The Meaning and Importance of Arts1.The term humanities is derived from the Latin word humanus meaning human, cultured and refined what humanities believes is that man should be humanized, socialized and educated to respond positively and rapid changes. 2. Art is derived from the Latin word ars meaning ability or skill. Art embraces the visual arts, literature, music and dance. 3.Art, like love, is very important in our lives as it is concerned with the communication of certain ideas and feelings by means of a sensuous medium-color, sound, bronze, marble, words, film, and literature. 4. All arts have functions for people since they satisfy a particular need for them.

The Meaning and Importance of Arts5.Visual arts, or space arts are those that we perceive with our eye and which occupy space.6. Auditory or time arts are those that can be heard and are expressed in time.7. Combined arts are those that can be both seen and heard and these exist in both space and time.

The Nature of ArtArt is very important in our lives. All the art that we see or hear have a purpose as well as expression. We can communicate through paintings, songs, dances, and dramatic plays to highlight and heighten the importance of certain events and to keep them memorable and pleasurable.

A Work of ArtA work of art is an activity that involves both imagination and skill in accomplishing it. It creates aesthetic feelings or experiences, which delight and satisfy our desire for beautiful things. It is great when the aesthetic experiences it creates uplifts us and stays vividly in our minds. Much more, a work of art is presented in beautiful language, interesting to read and arouses emotional response. According to Bogart, a work of art is a record of the artists unique personality influenced consciously or unconsciously by factors such as: his environment , traditions, national traits, religious beliefs, economic conditions, his ideals or even the climate and geography. A work of art represents or reflects the individual, the character or the period and the place it is produced.

Art Appreciation is the ability to interpret or understand man-made arts and enjoy them either through actual and work experience with art tools and materials or possession of these works of art for ones admiration and satisfaction. Art appreciation therefore deals with learning or understanding and creating arts and enjoying them

The Artists in the World of Art1. The visual arts- include the painter, the architect and the sculptor. The painter paints pictures and objects from his own imagination. He says I think I see. The sculptor draws and carves from original designs and sketches. He makes scale model of clay. The architect on the other hand, plans, designs and constructs public and commercial buildings, private residences, theaters, factories, schools and similar structures. The landscape architect works with lawns, plat roads and levels of road and bridges, hills and valleys. Other artists in the visual arts are the photographers, filmmakers and graphic artists. Things such as clothes, appliances, furnishings of homes and schools and buildings are additional forms of visual arts.

The Artists in the World of Art2. Music and Dance in the art of music the artists are the musicians, the singers, and the composers. The musician is an artist who is called by other names such as composer, pianist, violist, flutist, Harper, trumpeter, bugler and drummer. He may be a music leader, bandmaster, choirmaster, concertmaster or song leader. The choreographer is an artist who composes or teaches choreography.

The author is also known as a writer. The playwright writes plays and adapts his materials for the stage, radio, television or motion pictures production.

Major arts include painting, architecture, sculpture, literature, music and dance. Minor arts include the decorative arts, the graphic arts, and industrial arts.

Grouping of Arts1.Visual Arts These art works are perceived by our eyes which may be classified into graphic arts and plastic arts. a.Graphic arts they have flat two-dimensional surface such as painting, drawing, photography and other products of the printing industry. It covers the commercial arts like the design of books, advertisements, signs, posters and other displays for advertisements.

Graphic arts

Grouping of Arts b. Plastic Arts- these are visual arts which have three-dimensional forms. Under this grouping are: architectural designs and construction of buildings and other structures: landscapes of gardens, parks, playgrounds, and golf courses with plants, trees and vines, interior design for convenience and beauty which include the furnishings accessories, the door, ceiling and wall paper or paint; ant the textiles for curtains and upholstery; sculpture which produces objects and images out of stones, wood, clay; metal or ivory; crafts or the designing and making of objects such as jewelry, ceramics, leather-works, and weaving. Industrial arts which involve specialized skill in making industrial designs of automobiles and household appliances; the design of clothing apparel such as dresses, coats, suits, ties, shoes, bags; and design for stage production

Plastic arts

Grouping of Arts 2. Performing Arts These include theatre, play, dance and music. They involve movement, speaking and gestures. 3.

The Elements of Arts Art is a powerful language. Through it, artists communicate thoughts, ideas, and feelings. Like most languages, the language of art has its own special vocabulary. It is made up of visual elements. The elements of arts include: color, line, texture, perspective, space, form and volume.

COLOR is the decorative element in art. It refers not only to hue but also to value, which means the amount of white or black in the hue and interesting or brightness. Have you ever noticed it is harder to see colors when the light is dim? Color relies on light. In fact, color is what the eyes see when light is reflected off an object

Color has three properties, or traits These are:Hue. Hue is the name of a color, such as red, blue, or yellow. Hues are arranged in a circular format on a color wheel. Value. Value is the lightness or darkness of a hue. The value of a hue can be changed by adding white or black. Intensity. Intensity is the brightness or dullness of a hue. Pure hues are high-intensity colors. Dull hues are low-intensity colors.

SYMBOLISM OF COLORS

BLACK- is the darkest and dullest of the colors. It is only considered a color when mixed with other colors. It suggests despair, gloom, death and mourning, conceitedness and selfishness.BLUE- is the color of the sky and of the deep water. It gives the impression of vastness, and infinity. It is a symbol of tranquility, calmness, and peace. It is the coolest color.GRAY- is the combination of black and white. It gives the impression of weight, solidity, and neutrality.

SYMBOLISM OF COLORS

GREEN- is the color of still water and vegetation. It is a symbol of growth, freshness, abundance and hope.ORANGE- is a combination of red and white and symbolizes love. It is the color of flame.RED- is a basic color. It typifies fire, blood, danger, festivity, bravery, war, passionate love, energy, and warmth. It is the warmest color.

SYMBOLISM OF COLORSVIOLET- is a mixture of red and blue. It suggests shadows, mourning, penance, royalty, authority and power.WHITE- when taken independently is not considered a color. It is the lightest of all colors. It symbolizes simplicity, clarity, purity, and peace.YELLOW- is the color of light. This is the color that is often mistaken as a color of jealousy. It symbolizes life, joy, sunshine, cheerfulness, warmth, splendor and hospitality. It is the most brilliant color.

SYMBOLISM OF COLORSYELLOW- GREEN- is the kind of color which is hurting to the eyes and which makes one appear darker. It is the symbol of jealousy and hatred.BROWN- is a mixture of red and a little green. It is said to be the safest color for all. It suggests humility and confidence.

Kinds of Hues1. Primary Hues (Red, Yellow, and Blue)These are the basic or fundamental colors from which all other hues can be made.2. Secondary Hues (Green, Violet, and Orange)Or the binaries result of combining any two colors in equal proportions or amounts.3. Intermediate Hues (YO, RO, RV, BV, BG, and YG)These can be produced by combining in equal measure a primary hue and a secondary hue.

Kinds of Hues4. Tertiary Hue (OV, VO, OG) These can be produced by combining in equal mixture any two secondary hues.5. Quaternary Hues (BVOC These can be produced by mixing any 2 tertiary colors in equal amount.

Prang color chart is composed of 12 colors divided into three primary, three secondary and 6 intermediate colors. Primary Hues- Blue, Red, and Yellow Secondary Hues- Green, Violet and Orange Intermediate Hues - Blue- Violet, Red-Violet, Red Orange, Yellow- Orange, Yellow Green and Blue Green

Primary Hues

Color Wheel (by Prang)

color schemes Monochromatic color scheme. This scheme uses different values of a single hue. For example, dark green, medium green, and light green make a monochromatic scheme.Analogous color scheme. This scheme uses colors that are side by side on the color wheel and share a hue.Warm or cool color scheme. Warm color schemes- with red, yellow, and orange colors- remind us of the sun and warmth. Artists use blue, green, and violet-cool color schemes to make us think of cool items such as ice or grass.

Color Harmony Color Harmony- refers to combination of colors that blend together well. When one decides which color of bag matches with ones dress or which shoes to wear with certain pants, he or she is deciding on a color harmony.A. Complementary Harmony is the combination of 2 opposite colors in the color chart together with their values and intensities.B. Double Complementary - is achieved by combining of adjacent colors in the color chart with their complements.

Color HarmonyC. Split- Complementary Harmony 3 colors together with their values and intensities are involved.D. Double Split-Complementary Harmony this is the combination of any two sets of split complementary that lie directly, opposite each other.E. Triads are said to be the richest of the harmonies. In the harmony 3 colors together with their values and intensities are used. It is three equi-distant point on the color wheel. Example is the primary triad.

LINE

Line is an element of art, which is the path of moving, pointing thou space or the trace of a moving point. You can draw lines on paper or scratch a line in wet clay with a tool. Lines can be seen in your environment, such as web of a spider or the railing on a stair.

MAIN KINDS OF LINESHorizontal Lines- are lines which run parallel to the ground, appear to be at rest, and lines of repose and serenity. They express ideas of calmness and quiescence. Horizontal lines are found in reclining persons, in landscapes, calm bodies of water and in the distant meeting of the earth and sky in what is commonly called the horizon.

MAIN KINDS OF LINESVertical Lines- are lines that run up and down seem to show dignity, formality and strength, stability and majesty. They are poised, balanced, forceful, and dynamic. e.g. A man standing straight, a tall tree, statues of saints and heroes give an impression of dignity.Diagonal Lines- suggest action and movement. They give animation to any composition in which they appear. e.g. A running person makes a diagonal line with his body and legs. The degree of action is shown by the angle of the diagonal.

MAIN KINDS OF LINESCurved Lines- suggest movement, flexibility, joyousness and grace. They are never harsh or stern since they are formed by a gradual change in direction. Curved lines are concave, convex, spiral and scroll. Curved Lines express movement in a graceful , flowing wayCurved lines (such as scroll, S-lines) express continuity. Spiral lines suggest fascination.

PERSPECTIVEPerspective deals with the effect of distance upon the appearance of objects, by means of which the eye judges spatial relationships. Kinds of perspective are aerial and linear. Aerial perspective means that objects become fainter in the distance due to the effect of the atmosphere. Linear perspective means that objects become smaller as they recede into the distance.

SHAPE AND FORMEvery object- a cloud, a house, a pebble has a shape. Shape is an element of art that refers to an area clearly set off by one or more of the other elements of art. Shapes are limited to two dimensions-length and width.

two classes of shapesGeometric shapes look as though they were made with a ruler or drawing tool. The square, the circle, the triangle, the rectangle, and the oval are the 5 basic geometric shapes.Organic is called free form. Shapes are not regular by even. Their outlines may be curved or angular, or they may be a combination of both, to make free-form shapes. Organic shapes, such as clouds and pebbles, are usually found in nature.

Organic Shapes

FormForm applies to the over all design of a work of art. Closed form is when the elements of a painting are contained with in the frame and lead the eyes back into the picture. Open form if facts of figures are to cut of by frame and we feel that the action extends out of the picture.

SPACE / VOLUMEAll objects take up space. Space is an element of art that refers to the distance between, around, above, below, and within things. In both two-and three-dimensional works of art, the shapes or forms are called the positive area. The empty spaces between the shapes are called negative spaces. Volume means solidity or thickness. It refers to the amount of space occupied in 3 dimensions.

TEXTURETexture is an element of art that refers to the way things feel, or look as though they might feel, if touched. It has to do with the characteristics of surfaces which can be rough or smooth, fine or coarse, shiny or dull, plain or irregular. It is best appreciated when an object is felt with the hands.

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSRealism is the attempt to portray the subject as it is. It started in France in the mid 1800s. It is a style of art in which everyday scenes and events are printed as they actually look. Realists render the exact details and distortions of a particular object. The presentation and organization of details in the art work seem natural.

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSAbstraction is a work in which the artist used a recognizable subject that portrays it in an unrealistic manner. Abstractionists used bright colors, varied brushstrokes and designs with simplified or rearranged elements. Ways:Distortion this is clearly manifested when the subject is in misshapen condition.

Elongation it refers to that which is being lengthened, a protraction or an extension.

Mangling this may not be a commonly used way of presenting an abstract subject, but there are few artists who show subjects or objects which are cut, lacerated, mutilated or hacked with repeated blows.

Cubism it stresses abstract form thru the use of a cone, cylinder, or sphere. It is style in which objects are shown from severalangles at once. (founder Pablo Picasso)

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSSymbolism - is the symbol of an image for a quality or an idea. It is a visible of something invisible such as an idea or quality. It can be simply an emblem or sign like: % to represent percent, a lion to represent courage, a lamb to represent meekness.

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSFauvism the first important art movement of the 1900s. Henry Matisse led the movement. He chose colors that communicate a joyous or happy mood. The artists goal was to express their feelings through sharply contrasting colors and heavy outlines. Most of the artists try to paint pictures of comfort, joy and pleasure. They used extremely bright colors. To a fauve, for example, a tree trunk need not be brown but it could be red or other colors.

Fauvismby Henri Matisse

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTS Dadaism a protest movement in the arts was formed in 1916 by a group of artists and poets in Zurich, Switzerland. The dadaist reacted to what they believed were outworn traditions in art and the evils they saw in society. They tried to shock and provoke the writing, poetry, recitals and art exhibitions. Much dada art was deliberately chooses because it was nonsensical. Best known dadaist was the French artist Marcel Duchamp. The name dada , French word meaning hobby horse, was deliberately chosen because it was nonsensical.

Dadaism

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSFuturism - it developed in Italy. Futurist painters wanted their works to capture the speed and force of modern industrial society. Subjects included automobile, motorcycles, and railroad trains subject vitality of a modern city. Subjects are related to fantasy, the future and rapid changes in life. Futurist painters wanted their works to capture the speed and force of modern industrial society.

Futurism

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSSurrealism this movement was developed in Paris in 1924 by the French poet Andre Breton. Surrealism uses art as a weapon against the evils and restrictions in society. It tries to reveal a new and higher reality that that of daily life. Dream-like images are portrayed as if you could actually see them. This movement (was influenced) emphasizes the activities of the subconscious state of the mind.

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSExpressionism a style that emphasized the expression of innermost feelings. The expressionists ignored the rules of art. They had the strength to experiment with, to exaggerated to change, the proportions of figures. The artists here use brilliant clashing colors and sharp, twisted shapes. Van Gogh painted the Starry Night which depicts his violence and which is the feature of expressionism.

Expressionism

METHODS OF PRESENTING THE ART SUBJECTSImpressionism- portrays the effects pf experiences upon the consciousness of the artist and the audience. The artist is characterized as one concerned more with the technique of suggesting light and color to the picture than with the subject matter. Leaders of this movement included Claude Monet who portrayed landscapes depicting sunlight playing on water. On the whole, the Impressionist shows features of vagueness fleeting and transitory.

Activity 3 Drawing and ColoringStill Life Drawing Still Life drawing means drawing the subjects that are not alive such as tables, fruits, flower vase etc. Come up with a still life drawing of a subject of your choice. Sketch the outlines first for harmony and proportion then use crayons for color.

Module 11Objectives: At the end of the lesson, the learners must be able to:Identify the principles of arts .Name the ways in which drawing, painting and printmaking media are used in art.Explain the basic methods of printmaking and sculpting.Sketch designs according to subjects and methods.Undergo sculpting activities such as: carving, modeling etc.

THE PRINCIPLES OF ARTProportion is the principle of art concerned with the relationship of one part to another and to the whole.The principle of proportion is not limited to size. Elements such as color can be used in differing proportions to create emphasis.

THE PRINCIPLES OF ARTMovement is the principle of art used to create the look and feeling of action and to guide a viewers eye throughout the work of art. Artists use the principle of movement to lead the viewers eyes throughout the work.

MOVEMENT

THE PRINCIPLES OF ARTRhythm is the principle of art concerned with repeating an element to make a work seem active to suggest vibration.

Sometimes to create rhythm, an artist will repeat not just elements but also the same exact objects over and over. When this is done, a pattern is formed

RHYTHM

DRAWINGDrawing is the art of representing something by lines mode on a surface or the process of portraying an art object.

If you have scribbled with a pen or pencil, you have used drawing media. Pen, pencil, charcoal, and chalk are some of the media used to draw. Artists used drawing for different purposes. One is to create finished works of art.

Activity 1 Drawing and Coloring1. Face Sketch One subject of interest for drawing and painting is a persons face. There are different shapes of peoples faces. There are oval, round, square and triangle too. Eve, the shape of the nose, the eyes, the mouth differ also.Observe the faces of your family. Try to make a sketch of the faces of your:fathermotherbrothersister Begin by drawing the outline form.

Painting Painting a process of applying pigment to a surface to secure effects involving forms and colors. Pigments, Binder and SolventBefore a painter begins a work, he or she chooses a type of paint and an appropriate surface on which to work. Canvas, paper, or fabric are three surface materials that painters use.

three basic parts of paintPigment is a finely ground colored powder that gives every paint its color.Binder- is a liquid that holds together the grains of pigment. The binder is what makes the pigment stick to a surface.Solvent- is a material used to thin a paints binder. The thickness or thinness of a paint depends on the amount of solvent used. Turpentine is the solvent in watercolors.

Painting MediaWatercolor. Watercolor as a medium is difficult to handle because it is difficult to produce warm and rich tones but it invites brilliance and a variety of hues. Simple and clear spontaneity is its principal essence.Fresco. Fresco is painting on a moist plaster surface with colors ground in water or a limewater mixture. The colors dry into plaster, and the picture becomes a part of the wall. Fresco must be done quickly because it is an exacting medium- the moment the paint is applied to the surface, it becomes an integral part of the wall.

Painting MediaTempera. Tempera paints are mineral pigments mixed with egg yolk or egg white and ore. They are often used as binder due to its film forming properties and rapid drying rate and corrections are difficult to make. It is more deliberate and technique than oil because it does not possess the flexibility of oil.Pastel. It is a stick of dried paste made of pigment round with chalk and compounded with gum water. Its colors are luminous, and it is a very flexible medium.

Painting MediaEncaustic. This is one of the early mediums used by the Egyptians for the painted portrait on mummy cases. This is done by painting with wax colors fixed with heat. Painting with wax produces luster and radiance in the subject making them appear at their best in portraits.Oil.

PrintmakingPrintmaking is a technique in which an image from a prepared surface is transferred into another surface such as paper or fabric Printmaking Methods. There are four main methods of making prints. These are:Relief printing the image to be printed is raised from a background.Intaglio the images to be printed in scratched or etch into a surface.

Intaglio: image is etched into the surface, smeared with ink (which sticks in the recessed areas), and (using damp paper) put through a press. The ink is transferred from the recessed areas to the paper. Relief: Pretty much the opposite; the parts you don't want are carved away, ink rolled on, and dry paper pressed onto it. In layman's terms, it's a big stamp.

Inrelief printingthe image to be transferred to paper (or other surface) is raised above the surface of theprinting plate. Ink is applied to the raised surface then rolled or stamped onto the substrate. The relief printing process is similar to using an inkpad and stamp such as inrubberstamping.

Relief PrintingBite Studio

IntaglioAmanda Fuller used watercolor in this spectacular use of color and value to create a mood.Tina Edwards evokes the post impressionist movement in this oil painting. Note the wonderful expressions on the subjects.

In relief printmaking, the matrix is a block of wood or linoleum. Using knives and gouges, the artist cuts away lines and areas. When the artist rolls or dabs ink onto the block, the ink adheres only to the surface, skipping over the cut-away areas. Intaglio(from the Italian world to carve) might be considered the reverse of relief printing. The matrix in intaglio is a thin plate of metal (usually zinc or copper), plexiglass, or any other surface in which a line can be engraved. Each intaglio process uses a different method of creating permanent marks on the plate.

Etchingis the process of using strongacidormordantto cut into the unprotected parts of a metalsurface to create a design inintaglioin the metal (the original processin modern manufacturing other chemicals may be used on other types of material). As anintaglio method ofprintmaking, it is, along withengraving, the most important technique forold master prints, and remains in wide use today.

Printmaking MethodsLithography the art or process of printmaking from a flat stone or metal plate. To make a lithograph, the artist draws image to be printed on a line stone, zinc or aluminum slab with a special greasy crayon.Screen-Printing the artist transfers the design through various processes on a silk screen.

No, they are not all the same, except in the fact that they areprintmaking processes. The processes and final effects are totally different. 1)Relief printing: The design is cut into a block of wood or linoleum, color is rolled over it, an remained raised. The resulting image is reversed. 2) Lithography: The image is drawn d the resulting image comes from the surfaces that on a limestone slab (classically), the slab is treated so the drawn parts attract ink and the rest doesn't, and it is sent through a press. The resulting image is reversed, but is a true image of the drawing on the slab.

3) Intaglio: This is sort of the opposite of relief printing: the ink is pushed into the lines and pits and wiped off the surface of the plate, and the resulting image comes from the ink in the engraved or etched lines. The resulting image is reversed.

SCULPTURESculpture is art that is made to stand out in space. It is the design & the construction of three-dimensional forms representing natural objects or imaginary shapes. All sculpture is of one of two types, freestanding or relief. Freestanding sculpture is sculpture surrounded on all sides by space. It is meant to be seen from all sides. Relief sculpture, on the other hand, is sculpture only partly enclosed by space. It is flat along the back and is meant to be viewed only from the front.

A sculpture is a three-dimensional form made from clay, stone, metal, and other material. Sculptures can be large or small and some are realistic.

SculptureMost associate chewing gum with youth and playful recreation - Maurizio Savini's sculpture takes that familiar flavor to a more dramatic, even eerie place. Though it probably smells somewhat nice.A sculpture of a naked Paris Hilton, post autopsy and with removable innards is being used in a Public Service Announcement to deter prom-goers from drinking and driving. The sculpture, created by Daniel Edwards. And yes, just like in real life, both her precious dog, Tinkerbell, and her cell phone are included in the sculpture.

Sculpting MethodsCarving is cutting or chipping a form from a mass.Often, stone or other hard materials are used in carving.Casting a melted-down metal or other liquid substance is poured into a mold to harden. Bronze is materials often mold to harden.

Sculpting MethodsModeling a soft or workable material is built up & shaped.Clay is the material used most often in this sculpting method.Assembling is gathering & joining different kinds of materials.

Activity 3 Sculpting1.Carving Carving is three-dimensional or made of relief. It is three-dimensional when the finished work can be seen from all angles. It is relief when it can be viewed on one side only. Different materials for carving can be used such as Perla soap, wax, big candle and soft wood.The subject for carving are as varied as those for painting. It may be a simple house, a shop, a fish, a fruit, a tooth, or a person. In carving, the object is made by the process of cutting out or subtracting parts from the material.

CarvingPumpkin Carving

Fine Carving Wooden Masterworks

Materials:Perla Soap, knife and water colorsProcedure:Sketch the object you wish to carve within the area of the soap (or other materials). With a knife cut out the parts outside the design. If properly cut, the shape of the design will be exactly like the original shape. Find out which parts should be thinner or thicker. Cut little by little to reduce the parts which should be made smaller. As the cutting goes on, look at the figure from all angles now and then.When the cutting is finished, smoothen the surface by scraping it little by little with the knife or rub it with a piece of cotton. The finished carving may be painted with watercolor or paint.

Activity 3 SculptingModeling is an excellent means of self-expression as well as of representation in three-dimensional media. Materials:clay or soilProcedure:Take some clay . Flatten it on the table. Roll the clay on flat surface until you form a coil. Continue the coiling until the shape of the object can be determined. Press and pinch the sides until the desired shape is achieved Modeling

Module 111

Objectives:At the end of the lesson, the learners must be able to:Dig out differences of the architecture according to periods and places.Discuss the uses of architecture and basic construction types.Explain the four-step system of art criticism.Engage in art criticism.Engage in acting.

ARCHITECTUREArchitecture is the planning and creating of buildings. The success of a work of it does the job it was meant to do and partly by its appearance. Architecture is defined as the art and science of designing and erecting buildings.

Architecture

Uses of ArchitectureStructures for prayer. The building of temples, churches, and other houses of worship dates to the dawn of history.Structures for business. With the spread of civilization in ancient times came the need for places to carry on business. In our own time that need is often met by vertical creations such as skyscrapers

Structures for prayerAccording to the Chinese media reports, this is the world's tallest stupa. Stupas are Buddhist structures that contain ancient religious relics. Usually they look more like mounds, and are also very old. Though this particular stupa has none of those two traits, it does house a very special Buddhist relic: an actual finger bone to Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of the religion.

Basic Construction TypesPost and Lintel consists of two vertical posts for support (post) and a horizontal one (lintel). A better known example of post-and-lintel construction is the Parthenon in Athens, Greece. It was built about 454-438 B.B. as temple of the goddess Athena Parthenon. The post-and-lintel is generally use d for wooden buildings.Arch is an architectural form built from pieces of wood called voussoirs with joints between them and are arranged in a semi-circle . Since stone can stand great pressure and is durable, this method is typical for stone construction. The dome is an extension of the principle of arch.

archColiseum, RomeCoffers - a sunken panel in the shape of a square, rectangle, or octagon in a ceiling or vault.A series of these sunken panels were used as decoration for a ceiling or a vault, also called caissons, or lacunaria, while a coffered ceiling was sometime called a lacunar.

ArchThe arch is probably on of the most important design discoveries dealing with math. Its shape allows it to withstand a massive amount of weight without crumbling. It must be meticulously built in order to not fracture under stress. A lot of math is involved.

Cantilever-is any structural part projecting horizontally and anchored at one end only. This method of construction needs a beam with a great strength that can be securely fastened at the supported end. Steel is the best material here. Other materials such as stone, wood and concrete can also be used.Architecture has three main qualities: structure, texture and aspect. Structure- determines how the structure reacts to the wind, floods, water, movement etc. This is a reaction to stress. Texture has to do with the roughness or smoothness of the material. This should blend with the internal structure of the building. Aspect refers to particular colors and outside skin after tooling.

CantileverThe cantilever stone, which can be found just below the summit of Glyder Fach (994m - roughly translated from Welsh as "Small pile of boulders") in the Snowdonia National Park, NW Wales.

ART CRITICISM

Art Criticism is studying, understanding, and judging work of art.In carrying out their work, art critiques often use a four-step system. The four steps are describing, analyzing, interpreting, and judging.

Art Criticism

Describing the Work of Art To describe an artwork, the critic must notes certain key facts. These includes the following:The size of the work, the medium, and the process used. The credit line gives the viewer information about the size of the work and the medium used. It is also lists the process, such as serigraph or woodcut.The subject, object, and details. The subject is the image viewers can easily identify in an art of work. The subject answers the question What do I see When I look at this work

Describing the Work of ArtThe elements used in the work. Line and color are two of the elements of art that play an part of this work.

In other words, the critic answers the questions Who? Where? and When?.

Analyzing an Art WorkComposition is the key word in analyzing an art work. When we say composition, it is the way the art principles are used to organize the art elements of color, line, shape, for, space and texture. Style must be considered also in analyzing an art work. Style is an artists personal way of using the elements and principles of art and expressing feelings and ideas in art. Two questions can be asked by the critic here such as: What style did the artist used? and Did the artist use the same style in other works?

Interpreting an Art WorkThe critic must focus on the content in interpreting an art work. Content is the message, idea or feeling expressed by an art work. All critics may interpret an art work differently according to their individual feelings. The interpretation of an art work will be based on ones personal experiences and opinions. In interpreting also, the critic needs to determine how time and place may have affected the artists style.

Judging an Art WorkTo judge an work is to tell whether the work succeeds. The critic will answer the question Is this a successful work of art? The critic needs to notes the arts place in history. The critic decides whether the work and the artist of it make an important contribution to art.

Activity 2 Art Criticism

Study the paintings posted by the teacher on the board. Do the art criticism by following the four-step system of:describinganalyzinginterpreting andjudging.

Mona LisaMona Lisa, 1503/06 by Leonardo da Vinci, Musee de Louvre, Paris. The mystery surrounding one of the most famous paintings in the world stems from the unknown identity of the sitter and the fact that the artist is one of the most famous artists of the Italian Renaissance. Leonardo used a painting technique he created called sfumato.

The ScreamOne of the most famous paintings known to the world is Edvard Munchs The Scream. This work of art was first created by Munch in 1893 and was first titled, The Scream of Nature. Munch went on to recreate a series of this painting however, using different materials over the next 17 years. In 1895, Munch recreated the painting in lithograph before repainting it again in 1910 with oil and pastels. The work has since found a place in our culture, becoming almost as recognizable to the common person as, perhaps, the Mona Lisa or Starry Night.The painting is popular because of its stark, almost disturbing figure which is standing in the middle of a road, hands clapped to its face, screaming. The sky is a deep red and a body of water is in the background. Munch recorded an incident in his diary in which he was walking with two friends down a path and, as the sun was setting, the sky suddenly turned a blood red and Munch suddenly felt a deep exhaustion, as if he could feel an infinite scream passing through Nature. This feeling, captured so acutely, became the painting which is now known as The Scream. This painting helped to usher in works of art which have more Expressionistic backgrounds, capturing the feeling of the moment instead of the sights.

The Scream

TheaterIt comes from a Greek word meaning thing done. It begins in make believe, in the play acting of children and in the ritual of primitive religion. When an actor appears on stage, he makes believe he is someone other than himself, much as a child does, much as primitive people will do. Thus, like play-acting and ritual, drama creates its experiences by doing things than can be heard and seen.The magic of theater is its ability to conjure up- even such incredible characters, depends on the power of spectacle. When we witness a play, our thoughts and feelings are provoked such by the spectacle as by the words themselves.

The Elements of DramaDrama like prose fiction, utilizes plot and character, develops a theme, arouses emotion or appeals to humor, and may be either escapist or interpretative in its dealing with life. Like poetry, it may draw upon all the resources of language, including verse. Much drama is poetry, but drama has one characteristic peculiar to itself. It is written primarily to be performed, not read. It normally presents its action 1) through actors, 2) on a stage, and 3) before an audience.Despite the immense diversity of drama as a cultural activity, all plays have certain elements in common. They are 1) plot, 2) character, 3) thought, 4) language (dialogue), 5) theme, 6) climax/denouement, 7) music and spectacle, 8) costume and make-up,9) scenery and lighting.

The Elements of Drama1. Plot. It is the term sometimes used to mean a summary of a plays story. It is concerned with what happens in the story. 2. Character. The characters must be shaped to fit with the needs of the plot, and all parts of the characterization must fit together. In addition to understanding what the characters are like, we should recognize each ones role in the story. The main character, the person who is attempting to resolve the problem is called the protagonist. The conflict he faces, frequently involves a struggle with some force outside himself (external conflict) as with an antagonist, and/or a struggle within himself (internal conflict).

characters

The Elements of Drama3.Thought. Every play, even the most lighthearted comedy, involves thoughts in its broadest sense. In dramatic structure, thoughts include the ideas and emotions implied by the overall meaning of the play, sometimes the theme. Not all plays explore significant ideas, but every play makes some comments on human experience either through direct statement or more commonly by implication

The Elements of Drama4.Language (dialogue). Language is a means of expressing the character and the thoughts dramatically; Language in the theater refers to the dramatic dialogue, which may be in prose or in verse. Prose dialogue may be naturalistic or rhetorical. Naturalistic dialogue is the actual why people talk, while the rhetorical dialogue is popularly described as high flown, florid, oratorical. Verse dialogue makes used of the conventions of poetry for the purpose of drama.`Dialogue is the conversation between 2 or more characters in a play.

The Elements of Drama5. Theme. It is what a story means. It is a conviction about the real world we live in, and it may be stated in several ways. Theme tends to be complex, and may include contradictory evaluations (Colwell, 1986).

The Elements of Drama6. Climax/Denouement. The climax is the scene or incident that is the fruition of the accumulated suspense, and that stirs the most intense feelings or emotions. It can also be described as the turning point of the story. It is very likely to be the most elaborately presented scene in the play. Denouement is the working out of the plot, following the climax. In this final part of the play, usually briefly but sometimes a full act, the playwright brings the conflict to an end and explains how and why every thing turned out the way it did.

In the theater, the element of a spectacle heightens the atmosphere whether of vitality or terror or sorrow.8. Costumes and Make-Up. Every costume should be comfortable and securely put together so the performer doesnt have to worry about it once it is on. Before the dress rehearsal, all the parts of each costumes should be hung together and tagged. A dressing crew from the costume committee should be on hand to help.

Make-up

The Elements of Drama9. Scenery and Lighting. Scenery and lighting, furniture-painted backdrops, or large props, should be real. The scenery may be simple, for it is supposed only to suggest the scene. Proper lighting can add a great deal to the realism of the play. Consider brightness, color, and direction in lighting the playIs the scene gay or mysterious? White, yellow, amber and pink lights brighten the stage and are happy colors. Blue and green dull the scene and produce a cold effect. Red and purple are mysterious.
