Theme: Mother nature

I am having a catharsis

I am having catharsis in this form of art. Although art includes human body shapes and its structure but i believe though its true but this work of art also represents the opposite sides. the hand of the lady is colored red which means because of the baby or pregnancy or somehow she has been injured. This is a kind of situation that we face everyday our daily life. Whenever I see pregnant women, Instead of something good or blessing the opposite side such as death or blood comes in my mind because of this art work.

Human behaviour

Human Behaviour" is Icelandic singer Björk's first solo single, taken from the album Debut. It contains a sample of "Go Down Dying" by Antonio Carlos Jobim. The lyrics reflect on human nature and emotion from an animal's point of view. The song is the first part of a trilogy that includes "Isobel" and "Bachelorette".^{[citation needed]}

"Human Behaviour" was an underground smash, and reached #36 in the UK Singles Chart.

interview with an artist

Jock Sturges, photographer of beauty and form, is one of this generations most celebrated photographers. Despite being respected by his peers and loved by his subjects, Jock has endured more than his fair share of public criticism. He is a prolific photographer with more than a dozen published works including three limited edition portfolios and nine books, his most recent being a colossal color book titled Life Time published in 2008 by Steidl. You need only view the images that Jock creates to understand the admiration and respect that he holds for the friends that he photographs.

Why do you make photos, what is your purpose?

I make photos first and foremost because I want to own them. If someone else had somehow magically made the same pictures I would still want to own them. My work is not about photography itself per se – rather an overwhelming affection for aspects of identity, beauty and line that I want to see repeated in objects I can admire in permanence.

Where does your subject in art come from and how do you work?

The origin of what I do is simple. The second youngest of five brothers (no sisters) I was sent away to boy’s boarding schools and summer camps starting at age 8 and then at 18 went from there to four years in the US Navy which was pretty much a men’s club at that point in history. Out of the military at 23, I found myself in a small liberal, coed college and thus in the presence of women in a meaningful way for the first time in my life. Glory be. My work of the opposite sex began then and has never stopped. 23 years of deprivation forged an unflagging fascination that endures to this day.

What is the contrast between the intent of your work and the perception of your work?

That is an impossible question to answer because perception varies in every individual, and, more broadly, in every culture. There can only ever be differing perceptions of just what any given body of work or individual art object is. The range of possibilities is near infinite. What one person or group finds unlovely, another might consider transcendent, another shocking, another dull. It is finally not my responsibility nor of any great interest to me to address the external perception of my work at all. But I do not seek to please nobody. Not at all. I want first of all to please the people in my pictures and then, close behind, myself. If my work pleases the people it depicts and meets my own standards then I am done asking questions of it.

With your work being forcedly dragged into the political arena, what effect has that had on the way that you work?

It did initially have some effect because what happened to me in 1990 was not short of terrifying. If the feds had managed to convict me, I would have spent a minimum of ten years in prison which read to me like a death sentence.

How do you see? What is it about a scene or subject that speaks to you and causes you to make the photograph?

I will come at this answer from four slightly different directions.

- Taste.
- The color blue.
- Genius.

How do you decide between using color or black and white?

The color/black-and-white dichotomy is interesting because there was a point in time when I wouldn’t have considered doing color. This had to do with the form color pictures could take. Until a very few years ago even the best color prints represented what I considered unacceptably imperfect reproductions of what had been before the camera. But now, with today’s technology, I am able to make color prints that completely satisfy what I want visually in a color photograph. Modern digital printing with Epson printers and their magnificent ink sets have revolutionized the medium for me. Now I love working in color!

How important is it to remain true to yourself and your individual vision as an artist?

As far as I am concerned I don’t have any choice; it’s the only thing that I know how to do. It’s not important, it’s not even essential; it’s all I can do.

How does, or should, the word “passion” relate to an artist?

I was bemused in graduate school when I heard people standing around talking about what they should do in art. I was perplexed that they didn’t know. I never had the least doubts as to what I wanted to do, I always knew. I was lucky — always passionate.

Interview with a curator

The name of the curator is Joanna stephens, the manager of John Bell hood exhibition of Carnton.Some of the important questions of Bof and answers from her are given below:

BoF: How long did it take to get this exhibit installed from it’s inception?

Stephens: It took about a year, which is really not all that long for an exhibit. We wanted this exhibit to coincide with the opening of the Fleming Center. We were originally trying to find enough items on Gen John Schofield (U.S.) and General John Bell Hood (CSA). But there just weren’t many accessible artifacts belonging to Schofield so we ended up just with Hood artifacts.

BoF: How does this Hood exhibit compare to previous Hood exhibits around the country?

Stephens: This is the largest exhibit of John Bell Hood artifacts ever assembled for a museum exhibit.

BoF: What is your favorite item in the exhibit?

Stephens: I like the personal items best. I like daily-use things best. My favorite Hood artifact in this exhibit are the gauntlets. It is not too hard to imagine his withered left arm still wearing the glove!

I love personal artifacts . . . Those kind of things . . . but to really see a picture of what a person was like in daily life is really important.

BoF: What does this exhibit tell us about Hood that many people might be surprised of?

Stephens: My goal was to inform people that there was a lot more to this man than the decision he made at Franklin. So much before and so much more after. He’s a whole man. You have to take everything into consideration.

My right brain,my left brain

I think my left brain works more than my right brain. I am science major,so I practice calculations and logical thinking instead of creativity.Therefore, It is more convenient for me to use the left brain.However, if I see any work of art, I am interested to kn ow the theme or extract the experience of that artist.

Artists in society

Art is associated in our everyday life.Therefore,artists in society plays a significant role.Sometimes we cannot identify the artist. I would like to consider anything that we see when we wake up until sleep is in form of art. For instance, a can of food contains design or advertisement in the form of color to attract our attention.Any magazine we pick up from the desk, the front cover contains art and even the dress we are wearing are also designed by an artist. It is the fqact that the artist are not all painters rather fashion designers, photographers,cartoon artists, architects and many more. So art is embedded in our society as soul in our body.

Art and film

Film is one of the style of art that is most famous form of art in today's world.Film is the 3D visualization form of art that expresses human experience. The actors and actresses are the visual parts of the film who represent the work of director,writer and editor.They act as a team to present the human experience through individual talents.Film is the form of art where we can see the artist in a way that connects to us. Therefore,this form of art is famous than any other style of art. The story writer provides the concept. The director manages how to arrange the scatter ideas and aggregate them to make a meaningful concept. The editor is one of the important role in making film. the editor joins the scenes in a sequence to connect them as much perfect as possible like an artist. The acting and management together completes the film.many peoples are also involve such as costume designer,light man and others. Film is the collective style of art that involves drama,music,acting and dancing.

Art work from Bangladesh

The name of the art is "Runner" and it is done by artist Shahabuddin ahmed. This artwork is now in Newyork's contemporary indian art'. The work of art is very simple in a sense monochromatic that is the maximum space is occupied by the grey color.The work of art have both geometric as well as organic shapes and lines. The background is done to visualise the spped of the runner. I know this is great piece of art work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this piece of architecture

This the parliament of Bangladesh called " Shangshad Bhaban".Renowned architect Louis Ikhan was the designer of this famous building. The construction of the building was started in 1964, but due to the liberation war the work was disturbed and in 1982 it was completed. There are 9 blocks of the building, it is 163 feet high. The Total area is cover by open court yard, garden & nice lake. Visitors can enter this building on parliament session only by special permission. But parliament premise is open for all if the session of the Parliament is off.I love this piece because the honorable senators of the country represents their region and major decisions are made by them.

This musoc video is a true work of art

On te Graffiti beat- is it art or not?

I beleive Graffiti is a form of art because it is creative and expresses the artist experience. Like paintings, Graffiti have all the properties such as organic shapes and geometric shapes.The color combination is vivid. graffiti is a visual form of art athat attracts the viewer for at least once to glance at it.graffiiiti is not considered as an art form because it explicitly display the contemporary ideas to the society. Some upper class people think that it is disrespectful while many people appreciate the bravery. The work of art expresses that thought of the peoplewhich may not be explained by sppeches.

Poetry Slam

This poem is written by the Nobel prize winner in Literature "Robindra nath tagore" from bangladesh. I think it is one of the most meaninful poem about nature.

On the Nature of Love

The night is black and the forest has no end;
a million people thread it in a million ways.
We have trysts to keep in the darkness, but where
or with whom - of that we are unaware.
But we have this faith - that a lifetime's bliss
will appear any minute, with a smile upon its lips.
Scents, touches, sounds, snatches of songs
brush us, pass us, give us delightful shocks.
Then peradventure there's a flash of lightning:
whomever I see that instant I fall in love with.
I call that person and cry: `This life is blest!
for your sake such miles have I traversed!'
All those others who came close and moved off
in the darkness - I don't know if they exist or not.

Pahela baishakh is a culture because.......

The photographs above shows the cultural event called" Pahela baishakh".This is the first day of bengla new year, which is celebrated by Bengali people of Bangladesh and Calcutta.This is one of the event which clearly reflects the artistic culture of the nation. As can be seen in the photograph, many paintings and colorful lightweight statues for rally are created by the fine art students of Dhaka university, bangladesh. Women wear "white and red sarees" whereas men wear "Punjabi", tyhe traditional dresses. In the evening,traditional dance,music,acting and other activities are performed at a certain place in the city called "Ramna Batmul".People gatheredthere to enjoy and buy paintings or making tatoos on faces.This event clearly illustrates the culture and tradition of the society.

This film is a work of art

"Taare Zameen Par" is the name of this Oscar nominated Indian movie which means stars on the ground. The actor and director,AAmir khan is an art teacher in a secondary school.The story of the movie is about a naughty kid and how is talent of art discovered by his art teacher.The child actor, Darsheel zafary is the younger son of the family but he is so naughty that always people complain to his parents about him. So his father decided to send him to hostel where he found the new art teacher. The kid is weak in study but very talented in paintings.His right brain is more dominant than his left brain. Soon he won the art competition and regarded as the top child artist. The movie clearly deals with the behaviour of parents with kids and also how the right brain can be more effectivean the left brain. This movie also promotes art in secondary education.

Favoutite artist

My favourite artist is Aamir khan, who is one of the best indian actor and the creative mind.He is not only an actor but also producer and director of two films those are winners of many awards and were nominated for Oscar. His creativity makes him famous. he is also known as the perfectionist. Aamir khan is a versatile actor who achieved success in all fields of acting that includes from comedy to emotional,patriotism to romaticicsm.The speciality that his films are blockbuster because he makes one film in every year and tries to make as much perfect as possible. Such creative thinking ,talent in acting and dancing mede him reach the top of all actors in this time.Two of the great movies which were OScar nominated are "Lagaan" and "Tare zameen par" A movie about Art.

Fashion

Fashion is one of the most visual form of aret that deals with fabrics,color and design. I think it is one of the most famous form of art of this era. The work of designer has shapes and lines like an artist .The difference is instead of ink,they are using fabrics.The pictures above shows the design from Bangladesh. It shows the culture and tradition and how peoples of that country likes to represent themselves.This work of art eventually varies with season,age.sex and society. Different kind of desing can be seen all around the world. The dress of a person depends on his societal balance and indivial choice. I believe that our impression on other peoples is first recognized by our styles that includes our dress. fashion is therefore the keypoint to reflect our taste of choice and thinking style "Kantash" is one of the famous fashion desing house in Bangladesh.

The fashion shows are the creativity of the fashion designers represented by the model when they walk on the ramp. "Cat walk" is the one of the famous word that we use in our daily life. But to be a model and demostrate the work of art clearly to the audience it is the baby step for them.Fashion includes from hair to shoe and highlights the personality.In fact, it is one of the largest business of this century that deals with to keep up peoples outlook with the modern era.There are thousands of fashion magazines informs us about the latest invention or creation of designer around the world.

Dance

Dance is the form of art that includes motion and it also encourages the viewer to perform the same form of art. Dance can be defined as a sport and art form that generally refers to movement of the body, usually rhythmic and to music,used as a form of expression, social interaction or presented in a spiritual or performance setting.Dance may also be regarded as a form of nonverbal communication between humans. Gymnastics, figure skating and synchronized swimming are some examples of sport dance while the dance in theatre or music video are the aer form. There are many dancing styles but belle and figure skating are the two form of dances which encourages me. Belle concentrate mostly on the balncing of the body whereas ice skating includes dance on the slippery ice.Moreover, figure skating takes tha advantage of the lubricant ice and includes more movements such as rotation and jumping to visualize the art more energetic and vivid that experience freedom to the dancer.

Art education in schools

Art education is one of the most important part of education because it is the only subject which allows the students to use their right brain therefore become creative.Art promotes different kinds of thinking that Math and Language Arts classes, for example, cannot. A study found that “visual-spatial abilities, reflection, self-criticism, and the willingness to experiment and learn from mistakes” are skills that seem to be taught only in art classes . Art education provides an outlet for students to make connections to other subject matter and provides students with projects that allow for personal interactions with the subject and its activities. The process of studying and making art permits personal satisfaction, recognition in society, a connection to the past, and an avenue that allows personal opinion to be expressed visually. These factors promote intrinsic motivation, which, for some, can lead to motivation in other areas in school as well.

Public Art

The art work pictured above is called "Bent of Mind" by British artist Tony Cragg in Nangang Software Park,Taiwan.
I believe that public art is the most sensitive as it can be viewed by everyone .Therefore easily can be critisized or embraced. This work of art tries to imply about human mind.The term public art properly refers to works of art in any media that has been planned and executed with the specific intention of being sited or staged in the physical public domain, usually outside and accessible to all. The term is especially significant within the art world, amongst curators, commissioning bodies and practitioners of public art, to whom it signifies a particular working practice, often with implications of site specificity, community involvement and collaboration. The term is sometimes also applied to include any art which is exhibited in a public space including publicly accessible buildings.
