Using the elements of art and principles of design in your

vocabulary, compare and contrast the two movements,

discussing if one influenced the other, traits of each one,

most and why?

Fauvism has harsh colors and

painting with figures that are

flattened. This means that people

or animals or other figures don't

look realistic because they don't

look like they are 3D. "Fauv"

means "wild beast" in French, and

most of the Fauvists were French

and German painters. The roaring

twenties are evident in some of the

art and the realities of hard work

after looing lots of money is

evident in other pieces.

Most influential of all the Dadaists is Frenchman Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) He exhibited his first “ready made” sculptures –mass produced found objects; he sometimes altered them by combining with them other objectsHe claimed these objects were created free from any consideration of either good or bad tasteHis most outrageous ready-made is Fountain; a porcelain urinal presented on its back signed “R Mutt” and datedThe artist’s signature is a witty pseudonym derived from the Mott plumbing company’s name and short for “Mutt” and “Jeff” comic stripThis was not selected for its aesthetic quality- questions what is artVery aggressive avant-garde approach to art

In 1919, Duchamp made a parody of the Mona Lisa by adorning a

cheap reproduction of the painting with a mustache and goatee. To

this he added the inscription L.H.O.O.Q., a phonetic game which,

when read out loud in French quickly sounds like "Elle a chaud au

cul". This can be translated as "She has a hot a--",

Mexican mother and German father, Frida Kahlo (1907-1954),

used the details of her life as powerful symbols for pain of human

existence

She is grouped with Surrealists due to the psychic and autobiographical

issues she dealt with in her art

She distanced herself from the group, she began painting as a young

student, after an accident that left her a great deal of pain

Her life became a heroic and tumultuous battle with illness and stormy

personal relationships

Pollock was introduced to the use of liquid paint in 1936 at an experimental workshop in New York City by the Mexican muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros. He later used paint pouring as one of several techniques on canvases of the early 1940s, such as Male and Female and Composition with Pouring I. After his move to Springs, he began painting with his canvases laid out on the studio floor, and he developed what was later called his "drip" technique.He started using synthetic resin-based paints called alkyd enamels, which, at that time, was a novel medium. Pollock described this use of household paints, instead of artist’s paints, as "a natural growth out of a need".[16] He used hardened brushes, sticks, and even basting syringes as paint applicators. Pollock's technique of pouring and dripping paint is thought to be one of the origins of the term action painting. With this technique, Pollock was able to achieve a more immediate means of creating art, the paint now literally flowing from his chosen tool onto the canvas. By defying the convention of painting on an upright surface, he added a new dimension by being able to view and apply paint to his canvases from all directions.
