  • Monet and American Impressionism
    Harn Museum of Art Educator Resource Monet & Impressionism About the Artist Claude Monet was born in Paris on November 14, 1840. He enjoyed drawing lessons in school and began making and selling caricatures at age seventeen. In 1858, he met landscape artist Eugène Boudin (1824-1898) who introduced him to plein-air (outdoor) painting. During the 1860s, only a few of Monet’s paintings were accepted for exhibition in the prestigious annual exhibitions known as the Salons. This rejection led him to join with other Claude Monet, 1899 artists to form an independent group, later known as the Impressionists. Photo by Nadar During the 1860s and 1870s, Monet developed his technique of using broken, rhythmic brushstrokes of pure color to represent atmosphere, light and visual effects while depicting his immediate surroundings in Paris and nearby villages. During the next decade, his fortune began to improve as a result of a growing base of support from art dealers and collectors, both in Europe and the United States. By the mid-1880s, his paintings began to receive critical “Everyone discusses my acclaim. art and pretends to understand, as if it were By 1890, Monet was financially secure enough to purchase a house in Giverny, a rural town in Normandy. During these later years, Monet began painting the same subject over and over necessary to understand, again at different times of the day or year. These series paintings became some of his most when it is simply famous works and include views of the Siene River, the Thames River in London, Rouen necessary to love.” Cathedral, oat fields, haystacks and water lilies.

The Value of Transitional Paintings by Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko By: Monica Peacock Abstract: Transitional works of art are an anomaly in the field of fine art appraisals. While they represent mature works stylistically and/or contextually, they lack certain technical or compositional elements unique to that artist, complicating the process for identifying comparables. Since minimal research currently exists on the value of these works, this study sought to standardize the process for identifying transitional works across multiple artists’ markets and assess their financial value on a broad scale through an analysis of three artists: Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko.

  • Picasso, Cubism, and Antitrust: Welcome to the Modern Federal Trade Commission New York State Bar Association, January 29, 2015
    Picasso, Cubism, and Antitrust: Welcome to the Modern Federal Trade Commission New York State Bar Association, January 29, 2015 Thank you for that kind introduction and for inviting me this evening. I had a chance to speak with many of you during the ABA’s Fall Forum last November. The contrast between that event and this reminds me of something Pablo Picasso once said: “When art critics get together, they talk about Form and Structure and Meaning. When artists get together, they talk about where you can buy cheap turpentine.”1 Now, maybe it is because, in November, I addressed a luncheon where the strongest thing served was sweet ice tea and tonight we are making a serious dent in the nation’s supply of artisanal whiskey—but I’ve found that when DC antitrust lawyers get together, they talk about mergers, acquisitions, and the latest FTC health care competition workshop, and when New York antitrust lawyers get together, they talk about how lousy the Knicks are. I’ve been thinking about Picasso as I’ve been researching what our world looked like in 1914. As most of you know, the FTC celebrated its centennial last September, and it has been fascinating to study the changing times into which our agency was born. In 1914, the world’s first electric red and green traffic lights were installed in Cleveland, Ohio, and the Panama Canal opened in, of all places, Panama.2 Robert Goddard started building rockets.3 The first regularly scheduled airline passenger service began between St. Petersburg and Tampa; Charlie Chaplin made his film debut; Babe Ruth began his professional baseball career; green beer was invented in the Bronx; and Europe toppled into the First World War.4 1914 was also the apex of the Cubist art movement, and Pablo Picasso was at its center.

  • Domestic Life
    ConvCultCourseText.8.23.09 jp ART THROUGH TIME: A GLOBAL VIE Introduction Whether a wooden house, a stone palace, or a leather tent, the home is central to the human experience. Art has figured prominently in domestic life since the earliest human existence, when people painted scenes of the hunt on the walls of their caves, shaped stone tools, and carved jewelry and portable human and animal figures out of stone, bone, antlers, and ivory. Domestic objects exist in many media, from wooden furniture and woven reed mats to ceramic bowls and printed wallpaper, and serve an equally wide variety of specialized functions. Yet to discover the essential meaning of these objects, one must examine the context in which they were created; where, how, and by whom they were used; and what they represented to those who made them. In some cultures, such as the ancient Romans living in Boscoreale in the 1st century BCE or the Dutch in the 17th century, painted images of everyday prosperity became an important adornment and source of pride within the home itself. In other cultures, such as the contemporary Tuareg people of Saharan Africa or the Turkomen (a.k.a. Turkmen) of Central Asia, hand- worked and hand-woven domestic objects combine utility with beauty. These objects demonstrate the fusion of functionality and good design. The relationship of art to domestic life showcases the broadest range of human skills and talents, in objects functional and decorative, deceptively simple and highly complex, universal and culturally specific. Functional objects in the home include a range of items, such as clothing and personal accessories, carpets, baskets, ceramics, hangings, screens, tiles, architectural decoration, tools, metal implements, furniture, personal ritual items, and mechanical devices.

  • CHAPTER NINE: Timelines, Comics and A
    fig. 83 Cover Chapter Nine: Timelines oil, acrylic and ink on wood, 2008, 40 x 27.5 cm / 16 in x 11 in Timelines 229 CHAPTER NINE Timelines, Comics and a Plurogenic View of Art History To a fellow compulsive diagrammer. — James Elkins 1 Models of Art History As I began applying the theory of central trope to various artists and artworks, I asked myself how it could also be employed to consider broader questions. One outcome of this speculation was the preceding chapter, where I used metaphor(m) to address painting as a whole, the novel and Christian Doelker's notion of the extended text. Similarly, in this chapter I asked myself what a model of art history itself could look like if I treated the standard timeline as an artwork of sorts, and attempted to create a new one which would embody a central trope incorporating a contemporary conception of history while retaining heuristic use as a learning device. The mere hubris of challenging traditional and current models of art history and endeavoring to construct a new one is highly agonistic. Once again, I feel this is Bloomian, yet not Oedipal. I am not aiming to utterly dismiss the timeline, as some have done, as I discuss below. In a dialogical fashion I am answering back to the calls of the models of art history now in use, trying to improve upon them by shaping a new and better trope for understanding the discipline. 1 James Elkins, personal communication: autograph in book, Stories of Art , 2008.

  • Donald Judd Was an American Born Painter, Writer and Sculptor
    QUICK VIEW: Synopsis Donald Judd was an American born painter, writer and sculptor. His work placed him at the forefront of the Minimalist movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Judd rejected Abstract Expressionism through lack of imagery, composition, and by reducing painting and sculpture to its basic elements through using natural light, simple lines, industrial materials, and solid colors on flat surfaces. Therefore replacing the metaphor with literal truth. Possessing a strong allegiance to philosophy and theory, Judd's unique perspective on art and art-making resulted in a revolutionary and innovative aesthetic that would defy conventional artistic ideals. Key Ideas • Judd is known for using a repertoire of three forms known as, 'stacks', 'boxes', and 'progressions' that he used throughout 30 years of his career. • Judd was a preeminent figure and at the forefront of Minimalism, a term which he detested, of the 1960s and early 1970s. • He wrote for major art publications as a perceptive, tough, and opinionated art critic of the postwar period. • Judd believed that art should no longer be representational nor presume to describe human emotion. It should purely just be. • Judd's work is governed by a unique combination of reductive and highly distilled geometric forms. DETAILED VIEW: Childhood © The Art Story Foundation – All rights Reserved For more movements, artists and ideas on Modern Art visit www.TheArtStory.org Donald Judd was born June 3, 1928, in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. He spent much of his early childhood on his grandparent's farm where at a young age he became acutely aware of the physical world around him.

  • Rose in a Vase Personal Project Report
    Rose in a Vase Personal Project Report School name: Student name: Supervisor name: School year: 2018/2019 Word count: 3 482 Investigating The opportunity to do the Personal Project made me allocate more time for what I enjoy doing. My Personal Project goal is to paint a single motif, a rose in a vase, in five different art styles of the 20th century. The specific art movements I am going to be inspired by are Vienna secession, cubism, abstract expressionism, pop art, and minimalism. The final product will include five A3 canvases each painted with my own interpretation and design of a rose in a vase in one of the given art styles with a short description of the art movement under each painting. I aim to achieve this goal by the final product deadline, February 8th 2019, by working consistently and effectively throughout the year. My art skills, techniques and knowledge are going to be challenged by the goal I picked because I have rarely attempted to paint without a direct template, which makes creating an art piece more difficult by not having outlines, proportions or colours to follow. In order to define my goal better and give my project a specific focus, I utilized the idea of one Global Context. Personal and Cultural Expression is the Global Context I chose to provide me with a starting point in my inquiry and later on encourage me to reflect and draw connections. While working with the specific Global Context, we want to question the nature and purpose of creative expression and explore the ways in which we discover and express ideas, feelings, nature, culture, beliefs and values; ways in which we reflect on and enjoy our creativity; our appreciation of the aesthetic (PLC).

  • Make Room for Color Field
    Library Guide Make Room for Color Field Elberta, 1975 Helen Frankenthaler Resource List | 2016 The three painters represented in this exhibition exemplify the Color Field movement, with large canvases bathed in fields of vibrant color. Each artist creates canvases that are, “lyrical and poetic, relying upon the primacy of large swaths of radiant hues, and the interactions of color and form, to convey its meaning.”* In this bibliography we have selected general resources to contextualize the Color Field movement and the artists represented as well as select resources on the artists featured in this intimate exhibition.

This website contains galleries from all prominent artists and artistic styles since the Renaissance, including many works of art done by Picasso in each of his major artistic styles. Four images from this site were used to make the documentary. Because the images found here are consistent with what I have found in my research and accurately portray the paintings in question, this is a credible source. One image was left untitled due to space restrictions on the slide.

This website contains images of many paintings from a variety of artists, including some cubist works of art by Picasso. I also used a picture of a cubist painting by Fernand Léger. These images, a total of three, were used to make my documentary. One of these, Factory at Horta de Ebbo by Pablo Picasso, was also left untitled. Because these are all accurate representations of the original pieces of art, they are primary sources.
