Arts integration

For this art experience assignment I visited Emory University’s Michael C. Carlos Museum in Atlanta, Georgia on October 16, 2015. He featured several exhibits, but my focus was on the Asian Gallery. My art of focus is the Genesha Elephant, the symbol of Buddhism, displaying October 10, 015 – January 3, 2016. The Red Clay sculpture was created in 2012 and given as a gift by Joanne, and Charles Ackeman, and Merry and Chris Carlos. During this art experience essay, I will expound on the highly…

like to stray off and perform covers to songs that were written and or recorded by a different artist. There are innumerous amounts of cover bands and tribute artists that focus entirely on remaking songs from other artist into their own piece of art. This is where the line gets blurred. For instance, with copyrights on almost all records that are recorded through a record company, how do these artists legally perform these covers? If the proper royalties are paid to the person or company…

Our faith and our viewings and beliefs about art have an impact on our life that often goes unnoticed. Sometimes we go about life just letting things into our minds especially in a culture of TV shows and movies, and we are always changing based on what we think about and how we discipline ourselves. Dr. Berg’s session on Bladerunner made me think about the impact of entertainment on how we think about ourselves and humanity. Dr. Berg’s topic was Bladerunner, a science fiction movie about what…

Digital media is media in any format that can be read by a machine. Digital media includes but is not limited to websites, social media, and digital audio. The music industry is a struggling industry today. It consists of several companies making and selling music. There are many issues today in which digital media and the recording industry both take place. A major problem in the digital media and the music industry is digital piracy, the decrease in sales of physical products, and subscription…

The museum I chose to explore was the Lightner Museum located in Saint Augustine, Florida. The reason I chose this art exhibit was to ensure uniqueness and singularity in the works I write about. The first work that caught my attention above all others is known as the Palissy Style Decorative Platter, created by Bernard Palissy. The second work of art I chose to compare with this amazing piece is called the Excelsior, created by William H. Allen. Palissy was known for his incredible and unique…

viewed as a shocking breakthrough, bordering on expressionistic confrontation that remains strikingly relevant now.” This landscape was created on a canvas with oil and vertical orientated. His use of light and color is very different, it makes the art look smooth and soft, creating a beautiful sky and dark rough rock that he stand on. The use of colors and the tone look so perfect. What I love most about this artist is he is known as one of the best in the romanticism time period. It is sad to…

Media And Children: Not A Good Mix Media, both domestic and international, has lately gotten more intense than ever before. It’s known to be for entertainment and information, but mostly entertainment. In the article, “Confessions of a news junkie who hides the news from his kids,” Barry Gittins discusses the topic of mass media. He asserts that it has misguided children and parents should take action. Gittins depicts how this new generation has opened children to use more technology. He…

“Demolition”, a stilted comedy drama written by Bryan Sipe, was conceived by an extraordinary director and showcased a no less extraordinary cast that includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Naomi Watts, and Chris Cooper. Despite these observations, it’s not an extraordinary movie, showing several problems that turn it into an unfortunate stumble in the filmography of the Quebecois Jean-Marc Valleé. The latter, who deserves all my respect for accomplished works such as “C.R.A.Z.Y”, “Café de Fleur”, “Dallas…

Every film director and writer is unique and talented in their own ways. An example of that statement is a well-known movie producer in the Disney franchise, named Tim Burton. Not only is he talented in directing and writing movies, but he is also an animator and artist. He started his career in 1984; and today, he has impacted the movie industry with various unforgettable films that are still being talked about today. His unique sense of style and technique in each of his films is what makes…

The painting The Jungle by Wilfredo Lam was created in 1943 C.E. The medium used for the painting was gouache on paper, which is mounted on canvas. This work of art hangs in The Museum of Modern Art in New York City, New York. The color of blue is used throughout the painting, along with a few strokes of yellow, orange, and green. Many bamboo plants and leaves are shown in the background suggesting the setting on a farm or plantation and show the use of organic shapes. Several distorted figures…
