4,3,2,1 RIP to US ( Final project)


           I always believed that the best art is the one you put yourself in and relate to the meaning of the art with your own body. The meaning for my drawing is to show that we are just number to the world we live in and nothing is going to change if we don't change it. i used a bar code because bar codes is the representation of data relating to the object to which it is attached and it is attached to us humans, it that we can't see it. The bar-code has people exiting the bar-code and run fun that us when we step up and stop being numbers.  


 What experience did you intend the viewer to have when looking at your work? Why did you want the viewer to have this experience? And how does this relate to the society that you lived in?
                  I intend to give the viewers an unique experience of mixed feels when they see my art. My work mostly targets everything we do and take everyday in our life, from people, rather then ourselves. I made a work of art that need to be ignored to understand the full meaning of it. The affects that this art should have when you look at it, is a reflection of a person you are becoming or was in your life. Everyone no matter what race they are should have a different meaning. My intend to achieve this effect by using people inside especially, the ego and their imagination.
One reason i want people to feel the mixture of feeling is so they could relate and impinge their inner-self. People today are to lay-back and take in everything that's thrown to them. i need people to get up and make a change in their life if they don't like what they are doing like the drawing yells we are all just a number.
This drawing has a big impacted in society because society is treating us like just number and not human. Today there are over 7 million people in the world and most are known though ss#or numbers given by their government, king or anyone in greater power. My art is to change that system and watch people wake up from a world they dislike.

Real life Downtown (reaction to Downtown 21 extra credit)

          


         Downtown 81 was a great movie because it covered new art like music, graffiti, praintings that was coming to the light and akin to frimming and real life. in the movie the first seen was with Basquiat in the hospital with an undisclosed ailment.  when jean was leaving the hospital he saw Beatrice , who drives around in a convertible and later start to search for her. Has Basquiat got home to his apartment, he discover that his landlord was kicking him out. so he starts walking around to try selling a work of art to make some income for his day to day life. Jean eventually does manage to sell some of his art work to a rich woman who is interested in more than just his art, but she pays with a check.  Moreover, has he was trying to sell his art work, he meets up with musicians and a band which becomes his own band. As the film progresses, he wanders the streets of New York, looking for Beatrice. He find a bag that is a lady who turns into a princess, after he kissed her. As a reward, she gives him a lot of money. 
             i found this movie covered it's ideas perfectly. i like the fact that they showed Manhattan has it really was a unruly place full of garbage, graffiti, rubble-strewn lots, unlicensed after-hours clubs and highly idealistic kids eager to make their mark as big artists and musicians. Like the movie Downtown 81, downtown Manhattan was they same way it was they didn't change a thing and that what i really liked about the movie.

freaky mind only ( 18 and over please) MoMa ps1 reaction

  


                                  My visit to the MoMa Ps1 was very crazy and different from any other trip we took in the class. I really like this trip even if i went later on , but i wish i would for went there soon. Mike Kelley art was different in many ways. Kelley didn't approve of the society the way it was so he used his art to mock the community. Kelley used a lot of sexual and orgiastic art , but also used many colors and one item to show his art. When i hear the "moaning" in my head i was lost, like ' is someone having sex in here", it was his work of art. i believe Kelley work of art was to help people get out of their comfort zone , and to stop acting like if they don't have human needs. Another work of art that got my eye was the fruity colored teddy bears and the broken  glass, i like the fact that Kelly used one item to create a master piece like that. i believe his idea here was to tell use that we look having the some items over and over again. For example, clothes today i buy a black t shirt and tomorrow i buy a white one with Nike logo and next week i buy a red one that's polo at the end of the day it's the same items with different colors and names. in fact, Kelly made a new picture out of the colorful bears it was like a big monster. This give me the illusion for us and what we are becoming a monster. Kelly art was one of the best visit so far and also one of the most freaky one yet.

moma ( Magritte vs Dada ) we are family

Leopoldo liriano 


         My visit to the MoMa to see Rene Magritte art printings and watching the video on DaDa art was very  amusing. It showed me that both art aren't that much different in the meaning and that both art have similar characteristics that impacted their city during the time of birth. In fact, both are the same because both displays ideas of their society through different images.
         Magritte art was very interesting, his ideas was to show the art has a picture, and that art doesn't need meaning. So like that people could relate to it in many different ways. Magritte paintings of objects placed out of their usual context is related to that of DaDa. Dada was also a art that show no meaning in the art , but it did have entertainment and humor in it. Dada wasn't just of one person they were many loosely-knit group, like writers and artists that used any public forum they could find to talk on nationalism, rationalism, materialism. it's crazy how for both these movements, meant nothing and still impacted the people in the 1900's the way it did. The twain of these art introduced the meaning for nothings to their cities.

rene magritte the son of man painting
Magritte-The son of men,1964,oil printing 

 Magritte and Dada both used objects in their prints and always eliminated the true meaning of the objects and put another piece from a different object together to make art. Both artist used oil paint to create the work of art. in Magritte art he used a man and a apple, he replaced the mans face with the apple to recreate new meaning. in the picture of Dada they also removed oicture to create the picture, but the only thing is that in Dada they use more words. 

       Has you can see there is not much of a difference between Magritte and Dada because both separate piece from an object to put it in another project

Firm (The Camera in Black and White with Brilliant Thoughts)

Leopoldo Liriano  
Hua 101
                                               The Camera in Black and White with Brilliant Thoughts
To be frank this video was boring to the point I fall asleep, but I did get some important points that made me look back at my computer.  The firm Man with a Movie Camera, portrays dynamic images of life in 1920s Moscow, Kiev, and Odessa. The firm shows strong sense of shattering and uncertainty because it swiftly shifts from one subject matter to another in an unclear and messy sort of way, thus challengingly confronting the viewers with the task of finding a common thread that ties them together. I believe Dziga Vertov was brilliant for doing this in the early years of Soviet Cinema. My common thread to the firm was when I continued see a women in white  and others sleeping and after that I saw a black man and white lady putting their index finger in their months to signal to be quiet, but what really got my attention was that a storm appeared non-stopped after those other picture popped up. To my   understanding this is the “silent before the storm,” because the 1920’s was really known has the roaring 20’s.  Vertov twisted an uprising in cinematic art with his ideas of speeding and disordered firms that left some gigantic sized gaps in the film for viewers to fill, but this holes had meaning to a new leaf.

                Vertov film is much like the reality performed in portraits and literature, and should therefore be approached at any time. The society Vertov is trying to portray is that people are living their life the some everyday, they need to change it up, and that’s why other firm makers was so upset with Vertov because of the new idea he was begin of fresh life, rather than the same old thing over and over again.  When the camera eventually takes on a life of its own, as it grows legs, limbs, and begins to walk across the screen. Vertov try to reveal new life to firming and to the world itself.

critical thinks see art through different eyes

 I like this picture because it looks like their waiting for their leader to come forward. The image gives me the feeling of honesty and worship to someone. The fact the the people are red in the picture shows me that they give their all to their leader because it looks like they don't have skin.


 This picture was a room that looked like a 1800's court room or even church. What i love about this picture is that if you look at today's court room or Church nothing has changed in the pass couple of years. Many people still fellow the same format as the Romans when the Roman Empire was the biggest Empire in the world.  
 this image is a image of v Mary holding baby Jesus. The images that went to my head when i saw this picture was beautiful because the detail was amazing.  

 His art is gorgeous to my mind it looks to be a doorway in which everyone is glad up to wait for someone to come. This picture respects a great meaning oft honest because the door in the middle displays when a leader dies their soul would come thought the doorway to give advice.


 This image really got my attention because it means a lot. i believe is was a broken piece of art, but it could also mean that the man in the picture was beheaded because act for betrayal. Although the Egyptian  lived before the time for the Romans they had a mind that far head of there time because it many artifact that we see when has human still fellow the same path.

This picture took me about 10 mins this is one with out looking. This picture could mean a lot of meas because the person could be a child or adult.

This picture took me about 10mins as well. The meaning i gave this picture was meaning of sadness. the event is Halloween and also the person b-day so his dressed of Halloween and a ballgown with flowers , but the person is still sad.

assignment #2 cave vs turrell

Leopoldo liriano
Hua 101
 vs

                There are many similarities and differences between the artist from “The Cave for forgotten Dreams” and James Turrell the creator of the Light and Space movement “Aten Reign”. Even though both of them are from different generations, both still use the light to create life and movement in their art.
                The similarities between the artists form the cave and Turrell are greatly the same. The artist from the cave used the light from a flaming flicking troch to create life and movement on the art in the forgotten cave. The natural light from the troch created an illusion to the arties which made him/she believe that the drawing of animals was alive and moving. Turrell used natural light from the sun to create the life and movement of light. The different color of light helps create an evolvement to relaxation and meditation. Both these artist use natural light in their art to show life and movement in their art.
                The differences between both artist from the cave and Turrell are very different also, the artist from the cave uses an image, an object and a lot of focus on their art inside the cave, has for Turrell he believes in the idea of letting yourself see which in his art he uses no image, no object and little focus in his art. Moreover, the artist from the cave uses his art to expose real life in his/her time, has for Turrell he uses his art to relax the body with the light. Both these art use the natural light with different strategies to create their art come to life.
                One use natural light has a way to move and guide his/her art , well the other use it to help the body understand how to be in an art and to relax the mind. The artist from the cave and Turrell connected with the light to express meaning, movement , and life to their art.

assment 1 intro to art 101

                



         

My name is Leopoldo Liriano but everyone call me Leo. My major is civil engineering and I love being advantages.

   The artifact that I have chosen is the news paper. I believe that the news paper (paper or eclectic) has a big impacted in the life and world we live in today. The news paper allows and provides use with: information of what come and happening around the country, knowledge on what going on in the world, and connects use together to overcome good event and bad events. That's why the news paper is stupendous for this and every century coming up. Indeed, the topic the news paper covers: health, crimes, technology, political parties and when new events that will occur. This is why the news paper is a necessary in the world we live today.
