REFLECTION

Blog was very new for me. I have learned a lot from the blog. Now, i know how to work on my own
blog. I can post my blog work and i can see other students work on the blog. I spent the entire of time
on the blog posts outside of the class. Everyday i open my blog account and find what is new. Blog is the another way to express your idea and expression. In that case we can say blog is one kind of art. My favorite activities on the blog is giving commands on others blog and also getting some commends from somebody. If somebody commends on my blog so i can know how i am working.

Blog post# 4 - Met Meseum Paper

                                I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art trip and i saw the cultural halls which include Egyptian art and Greek art. I want to highlight the Egyptian culture.

                               Arab Republic of Egypt, is a country in North Africa that include the Sinai Peninsula, a land bridge to Asia. Covering an area of about 1,001,450 spuare kilometers (386.660 sq mi), Egypt boards Libya to the west, sudan to the south and the aza strip and Israil to the east. The Northern coast borders the Mediterranean sea; the eastern coast borders the Red Sea.

                               Ancient Egypt was a civilization in eastern North Africa concentrated along the middle to lower reaches of the Nile River in what is now the modern nation of Egypt. The civilization began around 3150 BC with the political unification of upper and lower Egypt under the first pharaoh, and it developed over the next three millennia. The Metropolitian Museum's collection of Egyptian art is one of the finest and most comprehensive outside Egypt. Consisting largly of pieces excavated by the Museum's curators and archaeologists, the collection is particularly rich in the arts of the middle kKingdom (ca. 2000-1640 B.C) and early New Kingdom (ca. 1550- 1300 B.C) and in the funerary arts of the third intermidiate and Late Periods ( 1st millenennium B.C) 
                               From 1906 to 1936, the Egyptian Expedition of the Metropolitan Museum's Department of Egyptian Art conducted excavations at several sites in Egypt. During these three decades, while working in the cemeteries in western Thebes, across the Nile river from the modern city of Luxor, the museum's archaeologists uncovered a number of intract tombs belonging to nonroval individuals.  By the terms of the Museum's contract with the Egyptian Antiquities service, the finds from these tombs were divided, with approximately half going to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and half coming to New York.

Asian art

"Krisna killing the horse demon keshi"





I like to reserch a nice brick and stone sclupture called "Krisna killed the horse demon keshi" is located in Metropolitan Musiem Of Modern Art in New York. It is beautiful and i can imagine it has a story about.


According of the Mertopolitan Museum of Modern Art's Helibrunn Timeline of Art History
(http.//metromuseum.org/toah/works-of-art/1991.300), this sculptur from India (Uttar Prodesh) remain us the Gupta period. It tells us a story about Hindu religion and the fight between Krisna (God of Hindu) and his devil uncle Keshi.This sculpture also shows that Krisna killed his uncle's horse. They had fight. This all about  religion.


The fourth Book of the Vishnu Purana (between 1st century BCE to 4th century CE) also tells the story. However, Keshi first appears in the episode when Kans calls the host of his demons to kill all male children, once he realizes Krishna is born. Chapters 15 and 16 of the fourth Book presents a detailed account of Keshi's death which parallels the Bhagavata Purana account. The narrative of Arishta's death, Narada's disclosure to Kans and the subsequent ordering of Keshi is the same. The fight started on the earth and sky when Keshi coming to kill Krisna with his open mouth.The hand of Krishna choking Keshi at the same time, tearing his body into two halves.


The "Vishnu Purana and the Harivamsa" (1st - 2nd century BCE) tell that Keshi is the last agent sent by Kans to kill Krishna, after Keshi's killing, Krishna and Balarama go to Mathura, where Kans is killed. However, the Bhagavata Purana describes the killing of the demon Vyoma sent by Kans, before he leaves for Mathura.[6]

American Museum Of Natural History

SHAMANIC CULTURE
I went  to the American Museum of Natural History and i saw the cultural Hall which embody African peoples, Asian peoples, Eastern Woodlands and Plains Indians, Maxico and Central America, Pacific and American peoples. I saw some Shamanic cultures with difference on the primary theme of death and rebirth that is found all fabulous tradition.Iwant to underline the Shamanic culture of Asia and much of Eastern and Central Asian. Shamanic is the idea that certain individuals, by going into a tempory state of trance, can communicate with the supernatural.

The turning point of powerful illness can be the central experience of the Shaman's beginning. It includes an oppose with forces that impair and demolish. The Shaman not only survives the ordeal of a debilitating sickness or accident but is healed in the process. Illness thus becomes the vehicle to a higher plane of consciousness. The evolution from a state of psychic and physical disintegration to Shamanizing is effected through the experience of self-cure. The Shaman is only the healer who has healed himself or herself; and as a healed healer, only he or she can truly know the territory of disease and death. They heal illness. They gain knowledge and insight from working with the spirits of nature, and thay gain knowledge with spirits of humans such as their ancestors. This art shows some believe illness to be caused by an evil spirit who has stolen the sick person's soul. The Shaman calls in to recover the soul of the sick woman (on the bench at left) and uses a characteristic technipue, the rhythmic drum- beating that induces trance. In trance he persues and fughts the evil spirit. Lest it seizes him and carries him away, his assistant holds him by a chain. Victorious, the Shaman takes back the woman's soul and restores it to her body. Then she recovers. The typical Shaman's dress with its symbolic metal ornaments, eash with special meaning, which sets him off from the group. The sick woman's mother stands at right, dressed in winter finery. Decorated bark panels at right walls are usually associated with summer houses.

The art maker plays an obscure situation in the society by the nature and supernatural power . For this reason, dreams are good or evil, helpful or injurious. The Shaman's practice is also charecterized by the soul fights. The shift of consciousness that the Shaman makes, which allows the free part of his or her soul to leave the body. During the soul flight the Shaman is both in the room, and going on the "journey" so that he or she has an awareness of both the same time. The Shaman sees illness as a lack of power because it was lost somewhere in their life. In order to heal he or she the Shaman returns their power. For thousands of years man has fought ill-luck in this way.

The Shaman also removes misplaced energy. The negative emotions you may feel, or the negative emotions that others can send at you seen by the Shaman to be stuck or stored in various parts of the body. This can be seen with the example such as how stress cause ulcers or back pains.

Survival in the Yakuts people of Eastern Siberia often precarious and Shamanism offers a means to control spirit forces that might bad luck to the hunter, to the reindeer herds or to the individual. For thousands of years man has fought ill-luck in this way.

For the Yakut, however, there is little conflict between indigenous beliefs in a world of spirot and the ability of Shamans to reach then, and the belief in the Christian God and saints and th ebility of priests to communicate with them. A Russian Orhodox icon on the black wall of this scene testifies to the Yakut conversion to Christianity. The Y akut and other Shamanistic peoples of Asia regard the world not simply as mute materuak surroundings but as a vital cetity classifiable by kinds of spirits, most of which need to be some how placated.

In conclusion, the scene was considered to be a practice of Shamanism. Men and women could be Shamans. The main duties of a Shaman were to cure sick people and prevent catastrophes.

Practice post# 4

Practice Post # 4
Artist: Mourice de Vlaminck

Formal evalution: The present ranks among the very gretest of Maurice de Vlaminck's flauve landscapes paint. Vlaminck's incendiary color and furious brush strokes draped on orderly compositions of familier subjects. Vlaminck was one of the considerable artists to use blemish of color to create a substantial picture, so he was very creative.

Contextual evalution: Vlaminck's painting does not have any high political or economec or historical connection, yet.

Expressive evaluation: Vlaminck drew his most profound artistic inspiration from the familiar local landscape. He paint with the color atmosphere, the sky with its great clouds and its patches of sun and trees with line and abstact shape.

Blogg post no: 2

Last week, we had lots of fun in class. we met Prof. Fernandez and we really had a good time. First, we drew a picture in our own notebook and wrote about the picture. Then we made group images because, we wanted to put everybody's ideas in an one image and it was really easy and interesting to work in a
group. Also, we mixed the calk and charcoal with Crisco to made colors.  I think Prof. Fernandez wanted to show us how people work in the past with animal fat and calk. We worked like a very oldest artist who lived together and worked together.

** I learned so much from first three chapter, i know what is art, what is creativity, visual toolbox: lines, shapes,colors, space,motion, light and time. Also,two dimensional, three dimensional,abstract art and so on...

ARTIST : ROBIN RHODE
Monument of the chairmam
by : Robin Rhode.


`

Robin Rhode conveys lines in an unconventional way (which often is spray paint or chalk on walls or roads outside) to describe an action. Rhode’s work creates an interaction between a person and these lines, that functions as performance art and graffiti at the same time. Rhode also often uses photography of this interaction to create a series that read like a real life flip book.  An example of this is shown above in Rhode’s piece, Monument to the Chairman.
