TPO1 Lecture1 lisent to part of lecture in contemporary art class ok,i'm going to begin this lecture by giving your next assignment.remember i said that at some point during this semester i wanted to(×) you do(×) attend an exhibit at the fair straight(Fairy Street) gallery and then write about it? well, the exhibit that i want to you attend is coming up. it's already started in fact,but it will be at the gallery for next month which should give you plenty of time to complete
assignment. the name of artist exhibit there is RF,R(F’s) work may be unfamilier(famailiar) to you since, she is a relitive(relatively) young artist,but she is got a very unusaly(unusual) style ,compared to some of artists we have looked at this term.but anyway, f 's style is what she herself cald(calls) Realistic Impressionism.so you have probably study both of this(these) movement,S(separately) S(separate) movements ,R(Realism) and I(impressionism), in some of your art history courses, so who can just some its up(sum these up)? well i(impressionism)
started in the late 1970(19 century), the basic compression(impressionist) style with (was) very different from earlier stylishs(styles), it didn't depict sceens(scenes) of(or) model's(models) exactly as they looked, en ,impression's(impressionist) painters tended to apply pink(paint) very(really) thickly, and in big brush stoke(brushstrokes),so the texture of the canvas was rough. GOOD,what else, what with(were) the subject? well ,a lot of pression of this art painting,every day sceens(impressionist artists painted everyday scenes),like people along(on) the streets, and in cafes, a lot of nature things(scenes) ,expecilly(especially) landscapes, good.so if(when) you to the exhibit, i really want you to take a close look at certain paintings.it's a farm sceen(scene), and you will see a wrtier's into(as right you enter) the gallery, the reason i think this painting is so important, is the(that it) stresses the impressionism aspect of f's stylish(style).it's an outdoor sceen(scene) and everyday sceen(scene) ,it's kind of bleek(bleak),but(which) you can only(really) see those broad brush stoke(brushstrokes) and the bluring(blurry) lines. the colors is(aren’t) quite realistic,the sky's kind of well unnature(in a natural..) pinkish yellow. and the fence of for ground(foreground) is blue.but somehow the over seenig(scene) given(gives) the (an) impreesion of cold, blenk(bleak), winter day on the(a) farm.so that's the impressionist side of her world(work), oh, and the speak(speaking) about farms, that reminds me. one interesing thing i read about F is when her(she) first moved back to I(Iowa) after living abroad, she often visti(visited) this place in her town called the s(sales) barn and the seal's(sales) bar(barn) it was basically this place where the local farmer bond so(bought and sold) their cattle, their farm animals. and the reason f went there, and she latter(later) on would with visit another(other) places like dance house(halls), was to observe people and the way that they moved, she really found that this helped her work, that it gave her an understanding of body movement and actions ,how humans move, and stand still, with p (what their postures were) like too. so what about realistism(realism)? what is(are) elements of r we should be looking for in f's work? real honest , the(×) depictions of subject matter, pretty unidealized stuff, and pretty everyday subject matter too. good,one another(other) painting i really want you to look at is of a young woman surrounded by punkished(pumpkins),you will notice that the woman's face is so realistic looking , that it's almost like a photograph,the woman's noise(nose) is a little less than imperfect(perfect) and her hair 's kind of manstaff(messed up),this is realism, but then the background of this painting, this woman with punkish(pumkish), draw blen......it's all kinds of s brush strok and lines(is wrapped in a blanket of broad thick brushstrokes, and, it’s all kinds of zigzagging brushstrokes and lines,) , kind of k(chaotic) almost when you look at it close. and there are virbrant(vibrant) colors. it's(there’s) a lot of orange, with little hence(hints) of licture(electric) blue pinking up(peeking out). i find f to be a very excessble(accessible) artist, i mean,some artists, to appreaciate(appreciate) them, you have to know some of(their) life story. and (but) here is a little bit about f life anyway. she attended art school, but was told by one of astroter(instructors) that she isn's(wasn’t) good at in listration(illustration), and(that) she will(should) going to advertising instead. so she took advertising classes and find(fine) arts classes too. until she was convinced by the head of an advertising agency that she(her) work is(was) really good, that she could be an artist,but of course it's not as easy as that, and so f had to painting(paint) another(other) people's portraits that(at) places like art fairs. just to make money to buy paint for her more series of art work. no matter what, she never stopped painting and now f is doing extremely well and her work has been(is being) shown all over the country. so i think most of us should be discouraged if we have(had to) faced challenges and difficulties like that, but what is important is that you keep at it and you don't give up that what's really important to remember.
