Module 11

-For this assignment I chose to watch The Impact of Cubism because cubism is something that I've never seen before and it sounded interesting to me. I chose Surrealism and Dada for my second video because it is also something that I would like to learn more about in the future so I figured it would be ideal to watch it.

-KEY CONCEPTS
        The Impact of Cubism: Cubism art is art that is straight and has harsh corners and lines that are        very defined. The titles of the art often define the subject matter of the artwork. Most of the time the art can be taken apart and put back together again.

         Surrealism and Dada: Surrealists are ofter artists who like to believe in fantasy and dreams and most of the time stay away from real life. Dada expands what art could be combining objects together to create something better.

-The video on Cubism mostly talked about Cubist artists and each of their different artworks and why they created them. The book also talked about the same thing just a little more in depth. The book also gave a good definition of what Cubism is and how it is used.
The video on Surrealism and Dada went into depth about the artists and their artwork, more so than the book did. They also talked about the history of this compared to how it is today and talked about the differences.

-I enjoyed both of the films very much so. I enjoyed how they both went into depth about the different artists there are and their different styles of art.  I wish that the videos would go just a little bit more into depth than they did so then we wouldn't need to use the textbook as a backup reference.
