Starter Kit/ Intro Flashcards
- The object is partially covered and is meant to be seen as located behind those covering them.
Overlapping
Succesively smaller elements are percieved as being progressively farther away than the largest ones.
Diminution
Stacks elements with the higer ones intended to be perceived as deeper in space.
Vertical Perspective
Objects in the far distance (often in bluish gray hues) have less clarity than nearer objects. The sky becomes paler as it approaches the horizon.
Atmospheric Perpective
Also known as reverse perspective, forms widen slightly and imaginary lines called orthogonals diverge as they recede in space.
Divergent Perspective
Also known as scientific, mathematical, one-point and Renaissance perspective is a rationalization or standardizatio of intuitive perspective that was developed in 15th century Italy. It used mathematical formulas to construct images in which all elements are shaped by , or arranged along, orthogonals that converge in one or more vanishing points on a horizon line.
Linear Perspective
What are the 2-types of Art?
2-Dimensional
3-Dimensional
2 dimensial art includes what 3 things?
- Painting
- Graphic Arts
- Photography
3 Dimensional Art Include what 3 things?
- Sculpture
- Ephemeral Arts
- Architecture
These categories overlap all the time, but there still useful when thinking about and describing art.
True
Elements of Form include what 5 things?
- Line & Shape
- Color
- Texture
- Space
- Mass
What are the 2 types of lines?
- Actual Line
- Implied Line
Shapes are defined by lines called what 2 things?
- Outlines
- Contour
Shapes can be what 4 things?
- Geometric
- Biomorphic
- Open
- Closed
Outlines or contours of 3-D objects can’t also be percieved as lines.
False
Renaissance tried not to use lines why?
Because lines don’t exist.
What are 3 types of color?
- Primary
- Secondary Colors
- Teriary Colors
Complementary Colors mean what?
That the colors are directly across each other on the wheel.
Value is what?
Relative lightness and darkness of a color.
Saturation is what?
Intensity is a color’s quality of brightness or dullness.
Texture is what?
Gives the painting an almost touchable aspect.
Real Texture is what?
What are 2 types of texture?
- Real Texture
- Implied Texture
Implied Texture is what?
Composition is what 4 things?
Arrangement of portions of the work.
Implied lines and implied shapes in the work
Effect suggested by these lines & shapes
Colos Schemas used
What is a major aspect f composition?
Spacial Recession
Spacial Recession
Suggestions of a 3d world in a flat surface, or picture plane.
3D works involve what three things?
- Mass
- Space
- Volume
Space and volume are technically the same, but whether we percieve space or volume depends on what?
perception.
Solid matter that takes up space.
Mass
What contains forms or volumes (inside or surroundeds)
Space
Is enclosed or defines space
Volume
What are 4 types of arcitecture art?
- Plan
- Section
- Isometric Cutaway
- Isometric Projection
Historians try to detatch themselves from today to get a better view point.
True
Art places the work in..
context.
Intertcal method used by most art list.
- Assessment of physical properties of work
- Analysis of visual or formal structure
- Identification of subject manner
- Intergration with in cultural context
