Module 11 Video Review


1.    Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.  The first video I chose was the Impact of Cubism.  And the second was Matisse and Picasso.  Reason being for this is they both had something to contribute to Cubism as I read. 

 

 

2.    For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.  Cubism was the most influential style of art in the 20th century where many objects that we surround ourselves with every day that represent form and space this  was used to bring together for us to understand where objects where brought together  If we saw objects before they were completed most would have no idea what it even represented.     With Matisse and Picasso they were like night and day.   They are both artists for the history books they seemed to be in competition with each other but yet amazed each other as time elapsed and learned from each other even though of their age difference.   The idea of things for a painting is what Picasso said.  He made the first collage  

  

 

3.    How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?

The reading and the video for cubism are one in the same and the information is pretty exact with relation and understanding of cubism.

Matisse and Picasso are both covering in the chapters but the video gave more vivid examples and explanations of their lives and how they interpreted the art world. 

 

 

 

4. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts? 

 

The short videos brought cubism to life as well as explained Matisse and Picasso to as if I knew details about how and why they painted.  They were in fierce competition in my opinion but at the same time and much respect for one another.
