Videos I chose:
1. Drawing of Michelangelo
2. Albrecht Durer: Image of a Master
1. Explain why you selected each of the two videos you choose from the selection listed above?
The reason why i chose the first video is because i recognized the name Michelangelo and I wanted to learn more about his creations and what inspired him to do these creations. For the second video, I chose this one because it has the word "master" in it and I am curious to see what this "master" is going to show me in the video.
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The video entitled The Drawings of Michelangelo
1. Michelangelo created crucifixion drawings which were used to explore his conflicting feels consisting of hope and dread
2. Michelangelo designs the Medici family church of San Lorenzo during 1516
3. Michelangelo designs the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel during 1508
The video entitled Albrecht Durer: Image of a Master
1. Visual expression was given to Germany by Durer and he did this by mass printing his work to support Martin Luther
2. Durer is considered to be the first true landscape artist
3. Durer shows Germany Italian Renaissance
3. How do videos relate to the readings from the text?
When it comes to the first video entitled The Drawings of Michelangelo, it relates to the text because throughout the book that is required for this class, it shows various works from Michelangelo such as Michelangelo's David statue. When it comes to the second video entitled Albrecht Durer: Image of a Master it relates to the text because the book also shows artwork from Durer such as the aging statue named Donatello
4. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
My opinion for both of the videos is that they were pretty good to understand. For the first video entitled The Drawings of Michelangelo, it helps me understand the readings and art concepts by showing Michelangelo's techniques which are being used such as learning about the anatomy which was used to create realistic forms of the statues created. For the second video entitled Albrecht Durer: Image of a Master it help me understand the readings and art concepts by showing ways which explains to us how much detail is truly needed in order to create the aging process when it comes to artwork.
