Module 12 video review

1. I chose the video on Andy Warhol & another on Henry Moore. I chose both of these videos because the topic interested me, and I was familiar with both of the people that these videos were on. I wanted to learn more about these two people.

2. In the first video I learned that Andy Warhol used a technique called "silk screening" to make it a style that he had created. This was something that made it unique for his work. He also used a lot of repetition when it came down to his art work. In the Henry Moore film I learned that he included the idea of a mother and child to create the idea of family in his work,

3. The videos relate to the readings in the text because they include a lot of information about modern art from previous times and individualism.

4. In my opinion I enjoyed watching these two films. They were very informative, and I learned a lot about each artist in great detail.

Modules 7's video reviews

In the prairie school clip, one of the key concepts that I learned was about architecture becoming a style. This was something that became natural to society, and this is what made it a style.

This means that it becomes something that is used in the everyday life.

I loved it because construction interests me so I love learning more about those things. I chose the films that I watched by random selection. I didn’t know what exactly they would be about but I am glad I picked the ones that I did because t...

Fun Art Gallery visit!

I recently visited the Albright-Knox art gallery located in Buffalo, New York. While visiting I saw a lot of very different creative pieces of art. Some that intrigued my to learn more, some that told a story, some that were difficult to understand, but overall it was a great time. There are some amazing artists featured in this gallery, and all of the works of art were beautiful to look at, and try to understand. The first work of art that made an impression on me was Frida Kahlo's self-portrait with monkey (1938). Frida Kahlo's Self-portrait with monkey (1938) From seeing this portrait I learned a lot about Frida. This specific piece of art impacted me because she had gone through many life threatening accidents, and she resulted to painting to pass the time, and distract her from her boredom. She decided to include her pet monkey in this painting, and this is something that made me think that this is something that brings her joy despite all of the hardships that she...
