1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
For through the eyes
of a sculptor to see a sculpture go from a slab of rock to a work of art
and beauty was amazing. His work with the horses was mind blowing to sculpt those
piece didn’t just take time but dedication and creativity. Also sculpting is really big in Italy and
people from all over the world come there to learn and sculpt their own
masterpieces.
For Glass and Ceramics
i couldn’t believe how glass was made. They actually were blowing air into
the mix and would form the glass with wood or metal. I like the stained glass work as well. To cut that
piece and put them together looked pretty cool. I’ve never thought of glass and
how it made, and I will never look at glass the same way again. Glass is a work of art to me.
For Installation art was
different it was site specific one piece that caught my attention was how they
turned a whole building into an installation and how they had a moving piece
moving back and forth I thought it was interesting. Tracy Emin’s work was
different as well. To use a bedroom as a work of art was very different.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text? The movies and the readings relate because you
can see the process, like for sculpting, in the movie you have an idea of how it’s
done. You can see the time and dedication it takes for a work of art. Also Glass it’s described in the reading how
its done and you can see how it’s done in the movie.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth
to understanding of the topics: Sculpture
The movies I thought read great in helping me understand the
process in sculpting and glass making. I like the fact that there are movies
for these readings because you can also see what the readings are about in the
movies. For sculpture it was amazing there was a quote in the movie that I liked,
“the work of art is in the slab of rock you just have to carve away the pieces
around the artwork”.
