ART 111 Week 4

Having height, width, and depth form=three dimensional

form, volume, mass, and texture

two-dimensional

an object that can be defined in three dimensions

largest carving in the world from a single stone. artist sculpted the living rock. symbol of the power to change our surroundings

Regular forms, readily expressible in words or numbers

three-dimensional form made up of unpredictable, irregular planes that suggest the natural world. regular, unpredictable, and derived from living things derived from living things irregular and unpredictable used for expressive effect

the space filled or enclosed by a three-dimensional figure or object

when artist enclose a space with materials that are not completely solid, they create an open volume.

a volume that has, or gives the illusion of having weight density, and bulk

the surface quality of a work

contradicts our previous tactile experiences

the basic vocabulary of art-line, shape, form, volume, mass, texture, value (lightness/darkness), space, color, and motion and time.

A two-dimensional are, the boundaries of which are defined by lines or suggested by changes in color or value

a computer-generated illusion that emulates an object in three dimensions; t can be modified to show visual movement

an object that can be defined in three dimensions (height, width, and depth)

the size of an object or artwork relative to another object or artwork, or to a system of measurement

the space filled or enclosed by a three-dimensional figure or object

a volume that has, or gives the illusion of having, weight, density, and bulk

the distance between identifiable points or planes

the surface quality of a work, for example fine/coarse, detailed/lacking in detail

three-dimensional form composed of predictable and mathematically derived planes and curves

a flat, two-dimensional surface on which an artist can create a drawing or painting. Planes can also be implied in a composition by areas that face toward, parallel to, or away from a light source.

art imagery that departs from recognizable images from the natural world

the optical effect caused when reflected white light of the spectrum is divided into a separate wavelength

a raised form on a largely flat background. For example, the design on a coin is "in relief"

a freestanding scultped work that can be viewed from all sides

any side of a building, usually the front or entrance

the part of a work depicted as the nearest to the viewer

a carved panel where the figures project with a great deal of depth from the background

a sculpture carve with very little depth: the carved subjects rise only slightly above the surface of the work.

upright stone slab decorated with inscriptions or pictorial relief carvings

the overall design or organization of a work

any sculpture that stands separate from walls or other surfaces so that it can be viewed from a 360-degree radius

the center of interest or activity in a work of art, often drawing the viewer's attention to the most important element

an imaginary line showing the center of a shape, volume, or composition

an unoccupied or empty space that is created after positive shapes are positioned in a work of art

a drastic difference between such elements as color or value (lightness/darkness) when they are presented together

0.an artistic movement in the 1920s and later; its works were inspired by dreams and the subconscious0

shapes are flat and do not have depth, mass, or volume, although they can have the illusion of actual depth. form occupies three-dimensional space and exists in a real and solid way.

usually make building that are proportional to our size but sometimes they build in to a larger scale to leave us in awe. artists and designers create forms with full knowledge that they can evoke our memories of other three-dimensional object in the world and allow us to experience our own world in a richer way.

they are both examples of geometric forms

wanted to convey the idea of a "creature who emerges from his dark cave to share goodness and light." extreme edges upward as if this were a growing, living object, a form that is lively and organic. we are free to revel in the life, energy, and power of the superhero through an expressive form, rather than a carefully depicted, lifelike representation.

a relief is a work in which forms project from flat surface. It is designed to be viewed from one side only, A form in the round can be seen from all sides.

the figures behind those in the foreground are also carved in relief, but not quite so deeply.

volume is the amount of space occupied by an object. solid objects have volume; so do objects that enclose an empty space. Mass, by contrast, suggests that something is solid and occupies space.

they carefully use suspended pieces of metal to make an open volume that, when looked at as a whole, creates the image of a large human head.

filled the interior of a house with tons of concrete before demolishing the exterior. empty volume that was once filled with happy and sad moments of ordinary domestic life was thus turned into a commemoration of its former self.

his steadfast compassion is suggested by the four-square, mass of marisol's work, while his upright correctness is reflected in its vertical lines the stout form communicates stability and determination

used texture to contradict the conscious logical experiences of viewers the form is recognizable, but the associated experience is not.
