Mod. 12- Blog Video Review

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
I chose the two videos because they seemed like interesting topic that I would love to know more about.
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
  • Abstract Expressionism was born from a joining of attitudes in American art and European avant-garde art
  • It was rejected for its nonfigurative and seemingly egocentric character in favor of the ultra-objective phenomenon known as Pop Art.
  • He never wanted to be an artist, not until later on in his life
  • Made the Marilyn Monroe Painting after her death; that made him famous
  • Elizabeth Taylor was his next muse

2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The videos relates to the readings because the videos talked about each concept in the text in more depth and by giving great examples of abstract Expressionism are and also Andy's life and work.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
Both videos were very informative but boring. They added depth to my understanding of the readings and art concepts by giving details and examples of the artists and their art work.
