Kinsella, Eileen. “Indianapolis's Biggest Art Museum Is Replacing Its Contemporary Galleries With an Immersive Van Gogh-Themed Light Show.” artnet News, November 2, 2020. https://news.artnet.com/art-world/ima-newfields-van-gogh-1919299?utm_content=bufferb5eb0&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=news&fbclid=IwAR1ShpwMKkuEjnOFNkeQ7-cra9CgyQz0CZjVUODPucj-rw2D6R5-mtnE-BM


                    Eileen Kinsella is the author of this article. She is the Senior Market Editor at Artnet. Her educational background is a Bachelor of Arts in English from Marist College. Kinsella has also been a writer for other journals such as Wall Street Journal and Artnews magazine. In this article, her writing style is analytical. She is describing an art exhibit and discussing that the museum is potentially using an idea from a new Netflix series called Emily in Paris. "The initiative is billed as “the largest exhibition experience in Newfields’s 137-year history” and promises to “transform two-dimensional paintings into a three-dimensional world that guests can explore through all their senses.” It is set to debut next summer." (Kinsella 1). The sources of images and information are from the museum itself, IMA Newsfields, for the most part. She got direct quotes from Indianapolis Museum of Art's director and CEO Charles Venable. I think that this article is reliable because it gives evidence from both sources. For example it shows a photo of the scene in Emily in Paris and then it shows photos of the museums' ads for this new exhibit. It also goes more in depth about the exhibits than it does about potentially using the movies idea.

    I really enjoyed the fact that you provided background information on the artist and what they bring to the table. Is there anything in her analytical art work that is specific to her. The sources of information that were presented were also very well thought out and provided great information!

    Grace,
    You provided excellent context for the article, such as sharing details about the artist. I do recommend expanding your analysis a little more towards the bottom. Great post!

      I realize I did not meet the work count so here is a little more detail about what I mean:

      Grace,
      You provided excellent context for the article, such as sharing details about the artist. I do recommend expanding your analysis a little more towards the bottom. Explain exactly what makes the source reliable. How does the article discuss the artwork? How does it go more in depth? Great post!

                                            Baseball at Night by Morris Kantor 1934 (94 cm x 120 cm)                         Baseball at Night  was painted in 1934 using oil paint on linen. It was painted by Morris Kantor. This painting depicts a baseball game taking place at night. There are stadium lights shining down on the field and the crowd. The crowd is on the outer edges of the painting. They go from being in the foreground to being the background. The main subject is the players on the baseball field. The players and referees are in the midst of a play. It appears that the pitcher is just winding up a throw and the batter and the other players are anticipating the ball. In the background you can also see the building that the announ...

Module 6: Art Analysis 'Portrait of Mnonja'

Image
  Mickalene Thomas, Portrait of Mnonja, 2010, rhinestones, acrylic, and enamel on wood panel               This painting depicts a women sitting casually on a couch in the foreground. She has her feet up on the side of the couch and she seems comfortably sitting. She is wearing a necklace, earrings, and very vibrant shoes and lipstick. There is a lot of textures going on in the background and all of them are different making it seem busy but it still works some how. The patterns on the couch are contrasting, the couch itself looks like its 3 different patterns and then the pillows or blankets on there are also different. There is also a painting or sculpture of a cat in the foreground. It appears to have rhinestones on parts of it. The shoes also appear to have rhinestones for their coloring. The skirt or pants she is wearing have the appearance of being suede. I'm not sure how the artist accomplished this because I do not think I have ever s...
