Surrealism

What I'm Going To Do For My Thing

     For my Surrealism photo I am going to take a picture of my take with my eye and mouth being covered by my hands.  I am then going to take a picture of my mouth and put it over my hand.  Then I am going to take a picture of my eye and put it over my other hand.  It is going to look as if my mouth and eye are coming through my hands.

Artist Review                                  

René François Ghislain Magritte (November 1898 – August 1967) was a Belgian surrealist artist. He became well known for a number of witty and thought-provoking images that fall under the umbrella of surrealism. His work is known for challenging observers' preconditioned perceptions of reality.

Max Ernst (April 1891 – April 1976) was a German painter, sculptor, graphic artist, and poet. A prolific artist, Ernst was a primary pioneer of the Dada movement and Surrealism.

 

 

 

 

 

Title of Artwork: The Son of Man

Date of Work: 1964

Description: It is an apple in front of the man’s face.  It shows what is visible but hidden.

Analysis: The piece is vertical.  It is centered in the page.  The simple colors of the piece bring out a lot of focus to the apple.

 Interpretation:  I think the meaning is that the man is clearly visible and you can see him, but he is hiding a small piece of him that is untold.

 Judgment:  I think the piece is very well thought out and very well done.  I like how it is so simple yet portrays such a significant meaning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Title of Artwork: The Elephant Celebes

Date of Work: 1921

Description: It seems to be a huge mechanical elephant.  There is also a woman with no head.

Analysis: The piece is very well put together.  The color scheme is great and the fact that there is so much going on in one picture makes every little detail stand out.

Interpretation: I have no idea what the interpretation of this is.

 Judgment:  I think the picture is very well done.  There is a lot of meaning behind it even though I don’t know what it is.

 

Part #3 – Rene Magritte’s work is very plain, simple, and easily understood whereas Max Earnst’s work is very complex.  Rene has one simple meaning to his photo and doesn’t have much going on, but Ernst’s photo is very confusing.  They are both about the same age so they entered Surrealism around the same time.

This is a series of different street signs. I took all the pictures at a straight angle. I tried to get an array of signs. I put this photo together in photo shop. I scaled and transformed all the photos to put them in a presentable format.

Artistic Inspirations

The Last Supper, Leonardo da Vinci
I chose this picture because it is of my religion and because it shows a visual of the last supper.  Leonardo da Vinci was an amazing artist. 

Sistine Chapel,  Michelangelo
I like this picture of the Sistine Chapel because it is unbelievable art work.  It is so detailed and must have taken so much time and effort.

Yellow, Nathan Sawaya
I chose this picture because it was made out of legos and is very different than other art work.

The Starry Night,  Vincent van Gogh

I like this painting because I think that the way that it is painted is very different and makes it stand out.

A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte,  Georges Seurat
I chose this because this isn't painted like most pictures are. This picture is created by stippling and I think it is really interesting.

Photography Composition

Leading Line

Leading Line- Line that leads object to other end of the image.

This picture works because the rocks create a line that show distance into the picture.  The rocks are larger in the front then decrease in size until the end. The rocks lead the recycle bin at the end.

 

Rhythm

Rhythm- a strong, regular, repeated pattern of movement or sound.

This picture works because the pattern is repeated.  The squares on this tie are equal in color and flow.  This photograph has equal measure between the squares resulting in a repeating pattern.

 

Framing

Framing-  the action of framing something.

This photograph works because the subject is framed.  The two poles act as a barrier around the subject.  The person is in between two poles acting as a frame.

 

 

 Horizontal

Horizontal-  parallel to the plane of the horizon; at right angles to the vertical.

This photo shows “Horizontal” because the picture is wider than it is tall.  The house is very wide therefore portraying a horizontal view.  It is parallel with the horizon line.

 

Vertical

Vertical- at right angles to a horizontal plane; in a direction, or having an alignment, such that the top is directly above the bottom.

This picture works because it is taller than it is wide. The sign is vertical.  The image is narrower than it is wide.
