  • Art 150: Introduction to the Visual Arts David Mccarthy Rhodes College, Spring 2003 414 Clough, Ext
    Art 150: Introduction to the Visual Arts David McCarthy Rhodes College, Spring 2003 414 Clough, Ext. 3663 417 Clough, MWF 11:30-12:30 Office Hours: MWF 2:00- 4:00, and by appointment. COURSE OBJECTIVES AND DESCRIPTION The objectives of the course are as follows: (1) to provide students with a comprehensive, theoretical introduction to the visual arts; (2) to develop skills of visual analysis; (3) to examine various media used by artists; (4) to introduce students to methods of interpretation; and (5) to develop skills in writing about art. Throughout the course we will keep in mind the following two statements: Pierre Auguste Renoir’s reminder that, “to practice an art, you must begin with the ABCs of that art;” and E.H. Gombrich’s insight that, “the form of representation cannot be divorced from its purpose and the requirements of the society in which the given language gains currency.” Among the themes and issues we will examine are the following: balance, shape and form, space, color, conventions, signs and symbols, representation, reception, and interpretation. To do this we will look at many different types of art produced in several historical epochs and conceived in a variety of media. Whenever possible we will examine original art objects. Art 150 is a foundation course that serves as an introduction for further work in studio art and art history. A three-hour course, Art 150 satisfies the fine arts requirement. Enrollment is limited to first- and second-year students who are not expected to have had any previous experience with either studio or art history.

  • Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) Picasso and Cubism
    Module: Art Theory and History for Senior Students Course Code: AVI 4M Artists like Henri Matisse and a group known as the Fauves pushed the use of brilliant colour and impasto texture further than van Gogh had dared and Pablo Picasso took Cezanne's experiments with perspective to the next level. The early twentieth century was a turbulent time of industrialization and violent political upheaval and PICASSO AND CUBISM the art of this era was suitably adventurous. We will Post Impressionists like van Gogh and Cezanne begin our look at this time with the development of set the stage for a new generation of artists to push cubism through the work of Pablo Picasso. the boundaries of art even further. Young artists were inspired by the bold approach of these artists but wanted to go even further in the use of expressive colour, and in the flattening of the pictorial space of painting.

  • Impressionism Post-Impressionism and Fauvism
    • This lecture provides a quick introduction to Impressionism, the Post- Impressionists, particularly Paul Cézanne, Divisionism/Pointillism, the Fauves and Matisse • The lecture ends with the exhibition held by Roger Fry in 1910 called Manet and the Post-Impressionists. This is regarded as a turning point and the time when developments that had taken place in France over the previous 20 years were seen in England. Although made fun of by the critics it changed the way many artists worked. Notes • The following are not covered as they were covered in the course last year. • Introduce the influence on England Whistler, English Impressionists • New English Art Club • Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) is the only artist to have shown his work at all eight Paris Impressionist exhibitions, from 1874 to 1886. He ‘acted as a father figure not only to the Impressionists’ but to all four of the major Post-Impressionists, including Georges Seurat (1859-1891), Paul Cézanne (1839-1906), Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890, died aged 37)) and Paul Gauguin (1848-1903). • Roger Fry 1 • Created the name Post-Impressionist, started the Omega Workshop (Fitzroy Square), curator Metropolitan Museum, ‘discovered’ Paul Cezanne, Slade Professor • Wrote An Essay in Aesthetics • Organised the 1910 ‘Manet and the Post-Impressionists’ Exhibition, Grafton Galleries. ‘On or about December 1910 human character changed’ Vanessa Bell. • Organised the 1912 ‘Second Post-Impressionist Exhibition’.

  • The Use of Color in Art Objectively, Color Is the Element of Art That Is Produced When Light, Striking an Object, Is Reflected Back to the Eye
    The Use of Color in Art Objectively, color is the element of art that is produced when light, striking an object, is reflected back to the eye. The British physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton (1642-1727) determined that clear light is made up of seven visible colors – what we call ROYGBIV – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Subjectively, color is a sensation, a human reaction to a hue arising in part from the optic nerve. Colors are also symbols or codes that artists use to convey emotions. From time immemorial, color has been “Light is a thing that cannot be reproduced, but perhaps the most important tool artists must be represented by something else – by color.” can use to express themselves, to Paul Cézanne (French, 1839 – 1906) convey a message, and transform Mont Sainte-Victoire with Large Pine, ca. 1885-87 viewers intellectually and emotionally. Courtauld Institute of Art, London When we examine color through the yes of the artist, their belief in the power of color comes to the fore. So let’s start at the beginning, more than 40,000 years ago. Ochre Pit, Yantruwanta Country, South Australia The use of red ochre, the most common red pigment in the world, has been used for thousands of years. Red and yellow ochre are found where the ground is full of iron. These were pulverized and then mixed with plant resins, orchid sap, egg, blood, saliva, animal fat, or honey applied with sticks or fingers, or brushes made from animal hair, or blown from the prehistoric artists’ mouths, or using a blowpipe.

  • Modernism, Liberation and a New Way of Seeing
    Art Appreciation Lecture Series 2014 Realism to Surrealism: European art and culture 1848-1936 Matisse and the Fauves Lorraine Kypiotis 6/7 August 2014 Lecture summary: The loosely shaped group of artists: Matisse, Derain, Vlaminck, Manguin, Marquet, Camoin and later Braque, known to history as the “Fauves” or Wild beasts, shared a similar approach to nature with no definitive program. The movement lasted effectively only a very short period of time - between 1904 and 1908, before the individual members moved on to other concerns – a short period but long enough to make a lasting difference to the path of avant-garde development in the early years of the 20th century. Fauve paintings stood on the edge of abstraction. They negotiated new, unstable territory – they were they essentially flat, patterned surfaces but still "windows” onto the world. Fauve pictures thus stood at the border between pictorial illusion and the kind of "pure paint" that would become a preoccupation of Twentieth-century Modernism.
