Totem

It is really fun, I am am having as much fun as I can because next year; I am going back to the bottom of the totem pole, and have to work my way up again. The verse in the song: “We can be heroes everywhere we go we can have all that we ever want” explains what I do as an eighth grader. “We can be heroes everywhere we go” shows that being an eighth grader comes…

have provided two rather diverse masks from this region which include: A Dance Mask with Bird totem from the Minneapolis Institute of Art and a Gra from The Metropolitan Museum of Art. With these objects, I hope to provide readers with a broad overlook on the different characteristics these masks may or may not share with each other. We will first turn our attention on to the Dance Mask with a bird totem from the Iatmul culture of the Middle Sepik River. This mask primarily made of different…

reality just a dream? In The Unavoidable Dream Problem, James T. M. Miller asks the question, can know if we are not dreaming much like Dominick Cobb did in Inception? Firstly, Miller explained why the use of a totem to confirm if you are in reality of a dream is flawed. Let’s use Cobb’s totem as an example, which is a metal, spinning top. If the top does turn forever, we know with all certainty that we are in fact in a dream because that is not possible in “reality.” However, if the top falls…

I may even be considered African American. Majority of American citizens are white in comparison to the minority of black people. As the minority the views of black people are the same for most people in America. I know in New York, California and Florida they don't really have these strong racist views but that's only 6% of America. I…

Introduction The Anasazi were American Indians who disappeared around 1300 A.D. No one knows what happened to the Anasazi, just that they were once a well-developed civilization. The Anasazi grew and hunted for their own food, until one day, they were just gone. The Anasazi left everything behind: cooking pots, baskets, clothing, and food. Some say that they might have migrated to a different place because they were in the middle of the Great Drought which took place in the 13th century. Others…

Shawcross was skilled in having conversation with the prosititues about buying sex. Eventually, he led his victims to the Genesee River and murdered them. Moreover, he tricked the prostitutes thinking it was a safe date because he was a regular customer. Totem phase is the reliving of the crime through souvenirs in order to sustain the high. State polices spotted Shawcross near a dead corpse who appear masturbating or urinating (Bovsun, 2014). In essence, he came back to the dead body to…

The painting focuses on a rendition of the top two figures of a totem pole. The second highest is an open mouthed face, and the very top of the pole is a “thunderbird,” a mythical creature often representing strength and power in Native American beliefs (Gadacz). Carr travelled across British Columbia “making drawings…

The modern period was characterized by massive social, economical and political upheaval, ideals of the past were denounced and traditions thrown aside in the spirit of embracing artistic experimentation. “Modern artists represented new ways of seeing, bringing forth-new ideas about the functionality of art and the nature of materials” [wiki – modern art]. I will be investigating how the careers of two pioneers of Abstract Expressionism, Jackson Pollock and his wife Lee Krasner’s’ careers…
