1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
I chose the video about Andy Warhol because he's one of the view artists that I actually have heard about, so I thought it would be very interesting to learn more about him
I chose the Photography video because I wanted to get a different perspective on art, one from a drawing standpoint and then one from images/camera view.
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Andy Warhol - I thought this video was very interesting because this artist was able to take an image, crop it, then color it, discolor it, and change the image ever so slightly that it made him famous (mainly for Monroe)
I learned the importance of how the camera and photography can have such a implication on art. It can all be done with a brush with artists, but it's just important to take a correct picture as well in order to make a great image.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
This video relates to the texts because it was explained about how the new changes in technology and stuff was helping aid the artists, well this was a prime example of the helpfulness.
This was a real development for artists, still pictures became a great influence of those artists who wanted to "revisit" their image.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
This was probably one of the more enjoyable films to watch through the semester, because I am a huge fan of celebrities and movies so to learn about some of them was very entertaining.
This film was good as well, however I do feel it explained a lot more in the book.
