Classroom Discussion # 3

This week in class I liked learning the different ways of how to read art. For example when we were all shown the picture of the red chair I thought it was interesting hearing all the different responses from the class about what thoughts came to mind as they saw it and how many interpretations there were. One thing that came to mind as we were shown many different paintings, especially the ones of pure color, was what makes these paintings appealing to us. I mean all paintings are interesting but some seem to stand out more than others and become liked by a great population. What makes these kinds of paintings so popular. I guess the more we learn about art the more I will be able to find answers to these questions.

  1. It is neat to be able to learn about the meanings and uses of the different colors and schemes and how this reflects the subject behind the artwork. I never thought artwork was as complex as we have been learning in class.
