When people ask, “Where are you from?” I answer, “Denton, Texas.” This usually triggers, “OK, but where are you FROM???” It is the accent that apparently documents my otherness.

  • Vincent Van Gogh
    What is the price of a painting? F$160 millions (16 years ago) Is this a free market competitive price? by Vincent Van Gogh 1 Vincent Van Gogh (1853 to 1890) From a website devoted to his works: The son of a Dutch pastor, brought up in a religious and cultured atmosphere, Vincent was highly emotional and lacked self-confidence. Between 1860 and 1880, when he finally decided to become an artist, van Gogh had two unhappy romances, worked unsuccessfully as a clerk in a bookstore, an art salesman, and a preacher in the Borinage (a mining district in Belgium), where he was dismissed for “overzealousness”. He remained in Belgium to study art. The works of his early Dutch period are somber-toned, sharply lit, genre paintings of which the most famous is "The Potato Eaters" (1885). In that year van Gogh went to Antwerp where he discovered the works of Rubens and purchased many Japanese prints. 2 His life In 1886 he went to Paris to join his brother Théo, the manager of Goupil's gallery. In Paris, van Gogh studied with Cormon, inevitably met Pissarro, Monet, and Gauguin, and began to lighten his very dark palette and to paint in the short brushstrokes of the Impressionists. His nervous temperament made him a difficult companion and night-long discussions combined with painting all day undermined his health. He decided to go south to Arles where he hoped his friends would join him and help found a school of art. Gauguin did join him but with disastrous results. In a fit of epilepsy, van Gogh pursued his friend with an open razor, was stopped by Gauguin, but ended up cutting a portion of his ear lobe off.

BUREAU NO BR-0-I-060 PUB DATE Jan 72 GRANT OEG-9-70-0031(057) NOTE 85p.

The art reproduction sets displayed similarities based upon various visual attributes. Discrimination of theattributes common to any given set was taken as evidence of concept formation. Selection of similar reproductions in additional displays was taken as evidence of concept generalization. Additionally,tape-recorded discussions of the test administrations were analyzed. These discussions yielded additional evidence of successful test performance (on a verbal dimension) and were useful in describing the character of children's abilities to discuss the visual attributes of art reproductions. Evidence gathered indicates that students at all grades (except, possibly, kindergarten) are able to form visual concepts from their observation of selected sets of art reproductions. Subjects also successfully described their classification of observed visual similarities when discussing the items.

  • 7. Headings Etc with Properties Title
    Vincent van Gogh Summary of Van Gogh’s life Vincent van Gogh (30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch Post- Impressionist painter who is among the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art. In just over a decade he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings. They include landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits, and are characterized by bold colors and dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork that contributed to the foundations of modern art. His suicide at 37 followed years of mental illness and poverty. Van Gogh was unsuccessful during his lifetime, and was considered a madman and a failure. He became famous after his suicide, and exists in the public imagination as the quintessential misunderstood genius, the artist "where discourses on madness and creativity converge". His reputation began to grow in the early 20th century as elements of his painting style came to be incorporated by the Fauves and the German Expressionists. He attained widespread critical, commercial and popular success over the ensuing decades, and is remembered as an important but tragic painter, whose troubled personality typifies the romantic ideal of the tortured artist.

  • Adaptive Sparse Coding for Painting Style Analysis
    Adaptive Sparse Coding for Painting Style Analysis Zhi Gao1∗, Mo Shan2∗, Loong-Fah Cheong3, and Qingquan Li4,5 1 Interactive and Digital Media Institute, National University of Singapore, Singapore 2 Temasek Laboratories, National University of Singapore 3 Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, National University of Singapore 4 The State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping, and Remote Sensing, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China 5 Shenzhen Key Laboratory of Spatial Smart Sensing and Services, Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, China fgaozhinus, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. Inspired by the outstanding performance of sparse coding in applications of image denoising, restoration, classification, etc, we pro- pose an adaptive sparse coding method for painting style analysis that is traditionally carried out by art connoisseurs and experts. Significantly improved over previous sparse coding methods, which heavily rely on the comparison of query paintings, our method is able to determine the au- thenticity of a single query painting based on estimated decision bound- ary. Firstly, discriminative patches containing the most representative characteristics of the given authentic samples are extracted via exploit- ing the statistical information of their representation on the DCT basis. Subsequently, the strategy of adaptive sparsity constraint which assigns higher sparsity weight to the patch with higher discriminative level is enforced to make the dictionary trained on such patches more exclu- sively adaptive to the authentic samples than via previous sparse coding algorithms. Relying on the learnt dictionary, the query painting can be authenticated if both better denoising performance and higher sparse representation are obtained, otherwise it should be denied.

    REGUŁY PRZEKŁADU. WIECZORNA ULEWA HIROSHIGE I JAPONAISERIE, PONT SOUS LAPLUIE VAN GOGHA Mój drogi bracie, wiesz, że wyjechałem na południe i zacząłem tu pra­ cować dla tysiąca powodów. Chciałem widzieć inne światło, myślałem, że przyroda pod czystym niebem może mi dać właściwsze wyobrażenie o sposobie odczuwania Japończyków i o ich rysunku. Chciałem w końcu widzieć silniej świecące słońce, ponieważ nie widząc go nie sposób zrozu­ mieć, w sensie wykonania, techniki obrazów Delacroix, a także dlatego, że kolory widma słonecznego są na północy spowite w mgłę1. JAPONAISERIE FOR EVER Nie jest możliwe określenie daty wyznaczającej początek zaintereso­ wań van Gogha sztuką japońską. Orton przytacza list z 1884 roku napi­ sany przez artystę do jego przyjaciela wyjeżdżającego do holenderskich Indii Wschodnich, wskazujący na znajomość i uznanie dla wyrobów ja­ pońskich2. Van Gogh mógł zapoznać się z nimi podczas swego drugiego pobytu w Hadze, od grudnia 1881 do września 1883, kiedy drzeworyty ja­ pońskie były w ciągłej sprzedaży m.in. w Wielkim Bazarze Królewskim na Zeestraat3, zwłaszcza że od czasów londyńskich zaczyna się okres jego intensywnych poszukiwań twórczych, których skala sięga od Akademii 1 List 605 do Theo z 10 września 1889.

(1957). 2 Większość faktów dotyczących praktycznych związków van Gogha ze sztuką japońską zaczerpnąłem z eseju Willema van Gulika i Freda Ortona w katalogu kolekcji japoń­ skiej van Gogha: Japanese Prints collected by Vincent van Gogh, Amsterdam 1978, s. 14-23. 3 Kolekcja von Siebolda, pierwsza w Europie profesjonalna ekspozycja obiektów pocho­ dzących z Japonii, w tym drzeworytów, otwarta została dla publiczności w Leiden w 1837.
