Art History II

DB 8.1 discussion

Let's take a look at the extensive career of Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011), who found a way to incorporate all of the innovative techniques artists were experimenting with starting in 1945. Her paintings have elements of action painting, abstract expressionism, color-filed painting, non-objective subject matter. They are also aesthetically pleasing to a large audience. Search for a Frankenthaler painting online, or even an image of her working on a painting, post it and discuss which of these new techniques in art making you see her using. Be sure to cite your resource(s) and properly give credit where credit is due!

Unit 8.2 Discussion Forum

Now we are getting to a point in art history where we have to talk about art in a different way than before. There's a lot involved in the process and the intention of the art that isn't always clearly identified. Let's talk about that process of trying to figure out what abstract art is all about. After going through this Unit, do you think you could go to a modern art museum and try to understand what's going on? Do you think you have the tools needed to ask the right questions, look for the right clues, and understand something new?
