Age of Baroque

Baroque period spans wrought the years from 1600 to 1750 BC.
Because it has called the AGE OF EXPANSION. Baroque painting include realistically depicted human figures, a vivid use of color, and extensive use of foreshadowing techniques  Many of these characteristically can be seen in the work of Caravaggio, who is perhaps the most famous painter of the Italian Baroque era. The most stunning Characteristic of Caravaggio painting is his use of chiaroscuro  an extreme contrast between light and the dark value.                  

Baroque was derived from the Portuguese word Barraco.
they have five elements in baroque first is the MOTION the second one is SPACE next is TIME, The use of LIGHT and lastly the dramatic.

There were shared preferences among artistic from different nation with respect to subject matter and style. but there were also significant differences. In each country there was a considerable variety of styles from which to choose. A dramatic, emotionally charged style that sought to represent the supernatural was yet a third,, it was choices of subject matter frequently went hand in such choices of style.

The Rennaissance

"Renaissance” is the French word for “rebirth.” Rebirth means that the humanism during the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries in Europe. The Renaissance period was a time of rebirth of humanism and new discoveries in fine arts, music, literature, philosophy, science and technology, architecture, religion and spirituality.

 No other artistic movement has contributed more to development of art as a whole. Because Before  the Italian Renaissance artist held the same position in society as any other skilled craftsmen and were given as much respect as carpenters and goldsmiths. But, A new revolution in art opened the eyes of the world to the glory of the world itself. Because the subjects of the art are  religious in nature. Aside from commissioned portraits most artists made their livings painting biblical scenes and portraits of saints. It was generally assumed that only religious imagery was deserving of reproduction. 

Renaissance art was more realistic than painting of the Gothic or Medieval time periods. The concept of perspective was placed into paintings allowing for the painting to look like a scene out of real life. The correct use of light and shadow were changes that also came about during this time. These aspects helped to give Renaissance art a more realistic look and feel and boost the popularity of Renaissance art

christian Arts

Christian Arts is sacred art produced in an attempt to illustrate, supplement and portray in tangible from the principles of Christianity, though other definitions are possible. Most Christian group use or have used art to some extent, although some have had strong objection to some forms of religious image, and there have been major periods of iconoclasm within Christianity.
Images of Jesus and narrative scenes from the Life of Christare the most common subject, and scenes from the Old Testament play a part in the art of most denominations Images of the Virgin Mary and saint are much rare in Protestant art than that of Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy.

BYZANTINE ART:

the artistic products of the Eastern Roman, or Byzantine. Empire, as well as the nation and states that inherited culturally from the empire. though the empire itself emerged from Rome's decline and Lasted until the FAll Constantinople in 1453.

Many Eastern Orthodox states in Eastern Europe. as well as to some degree the Muslim states of the eastern Mediterranean, preserved many aspects of the empires culture and art for centuries afterward.

Ancient & Classical Arts!!

Questions:

1. What are your most striking impressions on Ancient and Classical Arts?
2. Do you believe these two eras of art have any influence on your personal style as an artist?
3. What interests you most on the predominant artistic style and subject matter of the two periods.
4. Do you think it will be easy to create artworks inspired by the two periods of art? Why or why not?

For me the most striking impressions is the Art of Ancient because Ancient refers of art that produced by the advanced cultures of ancient societies with some from of writing, such as those of ancient in China, India, Mesopotamia, Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome.

The art of per-literate societies is normally referred to Prehistoric art and is not coved here.
Even Classical Arts refers to the ancient art and architecture in Greece and Rome. It is particularly connected  with geometry and symmetry rather that individual expression.

 Ancient times affect modern ones, as the influences of the past commingle with those of the present. Ancient Egyptian art and architecture influence design choice of today, but contemporary designs achieves a modern fell with upgraded material and different textures. This allows an updated and fresh take on an old look.

In Ancient times Greece was the birthplace of Western Cultural. Because the modern democracies owe a debt to Greek beliefs in government by the people, trial by jury, and equality under the law. Which they introduced such as importance of literary forms as epic and lyric poetry, history, tragedy, and comedy. In their pursuit of order and proportion in the Greeks. Greeks created an ideal of beauty that strongly influenced Western Art.

I think the most  interested predominant artistic style in CLASSICAL ARTS. is the Sculpure or the Archaic Period because all kouros (male) and kore ( female ) statues represent sponsored subject or are designed as decoration of religious building, or as immortal reminders of the virtues of a deceased.

In ancient art the best i think is The Ancient Near East because it as the first to paractice the intensive year-round Agriculture it gave the rest of the world the first writing system, invented the potter's wheel and then the vehicular and mill wheel

Now a days i think it easy to create an artworks because the materials and elements are now invented and more people interested to create they own artwork. 

Which do prefer, realistic art or art as alteration or distorted art?

For me i think DISTORTED ART because REALISTIC and ALTERNATION are harder than DISTORTED ART because of the original shape or other characteristic of an object, image, sound, waveform or other form of information or representation of the art. Distorted is a change of reality's depiction, altering it in a way that one is able to still recognize the item itself, but, notice it is changed in some manner. 

How ever the REALISTIC ART is an art that takes as its subject real objects, scenes, events, people and situations that exist in the world, and attempts to render them mostly as they actually are to our visual sense, as well as to our emotion and mind.

Even the ALTERNATION. A rarely discussed design tool, alternation can sometimes be the very method you need for MOVING the viewer's eye through your painting, or making dull areas interesting.

Alternation is a type of repetition the only difference is that what's repeated is a pair of contrasting elements, not a single element.

PSAAL !!

Well it is the first in LAGUNA that have an activity all privet school that well be happened in LYCEUM OF THE PHILIPPINES LAGUNA. For me that day is a nice day for me because its like an intrams. The theme is "PSAAL" means Private School Athletic Association LAGUNA.



This my drawing even i hate basketball i choice this because i think many people love this game.  Basketball is a team sport, the objective being to shoot a ball through a basket horizontally positioned to score points while following a set of rules. Usually, two teams of five players play on a marked rectangular court with a basket at each width end. Basketball is one of the world's most popular and widely viewed sports.

Well even theirs have many sport LIKE volleyball, table tennis, football, chess and etc. all this is sport. Sport  is all forms of competitive physical activity which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and provide entertainment to participants. Hundreds of sports exist, from those requiring only two participants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in teams of competing as individuals.

The Most Influential Era of Arts and Design!!

                                          The Renaissance and The Last supper 

 
      I chose The Renaissance as the most influential
                        era of arts and design.
First  these period roughly from the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Italy.
The Renaissance was a cultural movement that profoundly affected European intellectual life in the early modern period. During the Renaissance, money and art went hand in hand. Artists depended totally on patrons while the patrons needed money to sustain geniuses.

 The Last Supper is the final meal that, according to CHRISTIAN belief, JESUS shared with his APOSTLES in JERUSALEM before his CRUCIFIXION.

I chose this period as the most influential era of arts and design simply because this arts or painting reflect that The Last Supper is one of the earthly life of Jesus Christ that are recorded in the Bible. This description of the last meal Jesus Christ had with his disciples prior to his arrest and crucifixion on a roman cross about 2,000 years ago. It is contains many significant principles, and continues to be important part of CHRISTIAN lives throughout the word.


That's way The "Last Supper" does not appear in the NEW TESTAMENT. However, the  traditionally, many Christians refer to the New Testament accounts of the last meal Jesus shared with his disciples as the Last Supper. The Last Supper was likely a retelling of the events of the last meal of Jesus among the EARLY CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY, and became a ritual which recounted that meal. I also learned that this Art was a dramatic painting for me.
