because most people know Greek art, so it doesn’t make you have no idea what is going on in the product. The reason tide chose this art is that it’s really sample and it looks like it’s with the times. The idea of it’s just being a target with the name of the product over the top of the target. The use of only three colours (including the name tide) makes it easy to remember just yellow, orange, and blue. This design has been around before I was born and it looks modern to this very day.

sculpture, and music. Andy’s works reached out to the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, and advertisement. The pop art movement in the mid 1950’s was a big hit. The main idea of pop art was aimed to blur the boundaries between “high” art and “low” culture. The concept that there is no hierarchy of culture and that art might borrow from some…

Amongst the most significant artists in history, Paul Cézanne inspired generations of modern artists and became the first of his generation to successfully secede from the Impressionist style. By emphasising arrangements of colour, and perceiving paintings in extreme abstract and geometric senses, Cezanne established the bridge between Impressionism and art of the twentieth century’s new inquest, Cubism. Cezanne directly inspired Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in their Cubist experiments, the…

Modernism in art, in conventional sense, is defined as art from the late 1860s through the 1960s, which examines current (then) artistic, cultural, and social standards. The most common of these being the task that artists face in creating works of that abandons any form of illusionism. By the 1950s through the 1960s, modernism in art was challenged through the ever expanding growth of art reproduction, the art market, galleries and art dealers, and the development of fine art education in…

“Art is a lie that brings us closer to the truth,” quoted Pablo Picasso. It is difficult to interpret these words at first glance. What could this sentence possibly mean? Could he have been just playing around with words, just as Shakespeare liked to do? This thought appears unlikely as Picasso is not a big fan of circuitous language. Maybe a misinterpretation of the original language? Maybe, but more likely not. Then where could have this sentence come from? The answer lies in deeper…

“an early 20th century style and movement in art, especially painting, in which perspective with a single view point was abandoned and use was made of simple geometric shapes, interlocking planes, and later, collage.” Cubism was, in fact, one of the most influential visual art styles of the early twentieth century. While the Spaniard Pablo Picasso (1181-1973) and the Frenchman Georges Braque (1882-1963) created the idea behind cubism, it was the French art critic, Louis Vauxcelles that coined…

his art relate differently due to perspectives as they would have to enter the scene. Gertrude Stein was a wealthy American writer-poet who purchased art from Matisse and she also provided financial support for nearly destitute artists. Her home was also a weekly salon where members of the avant-garde would meet up to trade thoughts. With the support provided and Gertrude’s literally skills she was able to attract crowds. The Bonheur de Vivre in Gertrude’s living room was also a piece of art…

Introduction The objective of this paper is to discuss how Henri-Émile-Benoît Matisse and Pablo Picasso can be seen as in being inspired by and breaking free of Paul Cézanne’s work of art The Large Bathers. Through this paper I will briefly discuss the lives of all three individuals and their influences in an effort to understand how these painters each had their own unique style. Who was Matisse? Henri-Émile-Benoît Matisse lived from 1869 to 1954, he was a french citizen. He started early…

wartime service, Lichtenstein returned to Ohio State in 1946 to finish his undergraduate degree and master's degree both in fine arts. He temporarily taught at Ohio State before moving to Cleveland and working as a window display designer for a department store, an industrial designer and a commercial art instructor. In the late 1940s, Lichtenstein demonstrated his art in galleries nationwide, including in Cleveland and New York City. Lichtenstein was married twice. He and his first wife, Isabel…

When Jackson Pollock's career began to take sail, the artist sat down and answered questions about his art at a special place in the new American art scene. Without any doubt, Pollock's work has invented a new pictorial language not only in America, but also became the newest Avant Garde in the world. When talking about Pollock, the term action painting or drip painting has become the peak of his cereer; however, such success came from a tremendous stylistic development before 1947. The work…
