THE FRAMES!

Subjective:

- an examination of the personal and psychological experience and how it became the basis of artistic expression in modernism.

Themes that will be examined include:

art as a personal insight to revealing the mechanics of a new modern world

the development of the expression as a component in modern art

the human consciousness of modernism
art as personal worship
artists as heroes
the revolution of the nights: art and the unconscious.

Key art movements that will be investigated utilising the subjective frame in terms of investigation for the case study:

Post Impressionism
New objectivity
Expressionism
Surrealism
Abstract Expressionism.

Key theorists that can be utilised include:

Immanuel Kant
Charles Baudelaire
John Ruskin
Roger Fry
Clive Bell
Wassily Kandinsky
Hans Hoffman
Clement Greenberg.


Structural frame:

- an examinination of the modes of communication and the establishment of a system of signs, which were constantly being renovated to provide new aesthetic orders. You will interrogate key aspects within modernism that exemplify the avant garde condition and establish new visual conventions.

Suggested themes that examine key concepts within the structural frame:

Is what I see really what I see?: Post Impressionism and Cezannes doubt.

Fractured perceptions: Cubism and the multiplicity of vision.

Art and emotions: Art Brut and CoBrA employing the aesthetics of a child.

New media: photography and cinema; the establishment of new visual conventions.

Gestural and minima: the importance of technique and idea to produce an art work.

From nature to machine: the rise of modernist visual conventions that sought to replace nature with a machine aesthetic.

Key art movements that will be investigated utilising this frame in terms of the case study:

Post Impressionism
Cubism
Art Brut
Neoplasticism
Dada, surreal and German expressionist cinema and photography
Abstract Expressionism
Colour field.

Theorist and historians to be investigated include:

Paul Cezanne
Wassily Kandinsky
Clement Greenberg
Piet Mondrian
John Ruskin
Ernst Gombrich
Andre Breton
Johannes Itten

Cultural frame:

- an examination of the manifestation of ideological paradigms and the social and cultural meanings made apparent throughout the modernist period. The cultural frame will explore artworks as concepts:

Taste and money: development of bourgeoisie class and its impact on modern art.

Brave new worlds: constructivism and futurism, forms of cultural revisionism.

Anti-art: Dada art and anti bourgeoisie conventions.

The (new) grand narrative: American culture & Abstract Expressionism.

Expressionism down under: Antipodean aesthetics and search for national identity.

Cult of the celebrity: the aesthetic principles of Pop Art.

Key art movements that will be investigated utilising this frame in terms of the case study.

Dada
Futurism
Constructivism
Abstract Expressionism
Angry Penguins
Pop.

Theorists and historians to be employed for investigation:

Marcel Duchamp
Clement Greenberg
Michael Fried
Michael Wood
Robert Hughes
Bernard Smith.



Postmodern frame:

This is a re-examination of the conventions within artistic practice and the contraventions that arise in terms of addressing issues/concepts surrounding the production and reading of art.

Thematic topics include:

the emperors clothes: the rupture within the Modernist discourse (Dada, Nouvelle Realiste, Performance Art)

trash aesthetics ready-mades and combines as disjunctive aesthetic artefacts and visual contraventions. Examining how Dada, Pop, Art Povera and Fluxus employ the material objects of the every day as art objects

Pomo talk: Post Structuralism and critical theories that have been used in art writings.

Key art movements that will be investigated utilising this frame in terms of the case study:

Dada
Pop
Fluxus
Arte Povera
Nouvelle Realiste
Performance Art.

Key theorists and historians include:

Rosalind Krauss
Walter Benjamin
Jean Baudrillard
John Berger
Robert Hughes
Craig Owens
Terry Eggleton
Hal Foster
Jaques Lacan.


Conceptual framework:

Conceptual frameworks will be developed around the investigation of the frames, indicating a symbiotic relationship between the two content components.

Once students have knowledge of the theme, artists, movement, theories and historians, they will formulate their own conceptual frameworks that identify the interactivity of the agencies of the art world: artist(s), artwork, audience, world.

go to sleep
(the radiohead song)
ok i'm gone now.
becaues tommoro i have to write about
the aboriginal flag + symbols passing on the dreaming cave carnum brothels in herculaneam "beware of the dog" and dog used in arnolfini by jan van eyck in 1434 which has symbols like dog=faith candle=hope also frida kahlo born july6th 1907 "my paintings carry with it a strong message of pain....painting has completed my life....i believe that work is the best thing" who painted my birth in 1932 which relates to her painful miscarriages and the little deer in 1946 which juxtaimposes a deer body which symbolises her desire to be free and andy warhol 1928-87 "in the future, everone will be famous for 15 minutes" reflects his opinions on mass consumerism and fake idols such as his paintins 100 cambells soup cans and 4 marylins. "i'm a deeply superficial person" could show how he is communicating his own personality through his art but probably being sarcastic



*looks at notes...*
forgot the rosary on the wall a sign of faith and that frida kahlo was surrealist and andy was conceptual and used silkscreen

Can I just ask.......are you in yr 11 or 12....because if you're in yr 12 and you don't know what the frames are (or atleast the names of them) by now, then you need to do some serious studying or catching up!!!:)
