The Fishermen (sculpture)

Prompt: Focus on The Fishermen (sculpture) and explain the Description.

The sculpture depicts a fisherman and his grandson napping, as well as a dog, a cat, a pelican, and a bucket of fish. Jim Demetro has said about the work's inspiration: I was walking along the ocean and this fisherman caught a fish and he reeled it in and he took his fish off the hook and he put it in his bucket and this big pelican swooped down and grabbed the fish out of the bucket and jumped in the ocean with the fish and he tossed it up into the air to get in his beak, but it went in sideways like this, so he couldn't swallow it, so he tried and tried and tried and couldn't swallow it. So finally he came ashore and the fisherman grabbed him by the back of the neck and another one opened up his beak and took his fish out and put it back in the bucket and shooed the pelican off. That's a true story, I actually saw it happen.An inscription reads, "This statue honors all fishermen and their important contributions to the history and traditions of Puerto Vallarta. This piece was supported by the generous contributions of citizens, the City Council, Mr. Arturo Dávalos Peña, Municipal President, Dr. Ramón González Lomelí, Director of Tourism Puerto Vallarta and Hotel Playa Los Arcos. Sculptors Jim Demetro and Christina Demetro. May 31, 2018".

Don Juan Mateos

Prompt: Focus on Don Juan Mateos and explain the Background.

This work is widely attributed to Diego Velázquez and has been dated to 1632 or 1633. The portrait is referenced in 1685 among the assets of Cesare Ignazio of Modena as "ritratto di Monsu Velasco [...] quale figura que ha le mani solo abbozzate" or "portrait of Signor Velasco ... hands but roughly sketched". Sold as the work of Rubens in 1746 to Augustus III of Poland, it passed from his collection into the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, where for some time it was considered the work of Titian.The portrait, cut below the waist, wears black with golden highlights and a white collar. The hands, only outlined, rest the right on the hilt of a pistol the left on the sword. The figure is cut out on a reddish-gray background, brighter in front of the figure. The head, intensely illuminated and slightly turned, looks at the viewer with a penetrating gaze. Signs of ageing include the wrinkles on his nose and his neck.The model is believed to be Juan Mateos, Philip IV's horseman and main crossbowman. Art historian Carl Justi compared the Velázquez portrait with the small portrait of the author and hunter engraved by Pedro Perete that appears on the front of his work, Origen y dignidad de la caza (Origin and Dignity of Hunting). Jonathan Brown suggests that the portrait could have been acquired on the death of Mateos by Ippolito Camillo Guidi, ambassador of the Duke of Modena in Madrid from 1641 to 1643, commissioned by the Duke, after a visit to the Madrid court, to purchase works of art to hedge against the constant devaluation of the billon currency used in his remuneration. The inventory of the goods left at his death by Mateos included, in fact, together with a small number of religious paintings, two portraits, one his and another of his wife, María Marquart, now deceased, but they were cited as full-length portraits and were jointly valued at just 100 reales, with no indication of the painter's name.

Portrait of Elizabeth Kerr

Prompt: Focus on Portrait of Elizabeth Kerr and explain the abstract.

It is now in the Museo Soumaya in Mexico City.It shows Elizabeth Kerr (née Fortescue), daughter of Chichester Fortescue (1718–1757), High Sheriff of County Down in what is now Northern Ireland. Reynolds also painted her at least twice between her marriage in 1762 and her husband's succession to the marquisate in 1775 – these half-lengths are on show at Blickling Hall and Fyvie Castle. John Spilsbury engraved the c.1769 work in 1770, though he altered a few details of the dress.The c. 1769 work was inherited by William and Elizabeth's seventh child and second son Lord Charles Beauchamp Kerr (1775–1816), who passed it to his own son Captain Beauchamp Kerr. Sometime before 1899 it came into the hands of one E. Beckett, who sold it to Agnew's that year. Agnew's sold it on four days later to George J. Gould, who bequeathed it to a private collector in Washington, D.C. That private collector then sold it at auction at Sotheby's New York on 9 June 2011, where it was bought by its present owner for $62,500 (then equivalent to £38,514).

Portrait of Elizabeth Kerr

Prompt: Focus on Portrait of Elizabeth Kerr and explain the Description.

The subject is shown seated three-quarter-length, her hands resting in her lap and her right forearm resting on a table. She wears a dress influenced by the ancient Greek chiton and an overmantle of blueish silk, edged with ermine to reflect her noble status. Influenced by ancient Roman busts, her high and heavily-ornamented hairstyle was very fashionable for the time, with a single braid running over her right breast. Reynolds contrasts her white skin with a darker background Some art historians argue that the work complies with the "four principles of painting" outlined by Reynolds in his Discourses on Art, namely invention, colour, drapery and expression.

Music (Matisse)

Prompt: Focus on Music (Matisse) and explain the abstract.

Music (La Musique) is a wall-size painting made by Henri Matisse in 1910. The painting was commissioned by Sergei Shchukin, who hung it with Matisse's 1910 Dance on the staircase of his Moscow mansion. Matisse made the painting without any preparatory sketches, and thus the painting bears many traces of modifications. One can virtually trace the steps Matisse took to find the intended effect. As in Dance, the aim was to show man's attainment of a state of completeness by immersion in creativity. The painting is now in the collection of the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Walkways Through the Wall

Prompt: Focus on Walkways Through the Wall and explain the Historical information.

Walkways Through the Wall is an example of Acconci's focus on architecture and landscape design. According to Wisconsin policy, 1% of the Midwest Airlines Center had to be spent on art. Instead of creating a piece of sculpture for the outside of the building, Acconci integrated art into the building's design. Mark A. Wallace compares the building's concrete floor to taffy that slips in and out of the building, going through windows, sidewalks and the building's facade."From the outside, Acconci extends the natural concrete as pathways through the wall and into the building, bisecting the terra-cotta concourse. Each path then heads in a different direction and ends with a unique purpose. In two cases, the path forms a bench at the street level. In another it cascades downward before ending as a sitting area on the level below. In still another, it leads to a stairway connecting the two levels. Light boxes mark the turns in the walkways where the concrete material ceases to exist, illuminating both the interior and exterior concourses." Special care had to be taken in the construction. For example, the benches had to be cast 6 inches thick, so as to be able to support their own weight and that of pedestrians.The resulting space is playful, yet Acconci also envisioned serious objectives. The artist aimed to re-people the public space, and encourage them to think about how these spaces are shaped. He achieved this by creating a continuous plaza. "Acconci and his colleagues designed their "interactive art installation" with the hope that visitors to the Midwest Airlines Center will see materials defying physical properties and reflect on their own potential. 'I hope they would laugh and think that something is doing what it wasn't supposed to do,' explains Acconci, 'So if the material does what it is not supposed to do, maybe I, a person, can do what I am not supposed to do."

Edge of the Trees

Prompt: Focus on Edge of the Trees and explain the Philosophy and meaning.

The intention of the artwork is to interpret and make reference to the past: the indigenous, the displaced, and the land. The name of the sculpture originated in an essay by historian Rhys Maengwyn Jones: "…the "discoverers" struggling through the surf were met on the beaches by other people looking at them from the edge of the trees. Thus the same landscape perceived by the newcomers as alien, hostile, or having no coherent form, was to the indigenous people their home, a familiar place, the inspiration of dreams." Edge of the Trees symbolises the interaction between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people at this site, which was a significant site of first contact. The artists express such idea as they delivered multiple layers of memories of the site through the language of materials, naming, and mapping and the memories include: the botanical memory, the Eora memory, and the Colonial memory.The sculpture is a site-specific art that made direct reference to the Museum of Sydney. The concept of the museum is the Historic Houses Trust and the senior curator, Peter Emmett. Laurence was one of the artists who was invited to submit a proposal for the limited competition for the museum. The competition brief invited the artists to "engage with the architecture in dialogue, counterpoint, even tension". Laurence invited Aboriginal artist Fiona Foley to collaborate with her to directly respond to the culturally charged symbolism of the site. Foley was able to bring in the authentic cultural input and authority to incorporate materials that a non-Aboriginal artist could not have.

Edge of the Trees

Prompt: Explain the Philosophy and meaning of this artwork, Edge of the Trees.

The intention of the artwork is to interpret and make reference to the past: the indigenous, the displaced, and the land. The name of the sculpture originated in an essay by historian Rhys Maengwyn Jones: "…the "discoverers" struggling through the surf were met on the beaches by other people looking at them from the edge of the trees. Thus the same landscape perceived by the newcomers as alien, hostile, or having no coherent form, was to the indigenous people their home, a familiar place, the inspiration of dreams." Edge of the Trees symbolises the interaction between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people at this site, which was a significant site of first contact.

Edge of the Trees

Prompt: Focus on Edge of the Trees and explain the Material naming and mapping.

Edge of the Trees is a "forest" of 29 massive pillars made of wood, steel and sandstone clustering at the museum forecourt near the entrance. Wooden pillars points to the grove of trees that once occupied the site. The pillars were Ironbark and Tallow wood trees which were collected from around Sydney. The sandstone material is to suggest Sydney's historical building material and the substance on which Sydney is built. Steel is used to link to the steel and glass features of the museum architecture, extending the building and reflecting upon the industrial developments since the colonial period.Organic materials such as human hair, shell, bone, feathers, ash and honey, are embedded in windows within the wood pillars, symbolising and memorialising the lives that lived around the site. Natural and cultural histories are evoked by the names of botanical species carved or burnt into wooden columns in both Latin and Aboriginal languages, along with the signatures of First Fleeters.Words are engraved onto the pillars such as the species from pollen readings of the Governor's garden and the names of the first fleeters who arrived in Sydney in 1788.  Place names are also engraved on the sandstone pillars in Latin and Aboriginal languages.The 29 vertical poles correspond to the 29 Aboriginal clans from around Sydney. As the work is designed not to be viewed from a distance but experienced up close as part of the sensual and spatial encounter, the audience are invited to touch and run their fingers along the engraved names and to feel the textures of the different materials. Walking between the pillars you hear a soundscape of Koori voices reciting the names of places in the Sydney region that have today been swallowed up by the metropolis. This is also a way to celebrate the moment in time.

The Crucifixion (Margkazinis)

Prompt: Focus on The Crucifixion (Margkazinis) and explain the abstract.

The Crucifixion is a painting created by Georgio Markazini.  Markazini was a Greek painter from the island of Crete.  He migrated to Venice.  He was active during the middle part of the 17th century.  Two of the painter's works survived.  The crucifixion was a very popular subject among Cretan painters.  Andreas Pavias, Emmanuel Lambardos, and Theophanes the Cretan created a similar style crucifixion.  The Cretan painters frequently influenced each other.  Jan Sadeler I was a Renaissance Flemish engraver who migrated to Venice with his son and nephew.  He was active during the second half of the 16th century.  His engravings of the crucifixion series influenced Markazini's Work.  Around this same period, the engravings were circulating through the Venetian Greek community.  Theodore Poulakis and Konstantinos Tzanes both used the engravings as inspiration.  They were Georgio Markazini's contemporaries active during the same period.        Greek and Italian Painters frequently added many figures to the Crucifixion scene.  For instance, Andreas Pavias's Crucifixion features the dice player scene and the resurrection of the Christian saints.  Both stories are part of Matthew's gospel.  Other painters such as Ioannis Moskos featured the same pictorial representation of the gospel in his Crucifixion namely the dice players.  The crucifixion paintings offer a rich array of symbols and meanings.  The Crucifixion by Markazini is part of the collection of the Hellenic Institute in Venice, Italy.
