and even some music but this time period was also a huge turning point for arts and sciences. This time period gave way to “a great revival of interest in the classical learning and values of ancient Greece and Rome” With many new developments of the world and lives of the people living during this time came new influences and even some old ones. Astronomy, exploration, philosophy, literature, and especially the world of art were off to new ideas. The Renaissance can be traced all the way back…

museum also features sculptures, drawings, decorative arts, and even manuscripts. While at The Getty, there was much art to observe, but I had settled on three distinct pieces of art. All of the pieces of art were Italian and were created before the 1500s. The titles of the pieces of art are Branchini Madonna, Martyrdom of Pope-Saint Caius, and The Madonna and Child. The pieces were all great pieces of art and were distinct in their nature. The art gives insight as to how society was during that…

Kieran confronts a major concern facing aesthetic knowledge: snobbery. Snobbery is a concern, he argues, precisely because it threatens the very foundation of aesthetic judgments. As a result, it is critical for Kieran to distinguish between virtuous art appreciators – whose aesthetic judgments are legitimate, and snobs – whose aesthetic judgments depend on irrelevant considerations. I will argue that while Kieran’s account of snobbery seems accurate, it brings with it its own concerns of…

In his ode to the paintbrush, Góngora describes this tool as “nature’s valiant rival” (3), as it sets out to recreate it. He attributes various functions to the creation of the paintbrush—the painting: it fulfills a didactic role, serving as “the feet, the guide, / by which the world’s law bends” (23-24). Painting also establishes a dialogue between generations: “Through you, arranged by you, / the living converse with the dead;” (17-18). But perhaps one of the most important roles it fulfills,…

Toni Morrison’s Beloved is a work of art that can be broken down with every bit having a deeper meaning. Morrison never actually clarifies who is doing what in the book, but with the context we can best assume what is happening. The distortion in the timeline, the switching of views, and the horrific scenes of human brutality, all play a part in Beloved. Morrison’s characters aren’t just made to play a role, but represent something much more, such as the love and determination that pushed many…

In addition, art is liberating more than mystifying because when I went to the art museum in Washington D.C, the National Gallery of Art. Going into the East building where the modern art was located, seeing the huge space and objects that were in the museum was relaxing. I went to the museum with my parents and they were just looking around the art pieces in the museum as I did and enjoying their time in the museum. As we all looked to the art pieces, we observed and had our own interpretation…

Majority of people consider any type of art to be just a hobby and nothing more. Turning art into a business is considered risky and unstable but, some attempt to make a living out of it and others succeed. Andy Warhol once said "Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art." (Dreishpoon, 2013). A platform that allows creativity and commerce to co-exist and for art to be business and vice versa is Etsy. Etsy…

American Education For decades, fine arts has been the first victim to be pushed out of the door in the American School system. Children need music in their life this is a bold statement. But in America the budget cuts are due to; the economics lack of money with the fine arts falling first to be cut in the United States and goes on the “not needed list.” in education. Music is needed in schools because it 's a proven fact that music and the other fine arts are indeed safer than contact…

In Plato's, The Republic, Book X, he indicates how the universe of experience is flawed, using imitation and deception and how situating ourselves toward the domain of forms prompts an entire comprehension. Plato viewed art as an imitation of nature or human life and actions. He suggests that anyone can imitate through a use of a mirror, which is reflective. However, what such a person creates is an appearance; it isn't truly there. This, he concludes, is what a painter does. Similarly, a…
