Louis Niemann Research Paper

Improved Essays
You won’t find a single person on this planet who has gotten off a plane without a major grievance to be sympathized over. That’s exactly this artist has done, in his own, humorous way.

Christoph Niemann is a doodle aficionado and his a well established illustrator and author. His work has appeared on the covers The New Yorker, Time, Wired, The New York Times Magazine and American Illustration. As illustrious as his career has been so far, Niemann still enjoys making fun and smart drawings from the simplest of everyday objects and calls them “Sunday Sketches”.

The sketches have an original touch which can only be Christoph Niemann’s - simple scrawling handwriting verbalizing clever anecdotes on his plane ride accompanied by rough sketches.

    Art is like a window to the mind, representing how one thinks or what one feels. In some cases, it may contain elements from one’s unconscious; elements that even they are not aware of themselves. Art has zero qualifications, allowing it to be crafted by anyone and everyone, while still containing components of its creator and provoking feelings in its spectators. (Rustin, 2008) Of the pieces involved in the Best of the Season exhibit at the Webber Gallery, Lunch With Einstein by David D’Alessandris is one of the more “unusual” pieces. It contains four figures, whose heads seem to be taken from elsewhere and pasted onto their bodies.…

He read about graphic artists such as Frans Masereel and discussions of making the Great American Novel in comics.…

    The traditional view of art has changed over time just as most things have. Naturally, the act of perception has differed opinions on what society considers as art. Dance, paintings, photography, drawings, music, literature, and sculpting, are what comes to mind when contemplating the aspects of art. The limitation to defining a word so opinionated leaves out room for self-expression. The traditional ideas of what is considered art should be broadened; granted, although not tangible, art can be seen through ambitions, emotions, and expression through appearances when not limited to the customary definition.…
