Topic 5: Narrative

In class, we were asked to write down 3 sentences following some directions posted on the board, and later we were given back the sentences at random and were arranged in groups, and together with our sentences form a short poem/ comic illustration.

My teammates were Noah and Maria Latorre, our sentences were:

The great parents has the best relationship with his son. (actual sentence we got)
I believe in parrot
I voted for Trump.

As per we were told, we came up with three different stories. Our final story was about, a father and a son that are reading a book about parrots and are happy, and enjoying their time together. Then the kid tells the dad that he believes in parrots. And on the last illustration, we see a parrot holding a sign that says that he voted form Trump, and shows that parrots aren't good.

The First Lisbon or Durer Rhinoceros of 1515 (reading response 4 & 7)

The First Lisbon or Durer Rhinoceros of 1515 (reading response 4 & 7)  4  I prefer the woodcut by Durer even though the one from Hans possess lots of similarities, and is also not a realistic depiction of the animal the one from Durer is still my favorite. Maybe because I already know what rhinoceros look like I find beauty in his creation, I find it to be magical and kind of wished that rhinoceros looked like that in real life. The level of detail in which he drew it, combined with his imagination is fascinating. It is also wonderfully close to what a rhinoceros looks like, taking into consideration the fact that all he had as reference was a sketch and a letter, and he actually never saw it in person. 7 Giovanni Giacoma Penni, title-page, Rome, 13 July 1515 (Bibliotheca Colombina, Seville) I found this one to be the most amusing because I just really enjoy the drawing. It is very simple in its mark making, and also details but still manages to ...

The Outsider Art Fair

The Outsider Art Fair By Jerry Saltz Outsider, Self taught and Visionary are labels still used today to separate artists, and “real artists”  and determine whose work gets chosen to be part of the institutions. Jerry Saltz, criticizes this issue without holding back. He makes valid points which show how ridiculous and outdated this idea is, and how it is time for institutions and everyone to open their eyes and embrace the change. This practice profiles, and discriminates artist. It creates a line where there should be none, and prevents all this talented and creative individuals to gain recognition and claim their spot in the light. Saltz, raises an important point when he talks about how the story of art is being misrepresented, due to opportunities not being given equally, which at the end it affects art itself because there is no such a thing as outsider art. Art, and the art world should be inclusive without excuses. As an artist isn't an artist because they went to ...

Topic #4: Landscape- Additional quick research to accompany your reading of Eccentric Spaces Ha-has (recessed walls) A ha-ha is a recessed landscape design element that creates a vertical barrier while preserving an uninterrupted view of the landscape beyond. Ha-has are used in landscape design to prevent access to a garden, for example by grazing livestock, without obstructing views. The name "ha-ha" may derive from the unexpected (i.e., amusing) moment of discovery when, on approach, the vertical drop suddenly becomes visible.In security design, the element is used to deter vehicular access to a site while minimizing visual obstruction.Most typically, ha-has are still found in the grounds of grand country houses and estates and act as a means of keeping the cattle and sheep out of the formal gardens, without the need for obtrusive fencing. Parco del Mostri The Sacro Bosco ("Sacred Grove"), colloquially called Park of the Monsters(Parco dei Mostri...
