Examining Artworks

When you see an interesting movie, do you keep the experience to yourself, or do you tell your friends about it? This eagerness to share experiences and feelings with others is a typical human trait. It is also a reason why artists like to make art. Artists are people who use imagination, creativity, and skill to communicate ideas in visual form. Artists often use problem-solving skills to effectively communicate their ideas. These ideas may represent experiences, feelings, or events in the artists life.

ARTISTS AND THEIR WORK

Artists are creative thinkers who often use their problem-solving skills. Artists combine a knowledge of art materials, tools, and methods with a rich imagination and deep sensitivity. They use this combination to present their views of and reactions to the world around them.

Fine Art


Have you heard the expression Art for arts sake? This expression refers to art valued

for its visual appeal or success in communicating ideas or feelings. Such art is known as

fine art. Fine art can be made with a variety of materials. The sculpture in Figure 1.1 is made

of bronze.

Applied Art


In contrast to fine art, applied art is art made to be functional as well as visually pleasing. Many of the objects used in daily life can be classified as applied art. Jewelry, pottery, and furniture are examples of applied art. Another example is the art object in Figure 1.2. You probably have one of these items in your home. Its a teapot. Look closely at this particular teapot. Notice the unusual design of the pot. Examine the painting on its surface. Did you notice the lizard that is perched below the teapots spout? This teapot can be classified as applied art because it serves a practical purpose and is visually pleasing. How does it compare to the teapot in your home? Today the distinction between fine and applied art is fading. The teapot you just examined is displayed in a museum. As you will learn in the chapter on crafts, various items such as drinking vessels, pitchers, and bowls, have come into their own as fine art.
