Class #9 Followup

The interpretation that I most agree with is paraSITE that was invented by Michael Rakowitz. I find it so nice that he went out of his way to make something as impressive as this. He not only thought of himself but he thought of other people that do not have a home or don't get that kind of heat or air they need in order to survive. I also enjoy the way that he made it work. It can be put to be inflated by any side of a building, so that the homeless don't really have to search far to put it up. I think he has a done a great job investing his time to help others. It's a wonderful gesture.

Class #11 Symbolizing your Society

This is banner for the society I created with my two other group mates. It depicts the relationship between robots an humans that are in our society. How much we get along and that not only so we control the robots but they can also stand for themselves. The green around is also represents the environment and greeny feel we have in our society.

Class #11 Followup Questions

1.

Holbein, Hans /Younger/ Sir Thomas More,  oil on canvas, 1527

I believe that this painting is iconic because it is based on someone who is well-known. He was someone very famous so if someone had this painting hanging in their home, people would see it and think "wow he was so famous, this painting is iconic".

2. 

 Yves Klein, Anthropometry ANT 85, 1960. 155.5 x 352.5cm. 
(body prints of female models painted with his universal blue)

This painting to me is symbolic and indexical because it symbolizes women. It is body prints of females. It is also indexical because you can see the relationship between the models that were used for and the painting. 

3. 

I think that this image is symbolic because it represents love. This symbol is used a lot throughout the world, when on a social network when texting someone. I know many people who use it to represent love. For example, "I <3 You".

4.

                                                  Francesca Woodman,  35 mm Photograph

This photograph to be is indexical and iconic to me because you don't know but you can somewhat tell that there is a relationship between the lady sitting down and the women jumping. It is iconic because it looks like a photograph that has a lot of meaning behind it and because of how old it looks.

Class #7

 

The two works that I have chosen are the "Plaque with the Virgin Mary as a Personification of the Church" (left) and "Bowl with Rosette" (right). The first artwork I chose is from Germany and it dates ca. 800-825. The second one dates 800-1005 and is from Islam. I believe the audience to the first artwork is of people with strong religious beliefs and are active in the church, the second would be anyone who is into ceramics or objects from long ago. One would be bearing witness to the church  and Mary and the other one would be to Islam culture. The difference between these two works is that one has more detail than the other, it's carved it makes you want to more about it and the other one is sort of just a plate with a flower in the middle but somehow there is so much more to it. I do not think that each artist knew about the other's traditions because they reflect two different things and they don't really connect in a way. I do think that the European mainstream work deserves a place in the mainstream story of art because it has to do with religion and it's different to what's on there now. I also believe that the non-maintstream work belongs in the mainstream story of art because it's also different, it isn't your typical sculpture or drawing. It's something simple with a lot of meaning behind it. 

Cooking up a Story

                                                   Chuletas (porkchops)

 

Steps: 

1) let the meat thaw out

2) wash the meat

3) take the ingredients out to season the meat

4) season with adobo first

5) then with the cumin

6) italian dressing comes after

7) black pepper

8) salt

9) then with a fork mix the meat with the seasonings

10) after take your dish and your oil

11) put the oil in the pan until it heats up

12) then one by one drop the meat in

Once they are done, they are usually served with rice and beans or how i like to eat it just with a piece of italian bread. This dish is simple and is usually made whenever one is in the mood for it or during a special occasion but it's nothing big. This meal is used by everyone in my family and everyone makes it the same.
