2012 midterm exam review


Art 1
2012 midterm exam review



Artwork: A work of art, artwork, art piece, or art object is an aesthetic item or artistic creation. The term "a work of art" can apply to:
 an example of fine art, such as a painting or sculpture
 a fine work of architecture or landscape design
 a photograph, film or visual computer program
 a work of conceptual art or performance art
 a production of live performance, such as theater, ballet or opera
 an interactive game

Still life: A  work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically commonplace objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, and so on).

Line: a line is a path left by a moving point

Shape: a two dimensional area with identifiable boundaries.
Geometric shapes: mechanically drawn lines, squares, rectangles, circles.
Organic shapes: shapes based on forms of nature, which are usually rounded, irregular and curving.

Emphasis is given to an area within the design because that area is meant to be seen or is more important to be noticed when compared to other places of the design. Emphasis creates a center of interest.

Pattern: Two-dimensional decorative visual repetition. Motif is a unit that is repeated in visual rhythm (suggest movement through repetition). Units in a motif may or may not be an exact duplicate of the first unit.

Composition: The act of organizing the elements of an artwork into a harmoniously unified whole.

Artwork that is created by indigenous people or original inhabitants is called aboriginal.
The Australian aboriginal culture is well known of its aboriginal art.

Characteristics of aboriginal art
1. Lines and shapes are repeated over and over in this art.
2. Pattern is an important design principle in this type of art.
3. Repeated dots are often used and repeated in this artwork.
4. This artwork could be characterized as "tribal".

In LAW 2, we looked at historical events that had an effect on artwork in the 60’s. Some of these events were World War II, the atomic bomb, television, Rock and Roll music, Disneyland opens in California, the Barbie doll debuts, the Vietnam War, Neil Armstrong becomes the first man to land on the moon.

One art movement that was influenced by these historical events is called Pop art

The Mexican painter whose art we studied in LAW 7 was Frida Kahlo.
Her type of artwork is called Surrealism.

In LAW 6, we studied a painting by Picasso. This painting was titled “Guernica” and depicted the horrors of war.
