Study Notes
Art Appreciation
- Form in Art: Refers to the arrangement and structure of an artwork; categorized into the final output (2D or 3D) and the creative process.
Two-Dimensional Art
- Two-Dimensional Media: Comprises art forms like drawings and paintings produced on flat surfaces without real depth.
Drawings
- Defined as moving an instrument over a surface to create marks, primarily through lines; sketches often precede other artwork.
Paintings
- Involves applying colors to surfaces using brushes, knives, or even hands; can utilize oil-based or water-based paints.
- Oil-based: Slower drying allows easier color blending.
- Water-based: Generally dries quicker than oil paints.
Three-Dimensional Art
- Has actual depth, allowing viewers to perceive it from multiple angles, enhancing physical impact.
Three-Dimensional Media
-
Sculpture: Made from materials like clay, glass, and metal. Types include:
- Free-standing: Can be viewed from all sides.
- Relief: Attached to a flat surface, providing limited viewing angles.
-
Assembling: Combining different materials to create a sculpture.
-
Modeling: Gradually adding material to build form.
-
Carving: Subtractive process where material is removed to create shapes.
-
Casting: Using pliable materials shaped with manual or machine force.
-
Crafts: Functional objects like baskets or pottery, often with utilitarian purposes.
-
Architecture: Involves planning and constructing safe spaces, including buildings and monuments.
Technological Media
- Technology has made artistic creation more accessible, exemplified by:
- Photography: Capturing images using light-sensitive cameras, starting with the daguerreotype in the 19th century.
