Magnum opus

What is it that distinguished and ordinary bag of rubbish from a major work of art that just looks like a bag of rubbish? Can anything be art- and if so,what makes it art? In response to the question and my knowledge question the thing that distinguishes ordinary bag of rubbish from major work of Art is “label”, expression, perception, interpretation, language and aesthetics through which we start to realize the beauty of art.

This is one instance where label changed the perception of ordinary piece of art to major work of art because of “label” it was given. In similar token, the label of originality in art vs fake art is also the…

By reading the opinions of these great thinkers, and by discussing their…

Museum Paper After studying art and knowing that the field of Art is a very rich one. It is not as simple as most of people think. Art needs understanding and very strong feelings and talent to succeed in forging a piece that would be called a piece of Art. Art is like a science, it has elements and rules and those would affect the final outcome of any piece of work. Theses conclusion I came to understand, made my experience in the Dallas Museum unique and exceptional. However, the feeling of…

Just as a child cannot know goodness without a model of virtue, a child cannot know offense without an image of villainy. As enlightened animals, humans set out to reject natural tendencies and live without sin. In Steinbeck’s magnum opus, Cathy is a humanoid symbol for predestined immorality and devilish values. She is the embodiment of divine rejection and a representation of the seven cardinal sins: pride, greed, gluttony, sloth, envy, lust, and wrath (Catholic Church 1866). By committing the…
