Is art losing its value


I think an original artwork losses its value either its been stretched or the top part of the art work been cut to fit on paper, game covers, CD covers, DVD covers or on a poster and like this picture it has been reproduced many times, its also had other things added to the picture like words, change to the colors and adding other characters to make the picture look good. This picture looks like its lost its fetchers witch means its been cut down on the left side and its also lost its original colors. I think pictures loses its value and it also makes you wonder witch picture is the original. Its kinda hard to spot the value on the picture. I also think the original picture has its value if people look harder and spot its value in the artwork its self.

My idea for my painting


The idea i am going with is this superman ripping his shirt off and also paint a woman where the S logo is and paint the logo on her face just to show people who that  man is that is superman. My idea that I'm using is to relate my other two paintings that I'd done and thought i will combined them together so that my paintings relate to each other. The woman that I'm painting was out of this magazine that id ripped out of just so i can paint her and also have a chance to paint something that is actually real to paint in stead of a painted picture that spouse to be real. I used Joe Quesada for an idea in my last piece because the art work are both incoming with super hero's. The movement for my art work is Figurative. are two figures that are recognised superman and a woman.

moving art.

The idea in moving art is looking at a odd picture an seeing if it moves that's the key idea of what the artist is showing it also plays tricks on your mind by making you think if the image is moving. The key idea is illusion, this art work is an illusion and it makes people think when they look rely hard to see if it is moving. Some times art work like this makes you focus on that one little dot and your eyes See's another dot move and when you go to have a look it rely never moves that's what i mean when your mind plays tricks on you. The swerve lines and the dots creates the illusion when they look very fearfully at the picture. The key idea for this picture creates the use of flow witch makes the some of the line gets sucked into the center of the canvas.

This art movement work is the vibration (metal movement) 2006 from Monica Karppinen.

Edith Amituanai

Edith photos could be represented in a south auckland community because her photos that she takes, are of her island life style witch i think in most homes in the south auckland districts are kinda similar. Edith had taken a photo of her living room and she described how her family's living room look like. she also had taken photos of other family's living room witch also described how they live. i think to me her photos that she takes describe how some family's live different to others like in a cultural way or in a normal life style. i think her photos would good to represent the south auckland community because of the island cultural that most of the people are in.

ross brown

(Photography is, first of all, a way of seeing. It is not seeing itself. by Susan Sontag.) (Ross believes that advertising photography can be an art form in its own rights as an evident in his work. by Ross Brown) thats kinda the same as what ross dose with his work because he see's his work in a way for example he use's people and animals together in his photos. i like the way he combined animals with people because it shows how creative his with photos are. i like how he dose this photos that has a arm coming out of a new's paper with a train going past i think it is interesting how he made the photo like that, some times it makes me wonder how he makes photos like that because it changes reality in this way.

this photo that also makes me wonder how he dose the photos using the people and animals witch i think is cool, for example he has a photo of the all blacks i think having a game with lions witch i find interesting to me, also when he uses dancers in a photos its interesting to see a dancer hanging on a Carin. in advertising you don't often see adds in art gallery but you see them on billboard or t,v on posters and in the news paper but with art you don't really see them on billboard and on t,v. Ross is saying his advertising could be art if people stop and take a look at what the message he is tying to send like the all black taking on the lions, that might mean the all blacks are taking on a team from south africa because lions are from africa or it might mean that the all blacks are a strong team so they go and take on the lions.

the picnic

this image that i like shows how they all seem relaxed and happy.  i think the main focus in this photo graph is the farther and his kids. i see a girl with her back faced towards the camera as the for ground. mid ground that i see is the farther and the kids. in the background  their are more kids and adults out in the background also their is a person looking at the person taking the photo. i like how the little boy is relaxing right next to his dad it kinda makes me think that the dad and the little boy are rely connected to each other and so are the other kids.

Albrecht Durer

Albrecht painted himself using the traditional conventions like oil paint. Durer also used wood as paper or a canvas to paint on. painting a portrait of your self would be kinda hard because you have to paint your self without making a movement. i think when you do a self portrait painting its about memory as well because when you paint your self your moving as well. Albrecht Durer self portrait painting is one of the first ever self portrait paintings. Albrecht used the traditional conventions to paint him self witch made people think that albrecht was portraying Christ, because people used to paint traditional paintings like Christ and that .
