Cubist Painting Related To The Culture From Which It Came And Its Validity Today In The High School Curriculum, Virginia K. Fenton
Cubist Painting Related To The Culture From Which It Came And Its Validity Today In The High School Curriculum, Virginia K. Fenton
Dissertations and Theses
Cubism has often been referred to as "a dead art." It is the objective of this thesis to present evidence gained through working with high school art students that the study of Cubism, at the secondary level, can result in greater creativity and a genuine appreciation of the abstract. In addition to the study of Cubist artists and their techniques, a correlation was made between art of the early 1900's and other areas such as Social Science, Music and Literature of this time. By this method, the students were given a broader insight into the motives of the Cubist artists. …
An Exploration Into Aspects Of Broken Color As Exemplified In The Works Of The Impressionists And Neo-Impressionists And The Application Of These Theories Within Painting Experiences Of The Adolescent Student, Frank Edwin Handy
Dissertations and Theses
I. Statement of Research Problem.
The research was an exploration into the broken color technique within the paintings of the Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists and the application of their techniques within the painting experiences of the adolescent student.
II. Resume of the Data.
The application of pure pigment directly, without blending, constitutes one of the major aims of the Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists. The breaking of color was done in many methods by juxtaposition of hues and values in various combinations to give the desired effect; it was applied through a wide range of brush techniques such as comma-shaped, spots, hatchings, and …
Figure Painting In The High School: Experiments And Recommendations, E. Leonora Perron
Figure Painting In The High School: Experiments And Recommendations, E. Leonora Perron
Dissertations and Theses
My research problem was to experiment with four high school art classes in drawing and painting the figure, to draw conclusions about how they relate to working with the figure, and to recommend methods that appeared to be most successful in broadening viewpoints, developing skills and increasing interest and involvement in art. This problem was selected because teenage students, in the vast majority of cases, have great difficulty in drawing or painting figures and, therefore, strenuously avoid it.
I discovered that a subjective approach that recognizes personal feelings, along with one that requires close looking, seemed to get the most …
The City, Lee Merriwether Clark
The City, Lee Merriwether Clark
Dissertations and Theses
This thesis is composed of five oil paintings and four synthetic paintings. The works are arranged in a sequence beginning with distant over views of the city and progressing toward more immediate views. Techniques change also, from the suggestive impressionistic mode, a style I explored in my early years of art education, to a studied application of large, solid, simplified shapes of color. In my work, realism is sacrificed for a decorative arrangement of color patterns.
From this creative experience I have reached conclusions about art education and my responsibility as an art instructor. Motivation is essential when introducing all …
Color In Salt Glaze, Daniel Lee Stevens
Color In Salt Glaze, Daniel Lee Stevens
Dissertations and Theses
This thesis endeavors to bring a brief history of salt glaze to the reader, following its genesis in Germany to England and the American colonies and its continuation to the present day.
In order to conduct research on color in salt glaze, a kiln had to be built for this purpose, meeting all the requirements that this technique demands.
Studies were made on clay bodies to determine their throwing qualities as well as their ability to take a salt glaze.
Finally, research was carried out in many series of tests studying the reactions of' various engobes and other coloring materials …
The Development Of A Clay Body With Compatible Glaze Formulae, Nancy Travers
The Development Of A Clay Body With Compatible Glaze Formulae, Nancy Travers
Dissertations and Theses
There are two aims in this thesis: the first is to ascertain something of the physical and chemical properties of clay and glazes and how to handle and control them. A project such as the development of a clay body and glaze formulae serves to isolate the various functions of the materials and give a clear understanding as to their use and potentials. This enables one to visualize and manipulate materials creatively with a reliable prediction as to their behavior. Spencer Moseley in Art Education supports this, saying: "The quality of a man’s production depends upon (1) the idea, the …
Birth And Rebirth As A Cultural Symbol, Roberta Foss
Birth And Rebirth As A Cultural Symbol, Roberta Foss
Dissertations and Theses
The corpus of this thesis study consists of a group of monoprints and paintings as well as a written commentary intended as their accompaniment.
The investigation of such a topic as Birth and Rebirth has involved a concern with the existence of symbology meaningful to the topic. The term culture can be clarified to mean both the artist in particular as well as culture in a collective sense. The possibilities of the topic semantically would involve an essayist’s approach. This thesis is not a pictorial essay. Birth and Rebirth as terms evoke images which a painter can simply treat as …
