Post #18- LECTURE - ELECTRONIC MEDIA and PERFORMANCE

 Experimental film is performance art with a camera. It doesn't have to tell a story, or it doesn't have to have a message. It can relate to deep feelings or messages, or it can also be very boring. It was social and personal expression. There was no wrong answer. 9 evenings and theatre and engineering were becoming performance and technology. It was Avant Garde. Anything is art. Scientists began to create art. EAT (experience art and technology) was many people coming together to create art. It showed collaboration of art and technology. Electronic art works with technology! Father of video art Naum June Paik purchased the first Sony portapak. He created a brand-new art form.... Video Art. He also created the Magnet T.V. The electronic superhighway was to say that someday we will be able to connect from anywhere. David Halls TV interruptions was an installation of seven video works that were initially commercials, but it was to just relax and leave the world for a couple of minutes. Orlan created "Carnal art." She is super Avant Garde!

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.
