Week Thirteen and Fourteen - Blog: Video Review - DROP BOX


1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Key concepts for Low Brow video: is at first people view as porno graphic  because most of the low brow painting would be of  females being nude and hot rods. Low brow first came from Robert Williams in his book called the Low Brow art of Robert Williams and he does not like how the term developed.

Key concepts for the Tate approach video: is Henry Tate laid the foundations for the National gallery of British art and because he did this he was later known a Tate gallery. Alfred Hamilton Barr believed that art was self contained and had no relation to social intellectual political history. 

Key concepts for Native American Archaeologist video: is backrooms of museums  have thousands of Native Americans bones from construction found remains of twenty six white people and an Indian woman and her baby the archaeologists buried the whites but took the Indian for study. There genocide and Indians want their ancestors remains back. People working in


Key concepts for an acquiring mind video: is when the metropolitan museum of art  opened in 1870 it had  hundred and seventy four European painting.Thanks to de Montebellos leadership he helped the museum collection grow with all cultures and eras.

2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Exhibition project? If yes, explain how. If no, explain why not.
 I don’t think these four videos relate to the project because the project is about creating an exhibition like a art curator and these videos don’t really talk much about that. One is what low brow is and how it develops, second displaying modern art, third Native Americans remains and how archaeologists keep studying them and last is de Montebellos accomplishments for the museum.

3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of the art concepts you practiced while creating your curation project?
 
The films helped me understand about modern and low brow art and it brought about interesting topics that need to be looked at like the Native Americans being studied. They didn't help
to much with the project but it did helped me start brain storming for thinking of a topic.
