Recently I Visited university of Texas art museum (Blanton art museum) the largest art university museum in united states, it was interesting and exciting museum to visit because of different art works line, form, shape, texture, colors, value, and compositions and more than that, I realized that Blanton art museum has Variety of art works styles and period which makes it unique museum. In this paper, I will be writing on three art work that I found interesting and make me think harder to figure out the meaning of those arts in terms of history and Country civilizations where those art were originally made form. The most of art work in Blanton art museum was collected from Asia, Africa, America, Europe, and other different places of the world. More than that I found some religion arts like Islamic and Christian arts. Visiting University of Texas art museum, it’s been pleasant experience for me. I had an opportunity to Observe so may wonderful and amazing artworks at Blanton art Museum. Below I will be discussing three artworks that meant something in my mind due to the strong impact created in my mind. This are the following art works that I will be talking about in this paper
First one is Simone die Crucifissi (Simone da Bologna) bologna, Italy ,1330-1399. Normalizing the style of his splendid educator, Vitale da Bologna, Simone become the main painter in Bologna in the half of the fourteenth century. His label owes to his execution of a few great portrayals of the Torturous killing for significant holy places in that city. By the 1360s, having manufactured his dishonor, he included little scale polyptychs for private dedication as another strength. This depiction offers an especially effective outline of the primary riddles and establishment of the Christian church. The dim underpainting, which uplifts differentiations and demonstrating in the substance tones, the sensitive illustration, and the generally free use of paint are normal for the Bolognese school of the period. What's more, the common appeal and availability of the identities is ordinary of Simone's style. Uncommon, in any case, is the state of this work, with the paint surface for all intents and purposes undisturbed, the gold leaf uncovering its unique examples of use, and even the perplexing finials of the casing unrestored.
Second artwork that I really liked so much and I wanted to talk is artwork that was made by Regina Bogat Brooklyn, New York, 1928 I really liked Regina’s artwork, most of her art work are painted in red color and all her artwork looks so beautiful, I looked at the them so many times. She very talented painter as I was looking at her website I got to see more of her artwork that I could not find at Blanton art Museum. After examining her artwork and lead different articles about her, I find out that Regina Bogat Brooklyn has unique talent and story of her career. During the year of 1960 and 1970, many artists including Regina Bogat Brooklyn started making practices regarding social media; they often incorporated pliable materials such as yarn, string, and rope into their work.
Although Regina Bogat considers this a painting, the only painted element is its cadmium red background. After the artist drilled holes into the canvas, she arranged the cords systematically using a grid and a repeated sequence of colors. She then subverted the careful logic of her composition by knotting the dangling cords at irregular lengths. This is one of a series of fifteen cord paintings Bogat made in the 1970s from her home in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, where she moved in 1972 with her husband, painter Alfred Jensen. “I missed my art supply store in Manhattan,” she recently recalled. “In its stead, I found a local trimmings shop that had a beautiful array of embroidery threads and cord trimmings. I had been influenced by my friend Eva Hesse’s recent use of unorthodox materials in her art; and perhaps, I was also unconsciously influenced by the hair phenomenon of the early seventies.”
The third artwork that really liked so much and I could not manage not to talk about It is art work that was made by Fletcher Martin, Colorado, 1904 – 1979, Mexico. This piece of art work means a lot, this artwork is the symbol and picture of African Americans during great depression. When I saw this artwork, I was little confused almost to give up on this art but after thinking about and looking at it for so many times, I realized that this artwork was painted in form of boxing scene. African -American was down while white man was still standing up, it reminded Great depression in 1929-1939 in general Depression affected both Americans, but majority of African -American suffered form Great depression than any race during 1929-1939 because the unemployment rate of African -America was doubled nearly to be tripled at that time. I believed that Fletcher Martin the painter of this artwork has empathy of what African -American was going through during great depression including high unemployment rate and being treated poorly during that time. Martin delivered Out like a light subsequent to taking an interest in the American Craftsmen's Congress in February 1936, amid which numerous specialists drew parallels between European one-party rule and prejudice in America. Martin's works regularly include men in strife or encountering injury, even those that date to before his time as a craftsman journalist Forever magazine amid World War II. Here Martin utilized straight point of view not exclusively to make emotional profundity, yet in addition to plainly exhibit that these men are not on a dimension playing field.
