The Arts Hole Is a channel devoted to exploring questions about art. We make videos that cover a variety of topics within the arts and try to explain them in as straight forward a fashion as possible. If your vaguely interested in things like painting, sculpture, art history, criticism, critical theory or other high falutin topics stick around. I'll be uploading videos on various topics each week. The main goal of all this extra work I'm making for myself is to help both you and me gain a better understanding of these complex topics and maybe, eventually come to some sort of understanding about modern and contemporary art.
"They sacrificed the surface appearance of reality in order to find a way to express a deeper and surpassing sense of beauty, which was to be found in color, brushwork, and composition." What an incredible line. You wrote a great script!
Many of these examples are not "abstract" art, but rather "non-representational" art. Abstract art has at its core some affiliation with reality but alters it in order to accentual or minimize various aspects asking the view to reconsider the original form. Non-representational are has no such grounding
Don’t get it. I will never be into it, I’m already not into normal art, but I at least understand what normal art is saying. This one is just meaningless to me. Not here to be an ass, here to learn. But from my perspective, you just said “a triangle is more important than a human shape” and never said why.
I think people who don’t like Matisse are just being stuffy. Take it for what it is. It’s like saying you don’t like fun. It’s vibrant and playful what’s the problem with that?
Weet je wat de Tamariskboom voor gebruikt werd 😅 Afijn begin bij het begin deze werd al genoemd in Jakobs tijdperk en het is een struikachtige boom in Zuid-Europa waarvan de zout-rijke As voor looien ( L-ooien en Verven wordt gebruikt 😅blijkbaar valt die appel niet zo ver van die stamboom omdat ik deze in mijn tuin heb staan ,blijkbaar vererf men toch nog veel wat de Bijbelse Historische betreft 😂
Modern Art ,eigelijk heb ik daar helemaal niets mee op, het enigste is misschien dat het chaos tijd aangeeft, hopelijk worden zij niet boos erom ,wil niet zeggen dat zoiets met veel kleur niet mooi uit komt in het moderne interieur,maar ik heb liever het oude waar je iets uit kunt halen hoe zij toen leefden dus een stuk geschiedenis om dan te herleiden naar deze tijd vind ik interessant, bovendien gaat deze spreker mij te snel ( in het spreken / uitleg ( moeilijk te volgen, misschien ben ik te gehecht aan een oude spreker 😅 tenminste zijn stem zeker 😊
give them something to look at,,thats what its about ,and releasing the inner stresses they cant see ,if they like looking at it ,u will be famous and they will talk about you for a long time ,art is what we do ,abstract is creating a new reality that only you know ,and they want to know ,Humans need to be entertained ,art is the original form of expression and entertainment ,there is something for every one ,good video
You did a fabuoous job on that video! I understand it was hard to write, but you got a lot of things that I haven't heard before - and I've studied a lot of Gauguin. Interesting about the Pizarro quote at the end that, Gauguin is "always poaching on someone else's land."
LOVE & ENJOYED this beautiful orchestration of Turner's paintings with your direct & quick informative dialogue. One thing i hate is the narrating host spewing mass amounts of words trying to postulate their well educated ego instead of just sharing information or facts. This video has given me a shot in the arm for inspiration, and is a nice reminder of what 2D art has to offer and can achieve. Turner has always "blown me away" with his paintings representing just the tip of the iceberg with what went on in his genius mind. Thank you ❣
Gertrude 's last name is pronounced ST- EYE-N. Notwithstanding the 😅glaring error that you made I still loved this video and subscribed to your channel. Btw while I was an undergrad at Columbia University multiple decades ago I fell in love with the poetry of William Bootler Yeets and the writings of James Joyceee....😅
Your volume was a bit inconsistent, sometimes louder sometimes softer. Totally not a big deal but if you wanted to even it out a compressor on the audio chain might help.
Wasn iT more the vulnurablility of a person where exempel if i draw someone i draw their inside energy or how do i explain and i at school of art had a project one draw the other yet my partner assigned was arrested before hè could draw me so i had a new partner to draw for the assignment and the artist teacher asked both works and hè Saïd mind u i did not know why my first subject was arrested but my Darwing Made looking and in the zone so a barely controle what looks how 😮teacher saw n told me i drew his treu self and i was lucky that his OWN mother went to police worried about me iT seemed i drew her too and she loved iT she looked more beautiful but she also Saïd later i drew his treu self could iT be hè couldthat but did not understand because i became better mentally and my art how little i controle the result looks more color
I've been binging your content since it was just recomended to me-so I realize you might not see this comment on an older video. Your content is fabulous and I appreciate you bringing history to people like myself that want to learn but can't afford to go back to school. I appreciate further your inclusion of the conflicting impact of artists like Gauguin. It is...chilling to think of my ancestors painted and used and discarded like this. A lot of art history documentaries often gloss over the colonist implications because of their significance. Thank you.
Nah...oranges were always for their color first, because he is a painter...not to symbolize prostitution. Just make up your own ideas and project them onto a painter...this will keep you from understanding them as paintings FIRST, not as sociology or language theory first. Only then will you understand them. But hey...we like words, don't we?
