1. Explain why you
selected the video you choose from the selection listed above.
I selected The Measure of
all Things: Greek Art and the Human Figure because it sounded interesting,
no other reason.
2. For each video
list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
One thing that I learned from both of the videos is that the
Greek loved to create sculptures and were very talented in that area. I also learned from both the videos that they
were obsessed with the human body, making it look good and capturing that
beauty in sculpture form. Greeks were
very detail orientated almost to the point of being OCD about the perfection of
their sculptures.
3. How do the videos
relate to the readings in the text?
We learned about the importance of capturing life, as we know it
presently, so that future cultures can look back and learn from it. We learned also about what goes into creating
a sculpture and preserving it through time.
There is a beauty in the way things were made back then and the time and
dedication to perfection with them.
4. What is your
opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings
and art concepts?
As always I enjoy the films because I think that they add to the
readings and what we are learning.
