    Study Notes

    Principles of Art

    • Integration of elements and principles of art is vital for understanding contemporary artworks.
    • Fundamental principles of design include Emphasis, Balance, Alignment, Contrast, Repetition, Proportion, and Movement.

    Balance

    • Balance: Distribution of elements to achieve visual stability.
    • Symmetrical Balance: Elements are identically distributed.
    • Asymmetrical Balance: Uneven distribution creates a felt equilibrium.
    • Approximate Balance: Similar elements create an almost symmetrical effect.
    • Radial Balance: Elements radiate from a central point.

    Unity and Harmony

    • Unity: Elements work together to create a balanced, harmonious look, avoiding chaos.
    • Harmony: Stresses similarities among different parts to create cohesiveness.

    Rhythm

    • Rhythm: Achieved through repetition of visual elements, creating a flow or organized movement.
    • Regular Rhythm: Identical motifs with equal space.
    • Alternating Rhythm: Regular changes in motifs.
    • Random Rhythm: Unpredictable motif repetition.
    • Progressive Rhythm: Changes in motif occur with each repetition.
    • Flowing Rhythm: Curvy, wavy, expressive lines create movement.

    Movement

    • Movement directs the viewer’s eye across the artwork.
    • Achieved through overlapping elements, aligning edges, creating paths, and using blurry outlines.
    • Visual movement interacts with other principles like rhythm, line, color, balance, and space.

    Contrast

    • Contrast: Highlights differences between elements to create visual interest (e.g., light vs. dark, rough vs. smooth).
    • Enhances readability and accessibility of the artwork.

    Emphasis

    • Emphasis: Creates a focal point within the artwork, making one area stand out against others.

    Proportion

    • Proportion: Size relationships among objects, creating unity when elements relate well.

    Variety

    • Variety: Introduces interest by juxtaposing different visual elements.

    Pattern

    • Pattern: Defined by the repetition of elements, leading to visual movements akin to rhythm in music and dance.

    Subjective and Objective Art

    • Objective Art: Based on physical attributes; free from personal interpretation, focusing on visible elements.
    • Subjective Art: Acknowledges individual perceptions and emotional responses to art.

    Creative Elements

    • Medium: Materials and techniques used by artists to create works of art.
    • Meaning: Art often carries intentional storytelling or significance.
    • Context: Influences of external elements on the artwork or artist.

    Appropriation

    • Refers to artists using existing objects or images with minimal transformation in their new artworks.

    Performance Art

    • Encompasses acting, singing, dancing, and music, focusing on movement and time.

    Hybridity

    • Combines multiple elements to create cohesive art, exploring relationships within art creation.

    Technology

    • Digitalization allows for new mediums and approaches in performance art.

    Art Schools of Thoughts and Styles

    • Study of art movements within their historical context to understand artistic meaning.

    Academism

    • Art style adhering to norms and influences of European Academies.

    Conservatism

    • Philosophy aimed at preserving traditional institutions and values, with varying interpretations based on culture.

    Modernism

    • Global movement from realism to abstract art, aligning with industrial life and innovative practices.

    Postmodernism
