Alla Prima - Impasto
ALLA PRIMA - IMPASTO Block in color areas opaquely on the canvas and create volume and mass wet-in-wet. This process combines drawing, modeling and color all at once. The painting builds layers as they are adjusted and corrected, the process is not separated into distinct stages as with indirect painting. This technique is called “alla prima”(Italian for “at the first”). This is sometimes called direct painting. With this technique the painter will start with broad general strokes to get the general form. This is usually done with thin paint. Usually the darks are brought up first. Next paint is applied directly over this wet paint in thicker, more opaque layers. It is very important to keep the colors clean and the strokes accurate and decisive. It is very easy to make a muddy mess. The actual variations on this style are limitless. It may not necessarily be done in one sitting. One of the great masters of this style was Peter Paul Rubens. Wet-in-wet - or alla prima painting techniques, in which paintings are completed in one or two sessions without allowing layers to dry, do not require adherence to the "fat over lean" rule. Such paintings effectively form only one paint layer, so the rule does not apply. Impasto - Term for paint that is thickly applied to a canvas or panel so that it stands in relief and retains the marks of the brush or palette knife. Early panel paintings show little impasto, but with the adoption of oil painting on canvas, painters such as Titian and Rembrandt explored the possibilities of the technique. -

Egg Tempera Technique
EGG TEMPERA MISCONCEPTIONS By Koo Schadler "Egg tempera is a simple, cheap, easy-to-use technique that produced gorgeous effects...Yet nobody seems to know it." Robert Vickrey (1926-2011) There are many misconceptions regarding egg tempera, and reasons for their existence and persistence. A superficial understanding of tempera limits its potential. This handout hopes to dispel some of the myths. THE REASONS FOR MISCONCEPTIONS Reason #1: The Influence of the Renaissance Egg tempera reached its peak of popularity and achievement in the early Renaissance (approximately 1400- 1450) in Italy, and is notably associated with that time and place. Most Italian, early Renaissance paintings present a less naturalistic, more idealized rendering of the world: minimal light and shadow effects; more high-key (light) values; purer, less dirtied color; cooler color temperatures; less fully three-dimensional forms. For the most part these visual choices are not inevitable to egg tempera. Instead they reflect the less realistic, more spiritually oriented medieval perspective still present in early 1400s Italy (consequently changed by the Renaissance). Because most of these paintings were done in egg tempera, people presume the medium (rather than the culture and its thinking) accounts for this aesthetic. Misconceptions also arise from egg tempera’s association with Italian Renaissance working methods. Masters and guilds taught a successful but prescribed way of developing a painting. Its not the only way to work in tempera, but often is presented as such. Reason #2: Egg Tempera’s Disappearance Renaissance artists aspired to increasing realism in images. Oil painting has advantages (described in Misconception #7) over tempera in depicting the material world and, by the late 1400s, oil became the predominate medium of the Renaissance. -
Digital Suprematism Overview
DIGITAL SUPREMATISM "Tom R. Chambers is a Texan with a “Russian, Suprematist soul”. He has repeatedly introduced the modern trend of new media art to the masses. He has brought Minimalism to the pixel. In 2000, Chambers began to look at the pixel in the context of Abstraction and Minimalism. And he is currently working with interpretations of Kazimir Malevich’s “Black Square” and other Suprematist forms. His work calls our attention to visual singularity, which is all that we see in the digital universe. Since the pixel corresponds to what we call “subatomic particles” in our physical universe, Chambers’ work connects us directly with the feeling of Russian Suprematism, described as the spirit that pervades everything, and pays tribute to the faith in the ability of abstraction to convey “net feeling in the work.” (Curator, OMG [One Month Gallery], Moscow, Russia, 2015) Chambers states: “I have always liked Minimalist works and as a digital artist, I began to explore the pixel as an art form in 2000. As I did research, and experimented with this picture element, I also began to read about Kazimir Malevich and his extreme Minimalist approach with ‘Black Square’. The more I contemplated his ‘Black Square’, the deeper I moved into the pixel and consequently the creation of the ‘My Dear Malevich’ project, which revealed similar to identical Suprematist forms that he created. I have focused on the pixel and his ‘Black Square’ ever since.” My Dear Malevich (MDM) (http://tomrchambers.com/malevich.html) In 2007, Chambers traveled (via magnification) into a digitized photograph of Malevich and discovered at the singular pixel level arrangements which echo back directly to Malevich's own totally abstract compositions. -
Nature and the American Vision: the Hudson River School
Nature and the American Vision: The Hudson River School “The painter of American scenery has indeed privileges superior to any other; all nature here is new to Art.” —Thomas Cole Nature and the American Vision: The Hudson River School is designed as a grand tour of the nineteenth-century American landscape, and the paintings on view reveal much about issues of national identity, westward expansion, mistreatment of the native population, and the beginnings of environmentalism in the United States. These curriculum materials are intended to help teachers discuss the paintings of the Hudson River School, in hopes that the works explored here can be used to create lessons in social science, language arts, geography, natural history, and science, among other subjects. The Hudson River School, which emerged by 1825 and continued to thrive until the end of the nineteenth century, was the first truly American art movement. While the term “Hudson River School” originated as a dismissive nickname referring to the perceived provincialism of its members, in time it came to represent a distinctive and vibrant movement devoted to the depiction of untamed American scenery as a symbol of America’s independent spirit. In Europe, writers and painters were exploring landscape as a vehicle through which to communicate universal truths, and landscape painting was acquiring more prestige as nature was increasingly associated with spirituality and the divine in Western culture. As these ideas spread to the United States, landscape acquired new connotations within American culture. The Hudson River School celebrated the exploration of the natural world as a source of spiritual renewal and an expression of national identity. -
The Early Netherlandish Underdrawing Craze and the End of a Connoisseurship Era
Genius disrobed: The Early Netherlandish underdrawing craze and the end of a connoisseurship era Noa Turel In the 1970s, connoisseurship experienced a surprising revival in the study of Early Netherlandish painting. Overshadowed for decades by iconographic studies, traditional inquiries into attribution and quality received a boost from an unexpected source: the Ph.D. research of the Dutch physicist J. R. J. van Asperen de Boer.1 His contribution, summarized in the 1969 article 'Reflectography of Paintings Using an Infrared Vidicon Television System', was the development of a new method for capturing infrared images, which more effectively penetrated paint layers to expose the underdrawing.2 The system he designed, followed by a succession of improved analogue and later digital ones, led to what is nowadays almost unfettered access to the underdrawings of many paintings. Part of a constellation of established and emerging practices of the so-called 'technical investigation' of art, infrared reflectography (IRR) stood out in its rapid dissemination and impact; art historians, especially those charged with the custodianship of important collections of Early Netherlandish easel paintings, were quick to adopt it.3 The access to the underdrawings that IRR afforded was particularly welcome because it seems to somewhat offset the remarkable paucity of extant Netherlandish drawings from the first half of the fifteenth century. The IRR technique propelled rapidly and enhanced a flurry of connoisseurship-oriented scholarship on these Early Netherlandish panels, which, as the earliest extant realistic oil pictures of the Renaissance, are at the basis of Western canon of modern painting. This resulted in an impressive body of new literature in which the evidence of IRR played a significant role.4 In this article I explore the surprising 1 Johan R. -

These artists took advantage of their worker status to learn and practice art legitimately in the Mass Art System of the time. They developed their particular style and vision of art from their amateur art training, forbidden visual and textual sources in the underground cultural sphere, and official theoretical debates on art. -
