So I was surfing the web and came across this Art Exhibition, which was just recently up for viewing in Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, October 11, 2008–January 18, 2009. Also in High Museum of Art, Atlanta, May 23–August 16, 2009. When I went to the site I noticed that the pieces related to some of the lessons we are learning in class. For example one piece I believe it is called "Hercules Fighting the Fury and the Discord" the artist uses many different line marks to create the figures, such as cross-hatching,straight lines, implied lines, contour lines and more. Another pieces relates to our lesson on color. The piece is called "Soviet/American Array III", 1988. The piece looks like it is composed of different photographs that have been altered in color. The artist places the photographs in a way that balances the composition. To see the pictures I am describing go to http://www.nga.gov/cgi-bin/pimage?53771+0+0 for the first picture then go to http://www.nga.gov/exhibitions/2007/rauschenberg/rauschenberginfo_fs.shtm for the second picture.
