angle

In my opinion different angle give people different feeling. Specially at vertical angle, it represent power and weakness, High vertical angles gives viewer a commanding height feeling, and if viewer looking from bottom to top, it feels like you stand infront of huge object and on that time, you looks quite weak and small.

Then Horizontal angle gives viewer more direction to observe object. Detach(indirect) and involved(direct). Involved can bring viewer to same place and same feeling, it can seize viewer's heart.

VERTICAL ANGLE
The guy who stand looks more powerful, because they look people from top angle to down.
The guy clean shoes looks more weakness.


HORIZONTAL ANGLES
Frontal(involved)
He direct looks at you and smile to you, it makes you want to buy his fruit.

Oblique(detached)

Your favorite piece of art and why?
Artist Name:Wang jiuliang
Born: 1976,Shandong. Live in Beijing. He is a photography.This is picture shows us the Rubbish area in Beijing, I quite like this picture. Beijing is capital city of China, for people who does not live in Beijing, they could not see real life of Beijing. Beijing is a beautiful city in the China, It has beautiful outside and it only shows others beautiful side. And hide the ugly and dirty area. This picture shows real Beijing. Also tell people to keep environment clean. Do not just talk but shows your acts on it.

Your least favorite piece of art and why?
Artist Name:Chen chunmu

I real don't like this picture, because I do not know what is message from this picture.



I like White Rabbit Collection, it has a lot of interesting picture and art. The tour guide is quite funny, she use different way to tell story and mean about picture, i feel relax when i been there. Firstly, I am very surprise has full Chinese art collection in Australia. White Rabbit Collection's arts work shows what issue in China and Chinese government. Most art are touch my heart,also i feel sad when i saw some art.
I think we can not see any art work like this in China, because you can not say whatever you want to say about government. Most art work shows Chinese people think about China policy.
White Rabbit's head by Phyllis Rowlinson, he is a secondary teacher of 30 year's experience. And start search the theme which influences of Chinese history, language, religion and culture.

gaze picture

I choose two different picture of Huskey. They give me two feeling, one is uncomfortable, other is comfortable

Uncomfortable
This is photo makes me feel uncomfortable, because he just straight way look the viewer.











Comfortable
This is picture make me feel Huskey is cute and beautiful. He did not direct look viewer. Also his position give viewer feel cute.



I think the different position with same facial expression. It will give people two different feeling.

Gaze

Definition of Gaze: Gaze is you use eye to looking something or someone. There have two type of gaze, one is indirect,another is direct.

Direct( demand)
"Demand"picture are those which is parcitipant looking directly at camera. They have use eye to connect with viewer. Direct is easy to show people what they think&what they want.










Indirect(offer)
"offer" picture are not use eye to connect you, but they have use movement and other stuff to connect with you. For example: In this advertisement, people does not have eye connect with viewer, but they drive car and wind blow their hair. We can see it sales shampoo.

Winter


Impressionism






Impressionism began in France in the mid 1800s. Impressionism fascination with light and movement was at the core of their art. Monet, Sisley, Morisot, and Pissarro may be considered the "purest" Impressionists, in their consistent pursuit of an art of spontaneity, sunlight, and colour.

In my opinion of the movement, the impressionism just like camera which can take most beautiful second picture, and become forever memory. But it does not have focus point in the picture. I like Pissarro-Boulevard Montmartre at Night, They have some space could like people to think. Is it this is sunny night or it is rainy night. I quite like Impressionism art work, because it only draw a normal thing such as: river, people, garden... The movement give you a beautiful view.

reference:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impressionism
The White Rabbit Collection is one of the world's largest and most significant collection of contemporary Chinese art. Founded by Kerr and Judith Neilson, it focus on works produced after 2000.
When i first time to click this website, I feel this website it is Chinese style, because they have put Chinese moon cake,teapot and Chinese style scissor-cut to become background.

ARTISTS
Name: CHEN HANGFENG
Born: Shanghai, 1974.
"I want to create more artwork which can make people think."
The first time i look Chen's work, i feel it just a normal Chinese scissor-cut. but when i take a good look at this artwork agian. I see there are few famous brand name on it: Macdonale, Lining, NIKE,ADIDAS,APPLE,Sony Ericsson,PUMA... to become a phenix.

3D pavement- Art



Participants:

1.Viewer
I am a viewer for this photo, i think all the people can be viewer.
For the viewer the picture on the pavement draw by Julian Beever,it is have good connect with angle, because it is use right angle to show viewer a 3d art work without any computer technique, it is just draw by art technique. That is so cool. I think this picture also shows us, art not just a picture on the wall, it can be in anywhere. Any it can express to us in the different way and have different view.

2.Producer
I think in this work is have 2 producer.
One is Julian Beever who draw this art on the pavement , he is English chalk artist who has been creating trompe-loeil chalk drawing on pavement surface since the mid-1990s. He uses a special technique called anamorphic to create the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle.

Second is the person who take this photo. It shows a 3D pavement.

3.Represented
In this picture we see a river, crocodile and Julian Beever with a girl sit on a boat. It is uses 3D feature to draw this picture on the floor. It have stereoscopic feeling when people see it. It just like they real go boating in the river. I think this picture is a kind of art movement"street art"
