    Study Notes

    Humanities and Sciences

    • Humanities study the human experience, processing and recording thoughts, beliefs, and longings.
    • Humanities focus on the internal world of a person's emotions, aspirations, and opinions.
    • Sciences focus on the external world, studying what we see and all the processes that happen within it.
    • Sciences are objective, based on facts, while humanities are subjective, based on emotions and personal experiences.

    Art

    • Art is derived from the Latin word "Artem," meaning skill, art, and craft.
    • Art expresses human skills and imagination through the creations of aesthetic objects and presentations.
    • Art is not limited to what we see, but encompasses wider expressions.

    Principles of Design

    • Harmony/Unity: The pleasing arrangement of parts, creating a sense of wholeness in the design.
    • Balance: Visual weight of the elements, creating a sense of equilibrium.
    • Proportion: Relationship between the sizes of elements, creating visual harmony.
    • Contrast: Difference between elements, creating visual interest and emphasis.
    • Rhythm/Movement: Repetition of elements, creating a sense of motion and flow.
    • Value: Degree of lightness and darkness in a color, with tints being lighter and shades being darker.
    • Texture: Surface of an artwork, appealing to our sense of feeling. This can be actual (tactile) or simulated (illusory).
    • Emphasis and Subordination: Emphasis gives importance to specific elements, while subordination makes others less prominent.

    Focus, Content, and Context

    • Form: The surface feature of an artwork, what we visually perceive.
    • Content: The meaning and substance of the artwork, what it is about.
    • Context: The various situations and the surrounding environment that influence the creation and interpretation of the artwork.

    Types of Context

    - **Primary Context**:  The artist's sentiments, including their beliefs, values, interests, emotions, and personal style.   
    - **Secondary Context**:  The social, political, economic environment and the historical period in which the artwork was created. 
    

    Contemporary Art vs. Modern Art

    • Contemporary art reflects the present period and mirrors contemporary culture and society.
    • Contemporary art is diverse, encompassing emerging art practices.
    • Modern art dates back to the 1970s.
