with Michelangelo’s painting on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, p. 58.
