Art Gallery #2

https://www.burchfieldpenney.org/exhibitions/exhibition:07-12-2013-09-15-2013-ben-perrone-illusion-dellusion/

Step 1:
#1. Ben Perrone: Illusion/Delusion

#2. A tribute made to service men and women.

Step 2:
#1. Track lighting to focus on the piece mainly.

#2. Just plain white.

#3. Regular dry wall, not much else I think so that the art catches the eye first

#4. It is kind of all over but it leads you to making a decision of where you want to go and it is like little surprises each time.

Step 3:
#1. Very organized, easy viewing access.

#2. After seeing the tribute to service men and women I noticed many other things pertaining to service men.

#3. The way that some were represented through objects like bags displayed to show the lives lost then there were actual photos.

#4. Inside a glass case.

#5. It gave a description on a piece of paper saying name, title, dates, and media.

#6. Spaced a great amount away from each other. I think to ensure that the viewer actually can study the artwork and try to understand the meaning behind it, symbolizing the importance.

Artwork #1:
Phillip Burke
Neil Young
Oil on canvas
1956
48x60 inches
 

This painting shows a man that looks like a rockstar. It is very colorful and catches the eye easily with the vibrant colors. This is a old man, smoking a cigarette, and playing the guitar, it seems very 80's to me. The principles used include rhythm in the use of the color in the entire painting and emphasis on the entire man himself in the way of the colors. The elements used include color used within himself, the guitar, and shirt. Shape in the way it resembles the man himself and the guitar. I think the artist tries to represent the way a musician can bring so much life and happiness in their music.

Artwork #2: 

Emil Schult

Robert Moog

Reverse Glass Painting

This picture looks like it could be very old with the old style man and what looks like a machine with a splash of color to give it a little life. The principles used in this painting include movement in the way the painting looks like it is being pulled in the middle to one side. Pattern in the colors used and the proportion of orange and yellow. Elements used include color in the way orange and yellow are incorporated. Line and shape both in the way the painting seems to be getting pulled to one side. 

Artwork #3:

Ben Perrone

Illusion/Delusion

Black paper bags

2009

At first looking at this artwork it gets my mind thinking of what could this artwork represent? Then after reading the description it seems dark and sad. The paper bags looking small to a huge amount on the top looking like an upside down pyramid. The principles used include proportion with the way the bags are aligned. Emphasis with light to create an importance on the black bags. Elements used include shape how it looks like an upside down pyramid. I think this artist is trying to show the significance of the people lost during war. 

Question:

It was cool to go see how the artists are different from each other and how they are incorporated with each other.
