While folk art is unique to it's individual cultures we can't help but recognize running themes in subject, style, and feel. From these groups comes a remarkably rich and unique collection of music, food, holidays, arts and crafts, and literature. Naïve Art could simply be classified as folk art, but is distinctly the work of untrained, or rather, self taught artists, many of whom are capable of creating the most evocative and relatable scenes with tools as simple as matchsticks and mud.

Mexican artist whose works of art reflect her life emotionally and physically hard. Better known for her self-portraits, the added depth and tone that Kahlo brought to her surrealist paintings gained her critical acclaim. A part of the Naive art period, Kahlo lacked formal schooling yet showed the technique on par with sophisticated artists. Kahlo was influenced by indigenous Mexican culture. This is depicted by her use of bright colors and symbolism within her works of art. Kahlo's life was marked by
Naive Macbeth Macbeth begins on a bloody note: a battle rages from which Banquo and Macbeth survive bloodied, but heroes. They are the generals of Scotland; the country’s future is in their hands and in their blades. However, when one clutches once to such power, it is hard to let go. Macbeth cannot let go. Macbeth also ends on a bloody note: Macbeth’s head is cut off and presented to Malcolm, his replacement. Peace is restored through war; bloody injustice is righted finally with bloody
Innocent and Naive Macbeth Innocence is a quality that few people take to their grave, although all are born with it. At some point in one's life, an event or circumstance removes that shield from both moral and legal guilt, whether in one's own eyes or in the eyes of another. In such a case, innocence is cast off, or innocence can be stolen. Both are true of Macbeth in William Shakespeare's tragic work Macbeth. The hero's innocence and naïveté make him vulnerable prey for those who feel completely
section{Planning and Scheduling} label{sec:planingscheduling} Automated planning is concerned with making a plan for solving a problem. When working with these kind of problems, the difficulty primarily lies in defining the problem in a precise yet relatively simple way. There are different approaches on how to do this, based on what kind of problem needs to be solved. Often their representation will include definitions of states, actions and functions which map states to a new state. The state

Set Theory in the Flesh The idea of infinity has been around for thousands of years. It it impossible to even conceive of this number or anything that pertains to the infinite. There is always one more. A billion is a fairly large number, 1 with 9 zeros after it. If one counted by seconds without breaks, it would take over 32 years to reach it. A Google, is a number written as 1 with one hundred zeros after it. One couldn't even count the number of lifetimes it would take to count to this number

years, people have been criticizing, creating, admiring, and enjoying art. It is universal, because it is evident in our everyday lives. From the houses we live in, to the books we read and the movies we see, art plays a key role in the development of these objects. In prehistoric times, cave dwellers drew on the walls to record their everyday life. In biblical times, paintings were used to record the life and death of Christ. Art is mostly created for a sole purpose or reason; it expresses ideas and
principles. Gogol presents a distinct contrast between the righteous integrity of the artist and the consumerist aspects of St. Petersburg, along with its underlying evils. In this way, Gogol suggests that the city of St. Petersburg is unfit for the naïve and idealistic artist, insofar as it offers seemingly-innocent beauty and indulgence, but conceals sinful “traps” which threaten the integrity of the
you believe art should be utilized to assist in preventing racism? Art should be used to prevent racism and it can have multiple benefits for society such as ridding of segregation and stereotypes. By defining the necessity to realize racism is an important issue in today's society, by refuting counterarguments that art can’t heavily influence an individual's opinions and actions, and by presenting sound arguments and documented evidence delineating racism, one will be persuaded that art should be
In this essay I will be discussing what, in my own opinion, makes good art. To justify what I consider to be a good standard of art, I will be analyzing the work of French symbolist Eugene Carriere and contrasting this with artwork I consider to not be 'good art'. The art piece, by Eugene Carriere, I chose to look at first is The First Communion, due to its significant use of symbolism. Sybolism is often used to provoke emotion in a viewer, an example of how this is used in The First Communion is
born-and-raised artist, was one of the first painters to set the standard for naïve art worldwide (Vallier, Dora). In fact, Rousseau’s artworks are “the most frequently reproduced examples” of naïve art, even in today’s age (Encyclopædia Britannica). His use of rich colors, employement of extensive detail, and subject matters - typically flourishing forests of a sub-tropical nature and exotic creatures - is what clearly separates Rousseau’s art from other artists of similar idealistic styles. (Vallier, Dora)
Most people automatically think that the word Art is referring to the types of music, dance or visual art that you might be used to .Although others will probably describe Art as a picture, painting, sculpture, or maybe even a form of music that expresses one’s own thoughts or feelings. However, I believe that Art is much more than that. To me, art is more of a creative way to express my deepest passions, thoughts, and emotions. For starters Art is language with or without words , it is the

Art is everything, without it we wouldn’t have all the things we enjoy today. Without Art we would have to say goodbye to books, movies, drawings, paintings sculptures, unique clothing, music, etc...Art is much more than just something to oogle at, Art is filled with passion and for many people it is a way of life. My way of life that I hope to achieve is writing and drawing
physical and emotional state of his characters to create dramatic works of art. Through Caravaggio's painting of The Fortune Teller, he is able to capture the realism of the characters and their encounter to leave a natural feeling for the observer. This effect of Renaissance realism of the painting tells a tale about the characters. Caravaggio is also able to express his own form of individualism through the work of art, as his leap towards uniqueness and style made it stand out. Lastly, Caravaggio
African Art and Architecture The history of art in Africa goes back to prehistoric times. Among the most ancient African art forms are the rock paintings and engravings from Tassili and Ennedi in the Sahara (6000 BC-1st century AD). Other examples of early art include the terracotta sculptures modelled by Nok artists in central Nigeria between 500 BC and AD 200, the decorative bronze works of Igbo Ukwu (9th-10th century AD), and the extraordinary bronze and terracotta sculptures from Ife
Art is a way to visually express yourself on a creative platform where you never have to worry about suppressing or censor your true feelings. Recently I’ve read somewhere that art is a human skill as opposed to nature, a skill applied to music, painting, writing, poetry, etc. Though I still believe nature can be considered art too. Basically if something is made a certain way, then it can be treated as art. Generally speaking artist typically use their form of artwork to pass along their viewpoints
Aesthetics is the philosophy of art. By appreciating the value of aesthetics, one can comprehend the meaning of the abstract notion of beauty. In James Joyce’s novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Stephen Dedalus’ perception of aesthetics is a key component in the main character’s pursuit of individuality and purpose. Through the use of literary techniques such as diction and tone, Joyce conveys the protagonist’s aesthetic development. This artistic growth, paralleled throughout the novel’s
censorship impairs an individual's freedom of speech and press. Also censorship has negative effects on art and human expression, as it creates boundaries on an artist's’ creativity, thus effecting the multimedia industry. On a societal scale, censorship prevents students from learning about the harsh realities that exist outside of a controlled school environment, leading to ignorant and naive adults. Censorship should not exist in America, as it is unconstitutional, takes away the true meaning of
