The Roles Of Artist

Christo and Jeanne-Claude helped viewers see the world in new and innovated ways by making spectacular works like this. This art work is not hung on walls of a museum it is brought into large work areas like these trees seen here. Other works involved mountains, islands and buildings too. These works of art take items in our everyday world and transform them differently to see these land forms in new and inovated ways.

David Jon Kassan creates brilliant works of realistic art. His drawings look almost like photographs but they are not. He captures visual records of many people (which is main focus). His portraits are life size as well. David is a great example of how he does not look at things differently but captures it to record it in his work.  

 Pablo Picasso puts so much meaning into his work by making his pieces so complex and interesting. A person may have to stare at his pieces for along time to try to figure out what he is trying to say. This makes his concept of changing objects or women in this case into pleasurable, but also imbuing them with meaning. This piece for example, what I see is a woman looking into a mirror and seeing the ugly bad side of herself rather than what everyone else sees.

Jan Van Eyck painted naturalistic paintings, mostly portraits and religious subjects. He also made use of disguised religious symbols. His most significant piece is the altar piece at the cathedral at Ghent. Where this Adam and Eve painting is in part of.

An example of Kitsch are these earring's inspired by Andy Warhol's paintings. These are a form of very odd earring's that are not normally seen by people to be worn. These earring's made me laugh a little when I first saw them because of how unique and eccentric they are.

Vincent Van Gogh's paintings are very aesthetic. This is because you have to view all the colors and boldness. You have to search the surrounding areas of the environment and it makes a person think about every detail to try to piece it together. His work stirs up an sensation of interest and many questions.
