Art = Form + Content• In the most basic way art can be
thought of as having two parts:1. its form 2. its content
• Form relates to the “formal” aspects of art or how the art is made.
• Content relates to the subject of the art.
Fundamentals of Interpretation:
Formal and Contextual Analysis
Formal Analysis of Painting• Looking at a work of art to try to
understand what the artist wants to convey visually1. Line and Shape2. Color3. Texture4. Space and Mass5. Composition6. Scale
Style• Style refers to the consistent and
characteristic handling of media, elements of form, and principles of design that make a work identifiable as the particular culture, period, region, group, or person
• Style = Form and Composition – Makes a work distinctive!
Cultural Style
• Societies develop their own beliefs and style of material forms (clothing, buildings, etc)
• Artists are a product of their culture
Standing Vishnu, 10th Century ce, India, Tamil Nadu, Tanjore region. Bronze, H. 33" Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
Period Style• Styles change over time• Art changes because of
economic & political changes, new technology, religious insight
• Sometimes a desire for something new comes along
Regional Style• Geography also leads to diverse styles• May be conscious decision or caused
by a mere lack of communication over distance– Ex: variations in Maya architecture; Hindu
sculpture in India varies from North to South India; and abstract paintings produced in California differed from New York in the 1950s
Group Style• Sometimes artist form alliances,
exhibit together and publicize their aims as a group to promote a distinct style
• One of the best known group styles is Impressionism
Personal Style• Individual artists often have
characteristic modes of personal expression
Two Basic Forms of Style• Representational– Seeks to create
recognizable subject matter
• Abstract– Seeks to capture
the essence of a form, not literal representation
Representational Styles• Realism – the attempt to depict
objects accurately, objectively• Naturalism – similar to Realism
except often implies a grim subject• Illusionism – seeks to create a
convincing representation or illusion of reality
Realism
Naturalism
Illusionism
Abstract Styles• Non-representational – does not
produce recognizable imagery• Expressionism – Plays with
subjectivity, artist’s own ideas/feelings or viewer’s ideas/feelings– Exaggerates to get the essence of a
form
Non-Representational
Expressionism
