It is the idea of an artwork to lure its audience to want to be close, emotionally touched, etc. however, with reproducibility…
The art is interesting for the facts that the people who made the art pieces put a lot of dedication and time in wanting to make them look great. The first section in the exhibition is the Art and Action which is all about artifacts of how people who made them went far beyond the boundaries to make a statement through their creativeness. The next couple of sections were the Art and Knowledge and the Art and Power. The art work in the Art and power section had a couple figures that were a bit scary it was darker than any of the other sections and you just felt that the art pieces…
The Art of Persuasion Professor, Ole Bjorn Rekdal of Bergen University College, in his article, Academic urban legends, discusses the importance of proper citation to keep information accurate to keep academic urban legends from happening (639). Rekdal’s it trying to show his audience of those who have “original research on science, technology and medicine” (Social Studies of Science) how sloppy, improper citation is causing bits and pieces of information to be lost causing false legends to circulate as truth. However, according to reporting intern, Charlie Tyson, in his web article, How rumors spread via sloppy citation practices, he writes a summary of what Rekdal has written in his article stating it is also false, and debunked by criminologist. Further he also writes about what he feels is wrong with incorrect citations to his audience of those with higher level education, such as grad students to vice presidents (About Us). Both Rekdal and Tyson are trying to convey the same point to similar groups of people.…
Compared to all my other art classes in school, this class gave me more freedom while creating pieces all from the medium I wanted to use and…
Persuasion is an umbrella term of influence. Persuasion can attempt to influence a person’s beliefs, attitudes, intentions, motivation, or behaviors. In business, persuasion is a process aimed at changing a person’s (or a group’s) attitude or behavior toward an event, idea, or objects, by using written or spoken words to convey information, feelings or reasons. Persuasion, often used as a tool in the pursuit of personal gain, such as election campaigning or as a sales pitch. Persuasion can also be interpreted as using one’s personal or positional resources to change people’s behaviors or attitudes.…
Students who have taken four or more years of art education have proven to typically score twenty or more points higher in the SAT than an average student (Ruppert). Art is believed to help students of a higher level accept and realize that there is more than one approach to a challenge of a higher caliber (Jarvis and Gouthro). Some professors will use art to aid their students in understanding their works, and to allow them to come to an understanding that they are allowed to formulate their own opinion (Jarvis and Gouthro). While in most circumstances a professor may introduce a logical solution to a problem, a nice dichotomy can be formed by also introducing an emotional solution via art, because of the way art evokes many emotions (Jarvis and Gouthro). Furthermore, art gives students social commentary, and provide students with solutions to social solutions, as well (Jarvis and Gouthro).…
As I walked into the AP Studio Art classroom on the first day of my field study, I was taken aback by the vivid colors and distinct decorations that fought for my attention. Before studying the class, my perception of art had always been that it was sporadic, messy, and wild yet organized beautifully by an artist to make something for everyone to enjoy. This description fit the art classroom exactly. The walls were obviously originally painted white, but over the years have been transformed into landscapes of masterpieces by art students enrolled in the courses. Pictures of human eyes, dragons, mountains, and other shapes stole my attention as I attempted to take in the scenery.…
The six principles of persuasion and their definitions according to Dr.Cialdini in his book Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion includes the following; 1. Reciprocation: According to Dr. Cialdini, there is no human society that doesn’t practice the rule of reciprocity. This is a cultural standard that obligates us to return favors, gifts, invitations, and the like. Reciprocity allows for the free flow of business, the division of labor, and the exchange of services.…
Growing up, my parents would both work afternoon jobs, which meant a home cooked meal was rare in my home. I believe this contributed to me always going out to eat. I loved Italian food, but specifically I loved pizza. There are two restaurants in particular that i always go to; these are Pizza Patron, and Rome's Pizza. I think Rome's Pizza is better because of the quality, service, and sophisticated atmosphere.…
Being forced to interpret and analyze art, whether it’s literature or an actual painting, in school, I have always thought of it from a different perspective compared to the teachers and students around me. My interpretations, like the others around me, are unique in our own sense. Class discussions of single interpretation on a piece of artwork is absurd. The long lasting masterpiece should not be deemed one perception. Controversies involving a piece of work is drivel.…
Persuasion is my weakest skill, which is why I practiced it for this assignment. It's a daily routine of mine to persuade my partner into doing things they aren't in the habit of doing, but fail miserably at 80% of my attempts. However, today was a success because we thoroughly cleaned their car. Cleaning at all is their least favourite thing to do.…
As I reflect on my life, I realize there have been some situations in my life where I have been able to pursue someone, but there have been situations where I have not been successful with the basic skills of persuasion. For this assignment, I will explore my motivations, strategies and reasons why I succeeded in persuading my brother into rebuilding a relationship with my dad. My dad and brother’s relationship has always been tumultuous, I don’t remember the last time they had a heart to heart conversation. As a kid, I did not think my family had any problems, but as I got older, I realized my family had many unresolved issues and my dad and brother’s relationship was one of them.…
FINAL PROJECT Pulling out and looking through an Art History book can be overwhelming. The amount of content between the two covers is beyond understanding and each page depicts a different piece of art from generations of ancient history. In the past, before textbooks recorded the existence of these masterpieces, many people never fully knew about any of these great works. A complete mystery to the masses, but today, the power to obtain anything we want to find about almost any piece of art is available at our fingertips.…
This is also true in how it affects anybody’s behavior. Art can open people up to new ideas and beliefs, and artists can make an enormous impact as role models, either in a negative or a positive formality. Art reach out with us on so many levels, and appeals to emotions, senses, reason, and fantasy because it inevitably affects us more than other areas of our judgement. There are some of us who would pay to see a scientific research, but most of us are regular cinema goers, visit art galleries or photo exhibitions. They can co-exist because of the fact that it is easy to be affected by something we see, hear, or read that seems to us to be something to which…
The art of persuasion is a tricky skill to tout. It is my experience that people are ever-vigilant to what in this world is attempting to persuade or manipulate them into doing something they may otherwise not. Taking a reference from the Abrahamic faiths, persuaders are characterized as manipulators or snakes, akin to the devil. Like many of our fears there is some truth to this, but it belies the utility that can be found with this skill.…
