Throughout this study of art history, we realized that the different styles and movements that existed in this area are either a resurrection of an old style with improvements or a revolt against a style to bring other forms and techniques of realization or still a style sponsored by the needs of the patrons even the great events of that time. There is always a basis for inspiration. These paintings that are proposed to our analysis this week don’t escape this reality. We will try to understand the different influences considering certain analyzes already produced on these paintings.
At the outset, we should consider the year of publication of each of these paintings: First, if Henri Matisse's happiness of life is realized between the months of October 1905 and the month of March 1906 and Les Demoiselles d ' Avignon by Pablo Picasso was made in 1907, while the painting of the famous painter Paul Cezanne was conceived between 1898 and 1905.

In the following paper, I will be discussing the similarities and differences between two paintings. These two paintings are Jean-Léon Gérôme’s Bashi-Bazouk and Lucas Cranach’s Saint Maurice. The Gerome dates to 1868-1869 and was created with oil paints on canvas. The Cranach dates 1520-1525 and was created with oil paints on linen.
On Thursday, the 25th of October, I attended the opening reception for Gregory Alan Smith’s “Antithesis”. I chose to attend this art show to view artwork that I’ve never seen before. I observed many sculptures hanging from the ceiling and attached to the side of the walls. In my opinion, the sculptures were a mixture of cool and warm colors. I noticed most of the art work had some neutral colors involved in them.
He pushed the boundaries of human mind and use his imagination in order to be creative and innovative. Moreover, Picasso introduced the world to a new way of looking at art with the cubism art form.

“The Open Window” is an oil painting by Henri Matisse made in the summer of 1905. It is a perfect example of the new art current which inspired French Art at the beginning of the century known as Fauvism. It represents the view from the window of the hotel’s room in Collioure in which the artist stayed. It is a small painting with sizes 55.3 x 46 cm, but it contains explosive and bright colors. Matisse has portrayed the scene in an inviting and light-filled way and with a large variety of tones and colors used to paint the boats floating on the calm sea and the sky during the sunset.
Creating a visually stimulating work of art, that engages the community, has its challenges; and yet, with those challenges I have stumbled upon my most significant endeavor. Assigned to produce a sculpture for an art class, I decided to construct a 3-dimensional disc-shaped work of art called Nightmare before Paradise. Exhibited on campus, the design depicts an understanding that we all have struggles before we reach our goal. Of course, the assigned illustration was perfect timing for finals week. Hanging from the second story, 16 feet of ribbed copper tubing formed a 5 foot diameter pendulous frame.
The painting Les Demoiselles D Avignon by Picasso is considered one of the most important work that defined the era of Cubism in modern art. The central argument in my paper is to understand Les Demoiselles D Avignon as a revolutionary painting of Modern Art.

It can be viewed in just one location or spread out throughout an area.
Introduction Visual and performing arts tend to act as separate entities within the field of education; considerably isolated from the majority of academia, these sectors are often considered to be secondary or elective options after completing primary education. The arts are an essential part of a well-rounded education, however, when an institute begins a budgeting process, the arts are rarely considered a top priority. For example, during periods of recession many public schools within the United Stated were forced to cut visual, performing and musical arts programs, despite studies that proved the exposure to the arts to be beneficial for students both academically and in extracurricular activities. Learning in an art-infused environment
It is important to study something in school that you enjoy but that is also useful in the real world. I have always been asked, “what's your major?”. I would answer art history and always got a response like, “what are you going to do with that?”. Most parents and students don’t feel that there is a good foundation from learning Art History. It is often heard from high school and college students (influenced by their parents) that to succeed you must major in science, technology, engineering, or business.
