Presentation 4.28

1. I love Impressionism personally. Your analysis of the color use and the impressionism's painting techniques was really good. There is so much to talk about Impressionism, comparing it with Realism. However, why are you comparing painters before Impressionism? How did Impressionism influence the art after it? I didn't really get what is your thesis for the paper.

2. I think there is a lot of meanings and motivations behind Surrealist. I suggest that you might want to explain more about Freud's philosophy on “subconsciousness”. How did it inspire surrealism? You talked about symbols a lot, which were very interesting.

3, Graffiti takes on a political approach. The connection between the society awareness and graffiti is very interesting. There are so many different types of graffiti because the culture difference. Is graffiti powerful enough of to achieve what it is trying to achieve? You have a lot of information there about graffiti. I think your paper will be a really good.

4.This series of art work is very interesting, and I like how you connect them with our normal perspective toward the same objects. You said a lot of different things about each piece, if you could make them all come together, that would be really nice. Another question, why did you choose all the large scale ones?

5. I don't really know anything about Chicano art. I've only seen it I don't really understand why they would portrait the virgin that way. What is the piece trying to tell the viewers? Just the gender bias?
