  • Mark Rothko | The Seagram Murals

    Mark Rothko | The Seagram Murals
    2024/09/20
    Mark Rothko is one of the most famous painters of the Abstract Expressionist movement. While many look at his paintings as simple rectangles of various colors, he sought to express much deeper ideas and emotions in the most simple and direct way possible. He meticulously layered washes of oil paint to achieve deep, rich colors on massive canvases that overwhelm the viewer. The Seagram Murals were initially commissioned for an upscale restaurant in the building designed by Mies van der Rohe, but after eating there and seeing the space, Rothko returned the money and kept his paintings in storage because he felt the patrons would not understand and appreciate his work.

    Dr. Rosemary Lee | Art & AI
    2024/09/16
    Is an AI generated image really art? How might AI tools affect the way artists create their work? Will AI replace human artists? Rosemary Lee is an artist and media researcher. Her work considers how image production technologies fit within larger narratives about art, knowledge, and relations between humans and machines. Her book Algorithm, Image, Art considers recent developments in artificial intelligence in relation to historical tendencies in image production. She was kind enough to share her thoughts on AI in relation to artistic production. We talked about AI tools as a revolutionary moment with great promise and peril much like the advent of photography in the mid 19th century. We also discussed some of the ethical implications, the limitations of AI, ways that artists can work with the tools and some of the ways artists are shifting toward processes AI tools cannot replicate.

  • Emily Kame Kngwarreye | Earth's Creation (encore)

    Emily Kame Kngwarreye | Earth's Creation (encore)
    2024/09/13
    Emily Kame Kngwarreye was born around 1910, a time when the Aboriginal people were not considered full citizens in their own country. Earth’s Creation is an absolutely massive painting about 9 feet tall and 20 feet wide. She painted it in 1994 when she was around 84 years old. Most biographies will say that she only painted for the last 8 years of her life, but really, she was only painting for Western audiences for that period. She spent her life learning, practicing, and creating in line with the Aboriginal customs. Earth’s Creation is an absolutely massive piece she created in 1994. Kngwarreye was about 84 years old when she painted it. It shows an evolution in her style from the more earth toned traditional pieces she painted as she first began to work on canvas. In this piece we see rich blues, yellows, and greens referencing the lush “green times” that follow periods of heavy rain. She was moving beyond the clay and ochre pigments but still creating work deeply rooted in her connection to the land and nature. This painting is about 9 feet tall and 20 feet wide and when it went up for auction in 2007, it sold for an equally large price of just over $1 million. It set a record for the highest price of a work by an aboriginal artist and the highest price for an Australian female painter. A decade later it sold for over $2 million once again setting the record for the highest price by an Australian female painter.

  • Edgar Degas

    Edgar Degas
    2024/09/06
    Degas is famous for his beautiful depictions of ballet dancers, but he was also giving a glimpse into the tough reality those dancers experienced. Edgar Degas, born Hilaire-Germain-Edgar De Gas in 1834, grew up in a wealthy Parisian family with strong ties to the arts. In 1855, he entered the École des Beaux-Arts, where he trained under Louis Lamothe, a follower of the neoclassical artist Ingres. During this period, Degas focused on traditional subjects, such as historical scenes and portraits and he was fairly successful at it. Degas would be one of the few Impressionists accepted by the Paris Salon although not for the ballet dancers and the style of work we associate with him today. Degas was deeply interested in depicting movement and the human figure in action. Ballet dancers, with their graceful poses and dynamic movements, provided him with a perfect subject to explore these artistic challenges. These works provided Degas with opportunities to experiment with perspective, composition, and lighting. He used unusual angles and cropping to create dynamic and unexpected compositions, often emphasizing the patterns of light and shadow on the dancers' bodies and costumes. Ultimately, I think these works have stood the test of time because we can look at them through different lenses and still find something to appreciate. Whether social commentary, a peek behind the curtain and glimpse into another person’s lived experiences or simply an aesthetic experience reveling in the lights, the colors, the texture and flow of the costumes and the graceful movements of the dancers, there is something beautiful in the work.

    Gustave Caillebotte | Paris Street; Rainy Day (encore)
    2024/09/02
    Many know the image of Paris Street; Rainy Day, but somehow far fewer know the artist who painted it, Gustave Caillebotte. He was born in Paris in the mid 19th century just as massive changes were happening in urban development as well as with technology and society more generally. Caillebotte inherited a fortune that allowed him to follow his passion for art without needing to worry about what would sell. He loved the new style of the Impressionists and he not only exhibited with them, he supported them by buying their works which he eventually donated to the state.

  • Georgia O'Keeffe (encore)

    Georgia O'Keeffe (encore)
    2024/08/30
    Georgia O'Keeffe was one of the greatest American painters of the 20th century. She was among the most influential painters in developing modern abstraction and she influenced numerous artists who would come to follow her including Yayoi Kusama. Her famous red white and blue cow skull was painted as a sort of joke about the New York art scene filled with painters and sculptors seeking to create the quintessential American artwork even though in her estimation, most of them had never made it West of the Hudson River. O'Keeffe loved the desert landscape of the Southwest and converted her Model A into a mobile studio providing shade and some relief from the harsh sun.

    Yves Klein | Leap Into the Void (encore)
    2024/08/26
    This week we are looking at Yves Klein and his famous photograph, Leap Into the Void, from 1960. Klein had a short but highly influential career as he pushed the boundaries of what could be considered art. He made a symphony of a single note, used humans as paint brushes, and even patented his own color. My Guest this week is Tim Bogatz, host of Art Ed Radio from The Art of Education University. I have listened to Art Ed Radio for years, just as I have utilized the resources from AOEU and I highly recommend all my fellow art teachers listen, read and learn from Tim and AOEU.
