Meet KnowRe. Your New Digital Teacher's Aide. Time is Art | Art and Design Culture "L’histoire de l’art doit faire l’histoire de ce que l’on ne voit pas" La suppression temporaire du tableau Hylas et les nymphes, au musée public Manchester Art Gallery, en Angleterre, a fait couler beaucoup d'encre. Cette oeuvre du peintre britannique John William Waterhouse représentant le héros grec entouré de nymphes séduites par sa beauté a été décroché du mur sur lequel il était exposé, lors d'une performance de l'artiste Sonia Boyce, pour inviter à réfléchir à la représentation de la femme dans l'art. Il est remplacé par une pancarte indiquant : Cette galerie présente le corps des femmes soit en tant que "forme passive décorative" soit en tant que "femme fatale". Les visiteurs étaient ensuite invités à laisser un commentaire à l'aide d'un post-it. Lorsque l’inspiration vient à manquer, l’idéologie tend à la remplacer. L'art a une portée politique Pourtant, peut-on réellement parler de censure lorsque l'oeuvre n'a été décrochée que temporairement, avec un panneau invitant les visiteurs à réfléchir à sa portée symbolique ?

21st Century Classroom Cave to Canvas Abstract Art Didn't Begin with Picasso Artists are storytellers. They have something to say. People often think of artists as illustrators of stories or ideas, and many of them are, but because artists are poets, their artworks are not literal tellings of those stories. As artists learn from the work of other artists, among the principal stories artists tell is that of the ongoing story of art. Artists might explore an ancient myth, the experience of a kiss, the disasters of war, unrequited love, or the tension between two rectangles—but no matter what their subjects, they are all speaking with the same vocabulary and the same elements of art. As artists learn their craft and explore their themes—whether they’re working in painting or bronze or with garbage or blood, and whether they’re working abstractly, representationally, or conceptually—they revitalize and extend art’s vocabulary. Article continues after advertisement Artists consider all art from every period as living, relevant, and contemporary.

Lèxic Obert Flexionat de Català Alphonse Mucha: l’Art Nouveau est arrivé ! Si la simple évocation du nom de Mucha ne vous donne pas envie de siroter un verre d’absinthe en terrasse d’un bistrot à Montmartre par un bel après-midi de printemps, c’est que vous ne connaissez sûrement pas le monsieur. Alphonse Mucha est né en République tchèque en 1860, déjà doté d’un solide instinct artistique puisqu’il se mit au dessin dès le plus jeune âge. Comme tous les enfants me direz-vous, mais de la part du fils d’un huissier de justice, c’est tout de même pas mal. Refusé par l’Académie des Beaux-Arts de Prague (quel don pour dénicher les talents !) Accueilli à bras ouverts aux États-Unis, les quelques années qu’il y passera au début du XXe siècle se révèleront des plus décevantes pour Mucha. L’ironie veut que Mucha ait créé un style éminemment personnel pour ses affiches parisiennes en leur donnant un charme slave indéfinissable, et cependant cosmopolite.

The Alphabet of Art The Robert J. McKnight Memorial Web Site Welcome to the Alphabet of Art. This site explains, in simple terms, the elements of visual design. Once you understand the Alphabet, you'll be able to "read" pictures and other works of visual art and understand why they work the way they do. The Alphabet of Art was developed by the late Robert J. McKnight derived many of the ideas in the Alphabet from Maitland Graves and his book, The Art of Color and Design (McGraw-Hill, 1951). The Alphabet of Art is a service of Guidance Communications, Inc. The Alphabet of Art — A Notation System for Visual Design The visual notation system known as the Alphabet of Art is made up of Elements and Attributes. The seven Elements are the things that the artist or designer works with: Line, Line Direction, Shape, Size, Texture, Value, and Color. The Attributes are defined as the qualities that the art or design conveys to the observer. In any notation system there must be a method of making comparisons.
