Reading

I was reading the video art article on blackboard and there was a part I really liked. I liked where it says, "This makes the video art form an apparatus by which the yet unfinished project of Modernism rolls forth. For if one of the impetus of Modernism in the arts was to create artistic forms responsive to the dynamic changes of industrialization, a celebration or critique, then video deeply internalizes this vocation. Video as an apparatus fundamentally prescribes modern technology and imbues it, thereby with meaningful use." That statement is meaningful to me because it is talking about the day we live in. So far in class we have gone over different art forms from many cultures from ancient times and throughout history. In our day we have so much technology and it is cool to see how we have created and adapted art to tell stories in the form of movies.
