Uncertainty: Modernity & Art
1.
Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from
the selection listed above.
Unfortunately only two video links worked. The others brought me to a log in page that I
was unsure of the credentials; the ones I tried didn’t work.
2.
For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The video covered the uncertainty of the future of art. What will modern art look like and how will
it be looked upon 30 years from now. He
calls abstract art an experiment and it is up to you to determine what it is
saying to you. For Abstract
Expressionists it says that the artists expression is more morally
challenging. He points out that earlier
eras had art and monuments of their war heroes, while modern art does not. He called Jackson Pollack’s art a weightless,
gravity defying, delicate dance. Digital
pictures bring artificial worlds of staged uncertainty. A lot of pictures as art capturing the human
form in many different ways.
3.
How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The video showed how art has evolved from early times to current
art. Modern art as was covered in the
book was shown in this video.
4.
What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to
understanding of the readings and art concepts?
The film added depth to what was read in the book by showing
actual art as if it was live.

2.
For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The use of colors invokes responses and invokes
imagination. Unions of solid and fluid
shapes make it almost unrecognizable as to what it is to be. Artist balances image and spontaneous
gesture. Action painting as form of
abstract art. Cartoon art is abstract
art. As is things like Warhol’s soup
cans.
3.
How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The video clearly defined and showed what abstract art is.
