Module 13-14: Video Review

In the first video I definitely learned the importance of thematics and consistency. In particular, I learned about the lowbrow art movement. Lowbrow art was un underground art movement in the 60's, next to the punk rock movement and the emergence of psychedelics. Lowbrow was characterized by heavy use of various colors, and edgy, sometimes morbid imagery.
Artists such as Edgar Leeteg and Big Daddy Roth played a large part in this movement. They did this by using different mediums, Leeteg painted on velvet and Roth - tattoos.

In the second video, I very much enjoyed the art show. What I enjoyed most about it was the huge difference in art, whether painted, drafted, sculpted or created by some other medium. What we call modern art, seems to be a movement of statement art. Through the use of some of the most important elements such as color, and composition, and most importantly form. I'm learning that art, does not particularly have to be about something to represent many things. Modern art seems to be more rebellious and negligent of rules. More free in its execution and infinite in it's creation.

In total, I enjoyed both videos very much. I think that they both definitely helped in my understanding of how to properly conceptualize my project and focus on exhibiting a specific art style.
