What is Art? world around you and represents YOU!
• Art communicates an idea.
• Art expresses a feeling.
• Art presents a personal response to different
ideas through painting, design, photography,
sculpture etc.
Individually answer the following
questions:
• What is art?
• What are different types of art?
• How does art influence society?
• Why is art important?
• What sort of messages does art have?
religious ritual
From the prehistoric cave paintings of France, to the Sistine Chapel,
art has served religion. For centuries the Church was the primary
patron of artists. In traditional societies even today, the primary
purpose of art is religious or ceremonial.
commemoration of an
important event or person
The event may be of major historical importance, such as the coronation of
Josephine by Napoleon as recorded by the artist David, or it may be
important only to the participants, like the image of a wedding or a baptism.
propaganda or social
commentary
Propaganda images are attempts to persuade us toward particular viewpoints
or actions promoted by public or private institutions such as political parties,
lobbyists, governments, or religious groups. The propaganda purpose may be
one we approve of, such as World War II efforts to get women behind the war
effort, as epitomized in Norman Rockwell's Rosie the Riveter. It might also be
a purpose we disapprove of. In either case, the power of visual images has
frequently been used to persuade masses of people to accept beliefs, take
action, or follow leaders. The artist as social commentator may simply make
us more aware of the human condition as he/she perceives it, without
suggesting particular action.
recording of visual data
telling the "truth" about what we see. After the
Renaissance, artists became preoccupied with new
ways of capturing reality such as the use of linear
perspective, and the realism possible through the
use of oil painting technique. In time, artists like
Courbet and Cezanne (and many who followed
them) began in various ways to challenge the basic
idea of what it is for an image to be true and real.
Creating beauty
Yet the idea of beauty, like that of truth, has been challenged
in the modern era. At one time, the artist was expected to
portray perfection-- lofty and noble ideals of beauty. Yet as
society became more industrialized and democratic, many
thoughtful people began to broaden their notions of what
could be beautiful. For example, Rembrandt could celebrate
the tactile quality of paint and color in his picture of a side of
beef, and Courbet and Millet could see beauty in the life of
ordinary peasants.
storytelling
his was a common device of religious art of the Middle ages
where sequences of panels were used to tell stories from the
Scriptures or lives of saints. It is also the great gift of
Norman Rockwell, who had the ability to tell powerful and
subtle stories about ordinary people and events, in just one
picture. A picture is truly worth a thousand words.
intense emotion
The expressive power of art can be seen in literal ways in the
capturing of facial expression and body language. Certain
religious art, and the works of expressionists such as Munch
are charged with powerful emotions. Picasso, in works such
as Guernica (also an example of powerful social
commentary and storytelling) is able to communicate intense
emotions. This is accomplished variously by use of dramatic
or exaggerated color, light, form, and/or other elements.
innovation
“The central meaning of innovation thus relates to renewal. For this renewal
to take place it is necessary for people to change the way they make
decisions.
. They must choose to do things differently, make choices outside of
their norm…so innovation must be seen as something that does not
something that is…..contributors to the scholarly literature on innovation
typically distinguish between invention, an idea made manifest, and
innovation, ideas applied successfully in practice.”
In other words, innovation is a mindset not a product.
It is not starting from scratch, it is developing existing art by thinking
differently about it.
