Number 48 Art Critique

Posted on September 25, 2016 by Gwen

by: Hailey Lam, Julia Duze, & Stephanie Bondietti


During our conversation at the museum, we mainly analyzed what was there in the art piece. Rather than debating the presumed history, we opted to observe only the superficial aspects of the painting. We didn't discuss the significance of each shape or composition of the work, or the juxtaposition of the shapes, but had we the time we would have.

In this analysis we discussed a lot of the historical context of the painting as well as some of the artist's intentions. We compared this modern painting to a lot of the other older paintings we had seen at the museum. We could have described the painting more and we could have discussed some of the formal properties of the painting such as tone, material and medium.

A Cold Winter Night

We described the painting. We tried to interpret what the artist is trying to say. In addition, we talked about which objects in the painting represent which things the artist was talking about. We didn't discuss the content of the painting as much.

WEB OF LIFE BY JOHN BIGGERS

Posted on September 25, 2016 by Gwen

by: KIRIAKI GIANNOULAS & ELINA NIYAZOV


We analyzed the relationships between the connections of the objects in the painting and connected it to the natural life cycle. We focused on the context of the painting, specifically on the support of each organism. We didn't analyze the size or the materials that were used. If we had more time, we would've considered the scale, colors, time of creation and materials of the painting.

The Confidence Man

Our group mostly employed the composition element of formal analysis. We did not use historical analysis or subject analysis. We would have explored the historical aspect of the painting if we had time.

Clouds over the Black Sea

We didn't really analyze the formal properties or analysis very much, but we did mention the depth perception! We also could have been more in depth about historical context; however, we did mention context in the artist's life which helped us interpret the artist's intentions.
