FMX 211-3: CHANCE

 CHANCE PROJECT


This is Group 5's chance project. We decided to rip up some construction paper pieces by singing songs, while ripping the construction paper. We wanted to stay with the theme of the holiday, which was "Halloween!" We wanted to pick orange and black construction paper. Before class started, Professor Cifuentes had passed out candy to each table. We eventually ate all of the candy!! ;) We very much loved the fact that we could feel like little kids again being able to have candy in class during Halloween. In my mind I thought, "what better way to give the Halloween spirit in our chance piece, by adding candy wrappers!!!" The final product was produced by dancing around the tables, and by using the salt-bae method. We did not do anything blindly, but we did just let the air take the pieces of paper and the wrappers freely. Most of the construction paper landed in the middle of the canvas/sheet. The candy wrappers since, they have a bit more weight than paper, were able to catch some air, and fill in the spaces that weren't filled by the pieces of construction paper. I call this chance piece "Halloween."

MIDTERM 211-3- Group 5

 Fauvism Link to presentation: Media Arts Mid Term - Google Slides Fauvism was inspired by the Post-Impressionist movement. The art included bold colors, non-naturalistic depictions, and textured brushwork. The art was very EXPRESSIVE!! The art gave any object, person, or landscape new colors that people were not used to seeing. It brought many new shapes to objects.   Fauvism in 1 minute: (188) Fauvism | 1 Minute Crash Course - YouTube Fauvism today is still in relation to Fauvism art in the 20th century, An artist that I found interesting is Tim Fowler. The Lauren Bacall that Tim painted with oils, varnish, acrylic, spray paint and gloss may not exactly be the materials that 20th century artists used, but the end result is a revolutionary one. This painting looks like Henri Matisse- Madame Matisse. (The green line) My question for the class: Where did fauvism originate? Answer: D.) France     *** I edited all the videos except Greenberg. ***

Post #8- Lecture-Renaissance

 Lecture-Rennaissance The Rennaissance started in Florence, Italy. The paintings were muted, the colors were muted, and there were rules to what classified an artist as an Artist. The biggest rule was to add black to paintings to make everything stand out. They also used white to create movement in the paintings. Something called the Humanist Philosophy means people have the worth.   The Rennaissance means "rebirth", and it introduced the idea of "Humanism." Humanism came through more realistic, more 3-D, background perspectives, and more color. Byzantine art mimicked more symbolism over reality. Backgrounds were typically Gold, and they had large person in the center of the painting because they were important.  Early Rennaissance brought many painting techniques, and very famous painters and sculptors. Three painting techniques were: Fresca, Oils, and Tempera. Oils were the most preferred in the Early Rennaissance. Brunelleschi did the Duomo. He had rediscovered l...
