Antonio Sciortino - Arab Horses
(1879-1947)

This model was made by Antonio Sciortino which was made using plaster.This artist is a maltese artist who was born in 1879 and died in 1947.He was very famous for his work and even had his "speed" structure on the times in the malta newspaper on June 11 2014.I like this structure because of the very details it has on the model.It also seems to be standing on a little piece and then back to a full grown base which makes me wonder how it seems to be standing yet he was able to do the details and the modelling so well.Since i am doing structure modelling in ceramics i found this interesting and very inspiring.This type of model gives me the feel of the old maltese days even the clothing on the man who is on the horse seems to be old times like.

  • Similarities Between Pedro Reyes And Carla Fernandez

    368 Words  | 2 Pages

    The two artists that caught my attention were Mexican artists, Pedro Reyes and Carla Fernandez. What makes these artists unique is that they both collaborate together to create their own form of art. They met in college when they decided to collaborate in a show after knowing each other for ten years they married. Carla works with textile and fabrics and Pedro focuses more on welding, stone making or weaving. While Pedro works more with young college students, Carla finds her inspiration while working with the community.

  • The Trouble With (The Term) Art By Carolyn Dean

    791 Words  | 4 Pages

    While reading “The Trouble with (the Term) Art,” written by Carolyn Dean in the summer of 2006, we are taken through an array of different scenarios that lead us to questions what art really is. Dean explores the idea that the word “art” is used far too often and too habitually, and that as we study the non-Western cultures we need to use much more discretion regarding what we call the different pieces of their culture. Throughout the essay, Dean supports her thesis that we too often categorize non-Western pieces as art by using different examples of how certain non-art pieces were deemed as art throughout the course of their history. Dean does this by using four key examples of how these ancient pieces are inappropriately called art to successfully support her thesis and avoid biases.

The figurine is currently residing at the Princeton University Art Museum.

  • Compare And Contrast Madonna And Child With The Two Angels

    1271 Words  | 6 Pages

    Artwork is a form of self-expression from an artist based on life experience, or on something that the artist feels strongly about (Berenson, 87). The product of art can help others with similar experiences but not able to express the same feeling themselves. From the product of art, people can start drawing excitement, purpose as well as encouragement about the real thing being expressed. Through a piece of art, the artist can communicate a purpose, an emotion or an idea in their work. In this research paper, I compare two pieces of artwork; Madonna and child with the saints by Giovanni Bellini and Madonna and child with the two angels done by Fra Filippo Lippi.

    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.
