Art Criticism: How to Criticize a Work of Art / A four step process This is what I give my students as a guide to art appreciation: 1. Description- What do I see? Study the work in detail carefully. Describe the work in full detail. Be factual. Mention everything you see. 2. Analysis- How is the work organized? Look for and talk about the elements and principles of art and design that seems to dominate the work. Look at how the artist has used The Elements of Art / • Lines- real and implied, curved and straight, direction of movement / • Shapes, Space, Forms- Are the shapes geometric or free-form? Where is the horizon? Where is your point of view as the viewer? (Above, below, in the work, or outside) / • Colors- Warm, cool, bright, dull, soft, bold, etc. / • Value- light: reflecting much light; dark: absorbing much light. / • Texture-Both the medium and the objects portrayed: rough, smooth, shinny, dull Look at The Principles of Design / • Rhythm- Are there repeats of elements or images? / • Movement- Is there an illusion of action? How does the eye move around the work? / • Balance- Formal or Symmetrical, informal or asymmetrical / • Proportion- The size relationships between one part to the whole or one part to another part / • Variety- Visual difference and contrast within the work / • Emphasis- What part is dominant, and what part is subordinate? / • Unity- Does the work hold together? 3. Interpretation- What is happening? This is more than storytelling. As in literature, you need to interpret and generalize from data given. You need to find the metaphor or allegory in the work. What is the artist trying to communicate? Use your intelligence, imagination and courage to explain and tell the meaning of the work. This is based on the facts you have observed and your own life experiences. You can express your feelings, but they must be backed up by the observations you have made about the work. 4. Judgment- What do I think of the work? Does the work hold together visually? Does it communicate with the viewer? Judge whether the work succeeds or fails. You give your opinion backed by the three steps above. To make a judgment, you need to be honest with yourself. You need to know why you feel the way you do. Three Theories of Judging Art Imitationalism -Some people believe that art should imitate what we see in the real world. / Formalism – Some people believe that the most important part of a work is in the use of the principles of design and the elements of art. A work is successful if the texture, color, lines, etc are organized properly. / Emotionalism – Some people believe that the most important part of the work is the mood the artist communicates. Perhaps it is best to use all three theories when judging a work of art. Adapted from many sources, including Arttalk by Rosalind Ragans

Don’t estimate one person’s power / This person will can be more determine then five people combine / This person can have easily tipped the scale with amount of personality / That stored in him/she How heavy or strong this person / Could a single human race change the course of the world? / What can we expect is that a person can be a rock, thrown into an ocean / Is bound to course ripple effects But you did have to wonder two people are always better then one / What can we least expect is to judge someone without knowing him or her? / Make false knowledge by just taking one look at the person. © By Hung Lin 2007

Beware, so long as you live, of judging things by their outward appearance.

For the contest “One”. Take a photo of an object that represents you and tell why. This is an empty journal. Some stories can’t be told with words. They say you can’t judge a book by it’s cover, but maybe you can. Like the sea, I am contrasting. I am passionante, yet calm. Beauty, and destruction. Like the paper in this journal, I am a blank canvas. My story is still waiting to be written. I am radiant, and I admit that sometimes I can hog the spotlight. Like the crumpled paper, I am not perfect. I am vulgar, and mean, and get angry easily. Though like the journal, I keep my less than admirable traits hidden neatly behind a pretty cover.

I Am Me
by LovesmusicI am imperfect / Unaffected by your / Attempts to pierce my
I am me. Simple. But, not so much….. I am a, umm, as some have put it ” a weird person.” Lol. Don’t try to figure me out. And don’t judge what you don’t understand. This writing is just my basic reply and response to those who have tried and those who I know will try in the future. Give up ;-)

while I was at work today this girt came into the store. At first glance I thought ooohhh,,, then I got to talking to her, she was the nicest young lady with a lot of goals for her life,, she has a very out going and bold personality all of her own,, I ask if I could take her photo, she was so excited. Before she left she thanked me for being so nice and told me that she usually only gets dirty looks from people.
