Besides abstract art, an additional medium in which reason relies on emotion to work is film. Oftentimes traditional films rely on action and emotion to drive their plot and besides the “system one” analysis which drives the following of the plot, the deeper analysis of potential commentary or other aspects of the film comes later. When analyzing films, the role of emotion is an important consideration to make. Thus when considering film (excluding abstract films), reason does rely…

Neither the foreground nor background contains three-dimensional objects to be modeled. The painting is simply one dimensional, lacking three-dimensionality that is used to discuss volume in a painting. There are no subjects, or objects that can cast shadows to help present their roundedness or three-dimensionality. When it comes to balance Cathedral is very asymmetrical (lacking symmetry) because…

Essay Question 1 Representational art reference objects from the real world, like the pipe in a smoke backstage and events in the real world. Abstract art is work that represents natural objects in a simplified, distorted, or exaggerated way. Nonrepresentational art presents visual form with no specific reference. An example would be Grey Night Phenomenon because it has a variety of forms, composition, and moods. 1. In Composition VIII that artist wanted to simplify a cow but still have the…

Abstraction can be defined as an art in which the subjects of a painting or sculpture are symbolic with the emphasis of specific elements including form, line, and color. The rise of abstraction varies according to each region around the world, as well as the impacts made on societies by local and global events.

The Abstract Written Portrait of Gertrude Stein In abstract art, the viewer has the free will to analyze and interpret the significance of a painting. In the same way, Gertrude Stein is able to transmit the sense of open interpretation in “Portraits and Repetition” by experimenting with language and using a peculiar way of writing in which she denominates “insistence.” She also introduces the reader to the voyage of her life when she realizes that there is no such thing as repetition, and to…

planar figures meet the eye as one physically guides his or her eyes through the space, agreeing totally with Greenberg’s assertions. But yet, through this method, Matisse creates a visual duality is created as objects are created from what lies behind, making the floor the object and the object the floor. This balance is just enough for one to still feel other cues other than just sight alone. This space depicted is in between complete flatness and 3D space. A sense of tangibility is created in…

Victor Vasarely should be taught to students of Art History 1 because he fused elements of design and the Abstract Expressionist movement to achieve and nurture the Op Art movement in the 1960s. Considered one of the originators of Op Art for his visually intricate and illusionistic portraits, Victor Vasarely spent the course of a lengthy, critically acclaimed profession seeking, and contending for, a method of art making that was profoundly social. He placed major significance on the…

It is ultimately about the viewer and the work of art and embodies such a basic essence that art can be broken down now further. Minimalist art is free of emotion and was created as a way to escape the intensity and expressiveness of abstract art. Donald Judd was one artist that spearheaded minimalism and helped to bring it to the forefront of modern art culture. He wished to create a style of art that was void of emotional illusions, since much of the previous art had been a way for…
