Introduction

Architecture as a discipline has evolved over time, with architects from different periods adopting unique approaches to architecture. In the 1950’s, the architectural world saw the introduction of the theory of the postmodern architecture . This came hot on the heels of the famous modernist approach to architecture, which had the support of various classical scholars and architects. The primary argument in this paper is the fact that the post-modernist approach to architecture was a representation of the effort by architecture to establish a voice of its own. This is built on the realization that architecture is a dynamic ...

The exhibition that requires our attention is the one at the Sculpture Center named is In Practice: Fantasy Can Invent Nothing New. Considering the somewhat large name and the game of words in it one would expect to find something exceptional despite the negation at the end of the name. However, this is turns out to be a reference to a lecture made by Freud, where he states that the creative process only facilitates the regrouping of already existing elements into a new perception. Despite the high level of expectation this exhibition did not deliver. Most importantly as it ...

Research shows that 20% of the men while 75 percent of the women were the survivors of the incident. Of the total 109 children ...

Opinion about Beauty

In most instances, people associate and relate beauty with an individual’s physical appearance. It can be a sexy body or a pretty face. The society often categorise beauty based on how individuals look and hardly do people realise the inside beauty. Furthermore, the society often preoccupies itself with physical attraction, and it ignores the personality and attitude of a person. Personally, I firmly believe that beauty is a multifaceted concept that individuals should evaluate in different dimensions. Moreover, people have diverse perspectives on beauty; therefore, there are no universally accepted definitions of beauty. What one individual may perceive ...

The artwork particularly emphasized the manufacturing of the porcelain objects, but it emphasized the illustrations that were portrayed as “sequential viewed sets,” thus, it created a set of ordered visual illustrations. In light of this, it would ...

Among the outstanding architectural masterpieces of the XX century the Guggenheim Museum at Bilbao definitely stands out. This is not only because of its blatant deconstruction, but also the value it is to the city, as a museum and an architectural piece. Frank Gehry made his masterpiece as contemporary as possible. To such extent that even critics lament about his novel style and vision of architecture. In Spain, hardly anyone can be surprised by whimsical architectural forms, bearing in mind the works of Antonio Gaudi in Barcelona. However, Frank Gehry seems to have outwitted the latter. What he created, ...

Museums play significant role in a cultural live of every nation. Hans Haacke called museums “managers of consciousness”. He explained, “museums give us the interpretation of history, of how to view the world and locate ourselves in it” (Leeuwen et al., 2013). I, personally, agree with this citation. Especially it is true for such nations as Welsh who are trying to identify themselves while being a part of Great Britain. Cardiff, as a capital of a state, performs as a cultural center of the nation with great amount of cultural sightseeing including museums. National Museum of Cardiff is a ...

While the political avant-garde of modernist movement had a celebration of dissidence and proceeded to advocate a revolution of art and contemporary life, postmodern art delightfully exist in a world that shows the pluralism of atheistic manner and way of play.

Gender issues, class, and race become central particularly following ...

If one tries to figure out the first illustrations on the planet, they will be taken back all the way to the cave paintings by ancient men.

When discussing Bauhaus and Vkhutemas, it is observed that Vkhutemasis the lesser known of the two. However, both were an experiment, artistically and socially and called for more attention.

Review trends in the general Theatre environment

Many forces exist in the movie film industry. For example, exhibitors have invested an estimated $1.6 billion since 2005 to converting theatres to digital projections.

Despite the enormous amounts of investment made, exhibitors are yet to make financial benefits because the attendance has been decreasing. The domestic economic sector still faces unstable conditions, and this has continued to exert financial pressure on consumers. Americans remarkably spend a lot of time which is estimated ...

Art today finds itself under the attack of the consumer society, which approaches it with the same lack of curtesy as it grants consumer goods. This may seem to create a loss of value for art which has become easy to reproduce. While in the past, art was removed from the everyday context, and only the privileged few had access to it, today, it is not only more easily accessible, but even the poorest people can afford to have their walls decorated with reproduced versions of paintings by famous artists. Being able to access it so easily, art loses ...
