1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
I chose the Expressionism video because I always felt that people use drawings and sculptures as a way to show their true feelings, and it comes out in their work.
I chose the Picasso video because he was always one of my favorite artists and it's just a really great time to learn more about someone who inspired so much work of future generations.
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The concept I learned in the expressionism video was that people were able to draw what they saw and not what they see. Its very important in drawing exactly what is in front of them.
The other video I learned that there was a battle of greatness between the two painters, while one felt that things needed to be shown via emotions, the other wanted to draw real life inspirations.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
These videos relate to the readings by just creating a more complex in take on the definitions and insight from the readings. Everything was basically the same except the videos were able to show a visual aspect of the readings which I find to be a lot easier in learning.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
I enjoyed the videos, I thought they gave really good concepts to the certain things we were learning about. I also feel that they were very important because it showed that expressionism is in almost everything.
