Week Fifteen - Video Review Blog

1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.

Greenberg on Art Criticism: An Interview by T. J. Clark: This video discusses the types of art criticism by identifying and analyzing different artist’s pieces of work. Through this, you are able to distinguish the artist’s criticisms through their work. I enjoyed this video because it allowed me to better understand art criticism and how it is identified.  

Jackson Pollock: Michael Fried and T. J. Clark in Conversation: This film discusses Jackson Pollock’s work and the effect of such work. Many questions have been raised, because of Jackson Pollock’s artistic style. The two people in the video go through the process of art criticism in analyzing Jackson Pollock’s art. I found this video to interesting, because it relates well to the project we just completed and expands on the first film.

2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Criticism project? If yes, explain how. If no, explain why not.

Yes, the videos relate to the creation of your Art Criticism project. The videos provide an explanation of various types of art criticism. This is done by analyzing artwork and discussing other artist’s art criticisms.

3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of art criticism?

I enjoyed the films, because they provided a different perspective beyond the text and different details about both subjects that I found interesting. I was especially interested in how these videos related to my project and the key concepts about art criticism.
