10 Famous Quotes About Art «TwistedSifter


Hello Gitte,
Thank you for teaching us the meaning of Art. I have shown you that I did not like the class during the semester, but I really liked the class. Before I took this class, I did not know about art. I remembered when I came, I went to the Art Institution. I got bored easily because I did not appreciate art. Now, the last two times I've been there, I could appreciate the art about how the artist painted their artwork. Artists also make drafts and their paintings are inspired by their life. In conclusion, any work of art we make for fun, it can be a work of art.

The Moma Beyond the Uniform has 5 floors. Each floor has different paintings by artists. The first floor has a artwork named "Wall Drawing #1144" by Sol LeWitt who worked at the MoMa before becoming famous. On the second floor there is a work of art that caught my attention. It was of the artist Keith Haring who created the artwork named "Untitled" in 1982. The artwork doesn't have a specific image, but the way it was drawn is very impressive. The artist did not make any draft of his artwork, he just painted at once. Maybe that's why people love taking photos of this artwork because of the way the artist made it.

Sculpture Perfomence


Ever since I was in high school, I have liked making letters with my hands. When I make a letter with my hands to someone I care about, it is a way of showing how much I love them. I made this piece of lid for a box. It was made by paper, carton and old pictures. This piece of art is for my best friends because it is almost her birthday.
