Using Art Criticism to Engage Students in Writing
Using Art Criticism to Engage Students in Writing Allen Trent and Pete Moran University of Wyoming Abstract: This article describes using art criticism, a process the authors define as “viewing, thinking, talking, and writing about art,” to engage students in writing. The authors provide theoretical support for art criticism in education, describe the process, and share ways it can be used to address Common Core writing and other content area standards. They also share a sample art criticism lesson taught to fourth graders and include a summary of student learning data documenting student engagement and learning aligned with targeted standards. The article ends with suggestions for using art criticism, finding and using accessible art criticism resources, and integrating art criticism writing with other content areas. “I know what it is. Art criticism is writin’ bad stuff about people’s art!” This response was from a fourth grader, but we have heard similar responses from many students and teachers over the years. While logical, especially considering the common meaning of “criticism,” it is a misconception. Barrett, an art criticism theorist who has devoted his career to translating the process into educational contexts, explains that art criticism is a generally positive endeavor. Critics write about art “because they love it and see it as a valuable phenomenon in the world… Critics do not always agree with the art that is made, but they enjoy thinking about it” (Barrett, 2000, p. 2). Art criticism is the process of viewing, thinking, talking, and writing about art, and as teachers, we have found using the process to be a positive, effective way to engage students in meaningful conversations and writing.

Visual Cognition and Aesthetics of Painting Layout:An Analysis Based on Event Related Potential Signals
Revista Argentina de Clínica Psicológica 2020, Vol. XXIX, N°2, 957-962 957 DOI: 10.24205/03276716.2020.334 VISUAL COGNITION AND AESTHETICS OF PAINTING LAYOUT: AN ANALYSIS BASED ON EVENT RELATED POTENTIAL SIGNALS Defeng Song*, Meixin Li Abstract In recent years, visual aesthetics, especially the painting aesthetics, has become a hot topic in aesthetic research. However, asesthetic psychologists have not paid enough attention to the layout of paintings. Therefore, this paper explores the aesthetic psychological mechanism of painting layout based on event related potential (ERP) signals. With eight paintings as the stimuli, the ERP signals of subjects were measured and analyzed to reveal their psychological mechanism in the appreciation of painting layout. The results show that, during the aesthetic process, the left and right brain regions differ greatly in the ERP activities, and the ERP waveforms reflect the subjective preferences; the subjects majoring in art pay high attention to the layout of the entire painting, and have strong ERP signals for paintings with aesthetic regularity. The research results shed new light on the visual cognition and aesthetics of works of art. Key words: Event Related Potential (ERP) Signals, Aesthetics, Psychological Mechanism, Layout.

The Art of Seeing and Painting
THE ART OF SEEING AND PAINTING Stephen Grossberg* Department of Cognitive and Neural Systems and Center of Excellence for Learning in Education, Science, and Technology Boston University 677 Beacon Street, Boston, MA 02215 Phone: 617-353-7858/7857 Fax: 617-353-7755 Email:[email protected] Submitted: November, 2006 Technical Report CAS/CNS-2006-011 All correspondence should be addressed to Professor Stephen Grossberg *Supported in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF SBE-0354378) and the office of Naval Research (ONR N00014-01-1-0624). Abstract The human urge to represent the three-dimensional world using two-dimensional pictorial representations dates back at least to Paleolithic times. Artists from ancient to modern times have struggled to understand how a few contours or color patches on a flat surface can induce mental representations of a three-dimensional scene. This article summarizes some of the recent breakthroughs in scientifically understanding how the brain sees that shed light on these struggles. These breakthroughs illustrate how various artists have intuitively understand paradoxical properties about how the brain sees, and have used that understanding to create great art. These paradoxical properties arise from how the brain forms the units of conscious visual perception; namely, representations of three- dimensional boundaries and surfaces. Boundaries and surfaces are computed in parallel cortical processing streams that obey computationally complementary properties. These streams interact at multiple levels to overcome their complementary weaknesses and to transform their complementary properties into consistent percepts. The article describes how properties of complementary consistency have guided the creation of many great works of art.

Clement Greenberg “Modernist Painting”*
Summary: Clement Greenberg “Modernist Painting”* The Definition of “Modernism” Greenberg’s concern in this essay is to argue that there is a logic to the development of modern- ist art and, in particular, modernist painting. He identifies the essence of Modernism as “the use of the characteristic methods of a discipline to criticize the discipline itself—not in order to subvert it, but to entrench it more firmly in its area of competence”. (85) It is the intensification of a self- critical tendency that began with the eighteenth-century German philosopher Immanuel Kant. “Modernism”, Greenberg tells us, “criticizes from the inside [rather than from the outside], through the procedures themselves of that which is being criticized.” (Ibid.) This starting point has impor- tant implications for the thesis of autonomy. [See the handout on Clive Bell: “The Aesthetic Hy- pothesis”.] Self-Justification According to Greenberg, every “formal social activity” requires a rational justification, i.e. there must be reasons given to justify a particular activity. Without this justification, the activity in ques- tion (e.g. painting, philosophy, physics, poetry, mathematics, etc.) is discredited and weakened. Many take the view that this is what happened with religion. Post-Enlightenment art (i.e. roughly speaking, art produced after the Eighteenth Century) was at once in precisely this situation of needing a justification. Thus, it was called upon to establish its own autonomy by means of a “deduction”, i.e. an argument for its legitimacy and its capacity to provide us with experience that cannot be obtained through any other art or social practice.

Maritime Romanticism Created by Jake Tedesco January, 2021
2020 2021 Maritime Romanticism Created by Jake Tedesco January, 2021 Motivation Inspired by the artwork of Ivan Aivazovsky, students will be introduced to his maritime painting and the Romantic movement in art. In this project, students will draw a sailing ship, by following step-by- step instructions to create a vessel much like those that made the great oceans passable for exploration, transportation, and trade. In order to intensify the drawing composition, students will apply color by layering transparent washes of watercolor paints. Student Objectives • Introduce students to the marine art of Russian artist Ivan Aivazovsky. • Learn about the Romantic art movement. • Demonstrate skill in use of tools and process: pencil drawing and painting with watercolors. Historical and Cultural Connections The Romantic movement (or Romanticism) was an artistic, intellectual, and literary movement that spread throughout Europe at the end of the 18th century and was in its height during the mid 1800’s. It was considered a direct response to the Industrial Revolution. The movement focused on intense emotion as a source of inspiration. During this time, water was “left to speak for itself; the weather would play a huge part in what emotions were experienced from viewing a painting. “ For example, the sea could be depicted in many different ways. It could be painted as rough, stormy, dark, or calm, etc. Each of these evoking a different viewer experience. Ivan Aviazovsky (1817-1900) was a Romantic painter considered one of the greatest Marine artists in history. Born to an Armenian family living on the Black Sea, he later traveled to Europe.

The debate that endures surrounds the nature of the relationship (direct, indirect, or inverse?) and the artist’s role in shaping it, as a deliberate political actor or a medium of social-historical forces. Patricia Leighten’s new book, The Liberation of Painting: Modernism and Anarchism in Avant-Guerre Paris, is an absorbing and scholarly study that shows all of these possibilities in play, sometimes in the case of one artist’s oeuvre. Leighten zealously argues for a more politicized, historicized account of modernist painting by focusing on a group of artists with documented ties to the anarchist movement.

Purposes of Art
Purposes of Art Why do people create visual art? What is it used for? Why is it valued? Art plays different roles in different situations. There are five purposes for visual art: Ceremonial, Artistic Expression, Narrative, Functional and Persuasive. Ceremonial -Ceremonial art is made to celebrate or commemorate something important in the culture, in ritual or worship, or in Ex. “The Last Supper” personal life. By Leonardo Da Vinci Ceremonial continued Public art that is ceremonial in nature includes statues of events or people, often of historical relevance. The Vietnam Memorial and other structures and sculptural objects in the nation’s capital are examples. “Washington Crossing the Delaware” Emmanuel Leutze 1851 NARRATIVE Narrative art tells a story or makes a point. Some communities commission narrative murals for buildings or walls to depict stories from local history. Narrative art describes or illustrates experiences, documents important or historical events, Notice all the action in this narrative painting by Pieter or communicates Bruegel called “The Peasant Wedding” ideas or information. ARTISTIC EXPRESSION Art created for Artistic Expression focuses on the artist most of all, for it is a self-expression of the artist’s personal, internal emotions, feelings, experiences or ideas. This type of art is “The Masters of Augusta” by Rick Rush, sometimes, but not 1997 always, abstract or non- objective. FUNCTIONAL Functional art seeks to beautify objects that are useful in everyday life. Many of the objects we use – including pottery, quilts, baskets, furniture (serve a useful purpose) but are also designed or Southwest Indian Pottery decorated in a way that is artistically pleasing.
