    Entr’Acte is an early avant-garde film produced by Erik Satie and Rene Clair. In this film, two artists integrated repetitive moving image with one melody, which kept coming back, and they diffused their attitude of life into the entire production. Absurdity and repetition play extremely important roles in Entr’Acte, that both of the characteristics not only reconcile one foundational structure of the film, but also create hierarchical variations in either visual aspect or auditory aspect. Repetition in Entr’Acte builds up the fundamental structure rather than confuse the audience. Some scenes are repetitive like the overlapping architecture, ballet dancing, roller coaster.…

    Amongst the variety of selective works from our readings, my attention was particularly drawn to the work of Jeff Thomas. The piece titled, “Culture Revolution” left a key interest in where my attention was drawn. The photograph brings a tense feeling and draws the viewer’s attention to the details amongst the figure in it. When looking at the photograph, there is a sense of wonder to it. Jeff Thomas gives his audience a way to wonder what the meaning behind the photo is; while it seems as if the artist is trying to understand that as well.…

    Tom Wolfe’s “In Our Time” uses drawings along with stories to illustrate life in the 1970’s transitioning into the 80’s. Wolfe uses his illustrations to show different types of people, events, and interactions that take place in the daily life of people in the 70’s. His artwork shows the shifting morals in the 70’s in examples like “The Birds and the Bees”, “Boyhood Dreams”, “ The Evolution of the Species”, and “The Modern Mother.” The fact that he is using his art to express the shift in society shows the evolution of art. His collection of work could be described as political cartoons; they are very opinionated and the writings accompanying the drawings are emotional.…

    Writers and artists share this trait: they must be as exposed and transparent as their hearts will allow if they want to connect with and inspire their audiences. That is part of what makes all of art’s forms so captivating and transcendent; there are few actions more deeply revealing than art, and artists of every form display who they are in their entirety through the smallest details, attempting to drag their audiences by the arm into their own flesh. I can connect to Roy Nachum’s Metamorphosis, an oil painting, through the ways in which it shows the aforementioned artist’s openness and the ways in which it shows, inversely, human guardedness with clever and unconventional visual methods. I can connect to this painting because I understand…

    For this writing workshop, I will use three critical approaches to discuss the film, The Bicycle Thieves (De Sica, 1948). Of the six approaches, I chose the “National Cinemas”, “Auteur”, and “Ideology” approaches. The “National Cinemas” approach to analyzing film takes into account the culture and national characteristics that influence how a narrative is filmed. To understand and fully appreciate a film, one must understand the historical and cultural conditions that surround it. The writer must distinguish what makes a particular film different from those of another culture from the same time period (Corrigan, 2015).…
