The Burgos Tapestry: Medieval Theatre And Visual Experience, Nathalie Rochel Frch '11 Dec 2013

The Burgos Tapestry: Medieval Theatre And Visual Experience, Nathalie Rochel Frch '11

The Fordham Undergraduate Research Journal

In the field of art history, the medium of tapestry has only recently begun to gain attention as its own significant art form. This paper examines the possible relationship between the Burgos Tapestry, recently on view at The Cloisters after a thirty-year conservation, and medieval theatre. The compositional and stylistic forms of the tapestry may have been influenced by productions of medieval mystery plays, which through analysis can help provide a greater understanding of the medieval cultural mindset, the possible artistic decisions behind maintaining medieval pictorial traditions into the early sixteenth century, and the medieval viewer’s experience when looking at …

Communicative Methodologies And Mechanisms In Public Art, Jeremy P. Jeresky

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Communicative Methodologies and Mechanisms in Public Art articulates my community based public art practice and MFA research based in London, Ontario. This dossier of research includes: a comprehensive artist statement, a case study and a documentation of artistic practice and development; in Chapters 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

I feel that developing a framework that is in concert …

Art And Symbolism: The Technique Of Applying Hidden Meaning And Communicating Specific Ideas Through Art, Andrea C. Macbean Dec 2013

Art And Symbolism: The Technique Of Applying Hidden Meaning And Communicating Specific Ideas Through Art, Andrea C. Macbean

Senior Honors Theses

Symbolism is an artistic style frequently used in the arts. Through the course of art history, it was its own artistic movement as well. The incorporation of specific symbols, shapes, colors, or identifiable images communicates to the viewer an intended message or statement. Frequently, symbolism appears to be hidden or initially unperceived by the intended audience. In some works, symbolism is so abstract that it needs explanation or clarification to be understood completely by the viewer. This thesis will analyze a few techniques of symbolism that can be incorporated in a work of art to communicate truth, entice thought, point …

Cultural Convergences, David Armistead Dec 2013

Cultural Convergences, David Armistead

All Theses

As far back as I can remember my family has had two primary outlets in regards to entertainment; going to museum exhibitions and attending or watching football games. My parents have been members of the High Museum in Atlanta for years while simultaneously having season tickets to Georgia Tech football. My current series of paintings, drawings, prints and videos examine the cultural significance of sports in American society; specifically American football. As a "big guy" who was raised in the south, it is often assumed that I played football at some point in my life. Admittedly, I feed this stereotype …


The Process Of Passage, David Gerhard Dec 2013

The Process Of Passage, David Gerhard

All Theses

My art navigates the fragmented religious traditions of my childhood in an attempt to clarify my thoughts and feelings about which spiritual beliefs and practices I want to teach my children. This navigation is represented across art media through portraits of my family and myself. As I was raised in a multicultural family that combined aspects of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, and Judaism, a complex navigation occurs within me to find meaning in existence amidst disparate traditions, cultures, and beliefs. For my thesis show, I adapted existing fragments and frameworks from these varied beliefs and cultural traditions into a collage of …


Remembering And The Everyday: The Fleeting, Fragmented, And Sensual, Alyssa Prince Dec 2013

Remembering And The Everyday: The Fleeting, Fragmented, And Sensual, Alyssa Prince

All Theses

Our memories are malleable. There is no identifiable truth; we consistently change them based on our present state of being. Nevertheless, our memories influence us greatly. My paintings engage this topic of the remembering process and display the active, reconstructive nature of how we remember. This idea is approached through making paintings that engage my own involuntary memories that are inevitably impossible to grasp. The resulting paintings explore issues pertaining to the remembering process, partiality, and the inaccuracies of representation. In this thesis, I discuss the importance of the reconstructed, provisional image, the fluctuating nature of our memories, an interaction …


Cybersociology A To Z, Katherine Butler Dec 2013

Cybersociology A To Z, Katherine Butler

All Theses

My prints explore the prevalence of the Internet in contemporary culture and how online communication has affected maturation and an individual's growing perception and representation of self. By combining commonly used Internet jargon and a traditional alphabet flashcard motif, I have created an Alphabet Series that allows me to draw comparison between online and offline spaces, as well as to describe the way in which the Internet as a social tool has changed communication mutually across the digital and actual realms. Using the most popular social media websites for North American adolescents as a reference, I have explored the way …


Untitled Narratives, Aubree Ross Dec 2013

Untitled Narratives, Aubree Ross

All Theses

Untitled Narratives is a photographic series about changing emotional states, and an evolving identity. The photographs represent a transformation between the confined and the free. The elements I use to portray the movement an individual makes between identities are a combination of a character and an environment. My photographs are driven by personal experiences and show recovery and openness. The character in the series is a representation of myself. The Character symbolizes emotional personas indicating past and present events, which shape the individual I am. I use the character as a representation of the hope and need for change. I …
