2 Dimensional Art The two dimensional art that I observed is called Judith and Her Maidservant with the Head of Holofernes, created between 1623-25. The artist of this painting is Artemisia Gentileschi. This was a large painting that covered over half of the wall. This painting was created by using oil paint. Artists used oil paintings because it dries slowly, the colors are able to blend together, and lastly oil paintings allows the painting to be larger then what it normally would be. The…
The general premise of the film Metropolis relies on the duality and segregation that causes tension within the film. The duality of the films animation style can suggest a metaphorical description of the separated society. This brewing tension within the story stems from reactionary circumstances due to causations of tyrannical government, militant and radical forces within the segregated city of Metropolis. Although there is an obvious wealth and power imbalance that separates the city from…
The weekly monitored return to work plan was eight weeks in length. Patariki was to start with two weeks of the functional strengthening programme three times weekly. The goals by the end of six weeks were to increase his quadriceps muscle strength, increase his physical activity, increase his dynamic balance to be safe walking on uneven ground, reinforce pain education, and improve technique and strength with climbing up/down steps. Week three he would introduce graduated hours of work…
Society has made substantial progress in terms of the acceptance and social treatment of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This can be most clearly observed by the deinstitutionalization movement in the 1970s, where individuals with IDD were no longer sent away to institutions because they were considered unsuitable for society. Rather, they began living, working, and interacting within their own communities. While this has immensely improved the quality of life…
Stylist Analysis Jackson Pollock the world renowned drip painter is often one of the artists that almost everyone knows on the spot. Cathedral, 1947 is a painting held in the Dallas Museum of Art and was created using enamel and aluminum paint on canvas. Measuring at a 71 1/2 x 35 1/16 inches, this is no small painting. Cathedral, is comprised of organic shapes rather than geometric. The entirety of the work is the product of paint dripping off of a paintbrush. This controlled chaos is…
I visited the Modesto Junior College Art Gallery, it is located on the East Campus in Modesto. The title of the artwork presented that day was “Geometries in Cold Welded Steel.” This artwork was presented by the artist Tom Duchscher. Duchscher has been teaching design, sculpture, and ceramics at MJC for the past 40 years. His work has been exhibited throughout northern California and pacific northwest. For the past four decades Duchscher has dealt with the exploration of geometric forms and has…
The artwork I choose is Pebbles around a Hole. The artist is Andy Goldsworthy. He was born in Britain in 1956. He created Pebbles around a Hole in 1987. The medium used is chromogenic print. The size is 65.5 x 67 cm. The location is unknown. The subject matter is an eye. The black hole is the pupil and the colored rings around it are the colored parts of the eye. I see it as an eye looking at us while we do not know what could possibly be looking back at us. The eye could also be looking deep…
The Path To Enlightenment There are several legends that depict different scenes for the famed Bodhidharma and Huike. One of those is the story of Huike cutting off his arm. The paintings from Dai Jin and Sesshu ultimately show this story, with Sesshu’s painting similarly named “Huike Offering His Arm To Bodhidharma.” The story is fairly simple; Huike wanted to become truly enlightened and went on a journey to find someone to enlighten and teach him, Bodhidharma. Initially, Huike waited in the…
discovered a new dimension through his visions, and was eager to share this with other places he visits. These visions definitely do not prepare the Square enough for the visit from a sphere from the land of three dimensions. At first he rejects the sphere, and actually tries to attack him for invading his world and attempting to change his views by teaching him about the third dimension. Finally, the Sphere pulls the Square from his plane and allows him to see the world in three dimensions.…
