Assyrian Art
.... the human headed genius and the griffin genius are facing towards the left with their right feet forward. Because of their stiff stance, these figures highly contrast the movement and action shown in the hunting scenes of Assurbanipal and war scenes of Assurnasirpal.
In term of stylization, both the human headed deities and Assurnasirpal have very stylized hair falling in straight locks to the back of their necks; furthermore, they possess highly stylized beards of intricate waves and ringlets which en .....

Germany, with their new drummer Pete Best, to try to establish
themselves in Europe. The band became a popular local act,
performing at .....

A Post-Modern Age
.... that may result in the society that traditionalists actually seek after; the balance between Nature and Technology. Modernity itself is merely the sense that the present is a transitional point, not focused on a clear goal in the future but simply changing through forces outside our control. I will first describe how "Modernity" came about, and then to indicate some of the features for which "Post-Modernity" is meant to be a reaction, response or addition to modernization.
Beginnings of Moder .....

.... the overlapping qualities that he desires. One example of this overlapping is the way many of the material puncture or grow out of the walls. In this project, the different materials played an important role in the forming of the building. Frank Gehry is Design Principal for the firm Frank O. Gehry and Associates, Inc., which he established in 1962.

Agony Ang The Extacy, Ethical Considerations Concerning Mich
.... interest in the arts, some later even becoming as influential as Buonarroti. So this, one could say, is more than just cause to say “exploit” Michelangelo and his artwork, the semi-sacrifice of one man’s happiness for a huge influence throughout the world and even throughout time! After considering this side of the pendulum we can look at the wrongdoing of Julius II through the eyes of Michelangelo. Michelangelo, an unmarried man, was very involved in his art, both personally and making a living .....

Amadeus Anaylisis
.... Even though the film is about the life of Mozart, Salieri gives a different point of view than anyone saw it before. Salieri's life centered around the desire to become Mozart, which eventually turned him against himself and everything he ever believed in. Salieri was convinced he was the best composer in Vienna, until he meets Mozart. The central idea of the film is how he becomes so frustrated with himself and his music, that he turns against himself and God. Now he has devoted his life to ruining Mozart .....

Amistad 3
.... Treated like objects from the beginning, a metaphor for the ideals and principles of European society. In contrast, blacks traditionally were even more simple than whites because they were viewed merely as objects of possession. Beyond of this simple representation, blacks were also viewed as threats, but they actually protected customs valued by their culture for posterity. Second, the arrival of the ship “La Amistad” brought forth passengers from another world further questioning human rights values .....

Analysis Of Casablanca

his hacked-up version of Hemmingway, and when the sparks start to settle
he has Bacall do a little number at the piano bar which may be
irrelevant, but Bacall's lovely and libidinous manor far makes up for
it. The film may lack class but it's all the more entertaining because
of it.
Bacall and Bogart strike a match at the start of the film and the flame
outlives Bogart. The chemistry is so strong between the two that you
can't help but believe there is more to .....

Analysis Of The Use Of Lighting In THE GODFATHER
.... is completely black, so that the only thing we can see is the man. Even though this is logically unrealistic, the stylistic decision to light in this manner is warranted, since this or any other good film draws heavily upon our expectations and imagination to convey a message or meaning. We as audience accept the unrealistic elements, if they assist in making the story more engrossing. There is another light placed so that the man has an obvious highlight in the center of his black eyes. This highlig .....

Andrew Warhol Art Or Not Art
.... The Campbell's Soup is one of the most famous and recognized paintings of Warhol. It was done in 1962 and is oil on canvas. "This painting defines his personal artistic repertoire of low cost consumer items. The soupcan is a mass market article of the American consumer and a recognizable symbol of Americans way of life." However, is this art or a duplication of a soupcan? It does symbolize America, but a replication of a soupcan is not considered art in my eyes. He's imitating a picture that anoth .....

Architecture 2
.... nowadays, architectural firms are adopting CAD programs, or Computer Aided Design as the main tool for designing buildings. It provides an easy to use interface over the previous pencil and paper method. As a result, CAD software is growing vastly in usage and many colleges are now offering courses just in CAD.
Often, architects have to make considerations before the actual design phase of any building. The most important of these is cost. If a building is made of cheaper building materials, th .....

Roesen achieves the illusion of depth by using vertical placement. The artist draws small objects placed low on the picture place.
To balance the work of art, Roesen uses the position of the bouquet in contrast to the other objects, like the glass and small fruits. The placement of these small objects at the edge of the table balance the .....

This mysterious figure looks so vacant that it might as well be dead. Nothing is happening on this side, so one's attention is directed to the other.
On the other side, a blue decaying hand emerges from the ground with ants crawling on it, possibly making their homes in it or finding food on it. Atop this pedestal, rest .....
