1 Artistic Appearances Representational - Abstract - Nonrepresentational Expressionistic Cultural Styles, Iconography and Appropriation

2 Four paintings of figures by Pablo Picasso. These are good examples in demonstrating his development. Picasso has been one of the most influential artists of the 20 th Century.

3 A representational image in art can be defined in two different ways. First, is a realistic or naturalist appearance. Which painting represents the most realistic or natural look to your eye?. Secondly, a representational image can also have a stylized appearance to it. Stylized can have slight alterations or modifications. An artist can sometimes be recognized for their style. Does one of these images demonstrate a stylized appearance? What has been modified?

4 Abstraction, as another form of an artistic appearance, modifies, simplifies, distorts or fragments objects, yet still provides an essence of the object. Simple shapes or geometric forms can assist in abstracting an object, figure or landscape. Abstraction is still something in the natural world. Abstraction aims to slow the eye and mind down for a moment. Makes a viewer look and look again. You might think it is one thing and it could be something else.

5 Pablo Picasso Can you understand these different appearance? Which is which? Representational Realistic or Naturalistic Representational - Stylized Abstraction

6 Can you visualize / see a portrait of a man within this image?

7 Do you recognize anything here?

8 Three relief sculptures by Constantin Brancusi The same types of artistic appearances can be accomplished in sculpture as well. Which sculpture of a head is stylized? Realistic? Abstract? What is the abstract head doing?

9 Two abstracted figure forms

10 Can you see an animal in this image?

11 Theo van Doesburg Cow After reading the title, can you see one now?

12 Theo van Doesburg demonstrates stages of abstraction These images help to visualize the transitional stages towards abstraction. Certainly van Doesburg pushed the boundaries on what abstraction can be

13 Alexej von Jawlensky was another artist exploring artistic appearances, as demonstrated in these images painted over a 20 year period. Life and Death 1923 Stylized and Abstraction Meditation 1935 Mystical Head 1917 Dark Buddha 1927

14 What might be the abstracted subject matter in each painting? Paul Klee 3 Abstract paintings

15 How close were you in figuring out Klee s abstractions? (Look at the titles) Monument in Fertile Country 1929 Rose Garden 1930 Bust of a Child 1933

16 If abstraction can be defined as an object, figure or landscape, in a modified version, yet still be the essence of something in the natural world, then how might you define a Nonrepresentational work? Four Nonrepresentational two-dimensional works of art.

17 Nonrepresentational Sculpture Nonrepresentational works of art can also be created in three-dimensions.

18 Which image is abstract? Which is nonrepresentational or nonobjective? Eliot Porter Lake Powell Rebecca Purdham Chin Up

19 Vasili Kandinsky Hard But Soft 1927 Paul Klee Has Head, Hand, Foot and Heart 1930 Which is Abstract? Which is Nonrepresentational?

20 What do you see added which might provide the Expressionistic part to these images? Was it color? Expressionistic can be added to realistic, stylized, abstract or nonrepresentational artistic appearances? Assane N'Doye Prayers to my Sister Alma Woodsey Thomas earth-sermon-beauty-love-and-peace 1971 Maurice de Vlaminck House at Chatou 1905

21 Which is which? Match each word to one image Realistic Stylized Abstract Nonrepresentational Expressionistic Abstract

22 Realistic Expressionistic Absract Stylized Nonrepresentational Were you correct? Abstract If not, go back over the ideas for each of these artistic appearances

23 Cultural Style Can you recognize from which culture each piece originates?

24 Indian / Hindu Cultural Style African Asian Egyptian Greek

25 Cultural Style From where do these women originate?

26 Asian Indian Latin American African American Cultural Style African American European Egyptian Middle Eastern From where do these women originate?

27 Eugéne Delacroix Liberty Leading the People x An icon might refer to what? So, why might Iconography be important in works of art? Wiligelmus Creation & Temptation of Adam & Eve 1110

28 Appropriation When an artist appropriates a work of art, he/she borrows composition or style of a past artist and updates the content or meaning of the piece to have an association to a modern context. Appropriation is not considered unethical, but as a way to pay tribute to a past artist and their work. Titian Venus of Urbino 1538 Lynn Hershman Digital Venus 1996

29 This is another appropriated piece from the introduction section. Two hundred and fifty years after the first painting (top), Shonibare makes social commentary about the wealthy people in Britain. How did they earned their money? From slavery and since Shonibare s family originated from Nigeria, maybe the idea of loping off the heads of the elite has relevancy. Thomas Gainsborough Mr. and Mrs. Andrews 1748 Yinka Shonibare Mr. and Mrs. Andrews Without Their Heads 1998 appropriation

30 Ester Hernandez creates her work on postcards, T-shirts and hats to spread her message of the unfair treatment of laborers in the US. Appropriation can include commercial products as well as fine art. It s the underlying message which is meaningful. Ester Hernandez Sun Mad 1981 T-shirts & postcards Appropriated subvertisement

Social Protest / Affirmation. Fighting for the Oppressed

Social Protest / Affirmation. Fighting for the Oppressed Social Protest / Affirmation Fighting for the Oppressed Many artists fight for the rights of economically or politically repressed peoples. They can use beauty, illustration, narrative, humor or shock
