1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Greenberg on Art Criticism: This video explains Clement Greenberg's reflections of his career and some art criticism by him as well. He also explains to the interviewer the relationship between modern art and the history of art. One of the most interesting things I learned was Greenberg's view on aesthetics and how artists are full of emotion and feeling while creating such work in order to portray the message they want in their artwork.
Italian Renaissance: This video explains an introduction to the Italian Renaissance with different examples of artwork from different artists. It shows the huge influence that Roman art had on this time period as well. An interesting thing that I had learned was that Donatello's sculpture of "David" is that even though the sculpture shows the balance on one legs the nudity sets aside the fact that it appears balanced.
2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Criticism project? If yes, explain how. If no,
explain why not.
These videos helped give me more insight on different ideas of art criticism and gave me examples how people in the past have critiqued art while providing me examples of such.
3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of art criticism?
As stated above, the videos were a great help by providing easily visible examples of understanding art criticism.
