1.For each video
list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
In the video, the Lowdown on Lowbrow:
West Coast Pop Art, it gives a
definition that lowbrow means a person regarded as uncultivated and lacking in
taste. The term lowbrow was founded by artist Robert Williams. The movement was
created as a manifesto, which is considered to be part of the surrealism
movement as well. The video, An Acquiring
Mind: Philippe De Montebello and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, it is a
documentary about the 8th and longest director in the history of the
Metropolitan Museum of Art. His name is Philippe De Montebello and he took over
as director in 1977. Due to his effort, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is known
for their collection representing all of the continents. In the video, Tate
Modern, it talks about the different processes and methods that an art curator has
to use when they are putting together a gallery of paintings and other art work.
2. Do the videos relate
to the creation of your Art Exhibition project? If yes, explain how. If no,
explain why not.
Yes, the videos related
to the creation of my Art Exhibit project because the videos included art
curators and the process of putting together an art exhibit, which is what I
had to do for the project.
3. What is your opinion
of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of the art concepts you
practiced while creating your curation project?
All three films are
informative however, the Lowdown on Lowbrow:
West Coast Pop Art films it a lot different than the other because it concentrates
itself in the surrealistic lowbrow movement. The other two films are more focused
on the concept of putting together an art exhibition by the art curators and
other staffs. They did add some depth to the creation of my own exhibit by
giving me another point of view on how to go about the process myself as well
as gave me different ideas on how to group things together for an exhibit.
