Artists who used the Hellenistic sculpture Locon
Milanote Board “Module 5: Creativity Practices I – Appropriated Motifs
- I illustrate works by four artists who used the Hellenistic sculpture Laocoön (pronounced, lay-ah-koh-on) as the basis for a protagonist in paintings. Who are these artists? (.5 point; 15 minutes – this question requires listing information from the Milanote board.)
Two Questions Related to Sandro Botticelli, Birth of Venus, 1485 (Florence, Uffizi) - What two antique sources did Botticelli use for major motifs in his painting Birth of Venus? (.5 point; 15 minutes – this question requires listing information from the Milanote board.)
- How did Botticelli’s usage of this source for the main figure give new life to it? (2 points; 45 minutes – this question requires that you demonstrate understanding of concepts related to a practical example from text on the Milanote board.)
Milanote Board “Module 5: Form and Content I – Agreement”
- What is the name of the perceptual effect that is evident in the pictorial experiment known as duck-rabbit? (Please name the effect and very briefly describe it.) (1 point; 20 minutes – this question requires identifying nomenclature and demonstrating that you understand a concept.)
An art historian and theorist named Michael Podro wrote the following: “”If we take up the thought of earlier literatures of art … the answer is that there must be some structure within the painting such that we perceive one aspect given meaning by another, one feature transformed by its relation to another and that these are relations we can find and re-find.” - In stating this, does Podro agree or disagree that the perceptual effect evident in duck-rabbit applies to the way we perceive works of art? Please explain (very briefly – one or possibly two sentences should be enough.) (1 point; 20 minutes – this question requires that you synthesize and apply knowledge from question 4 and the Milanote board.)
- Does Podro agree or disagree with Ernst Gombrich about this? Please explain (very briefly – one sentence would probably suffice). (1 point; 20 minutes – this question builds on question 5 and requires that you demonstrate knowledge acquired from reading the Milanote board.)
Let’s think about form (by form here I mean the arrangement of design elements such as color, line, texture, shape, etc.), content (by which here I mean the represented subject and its constituent pictorial elements), and materials(what the artwork is actually made of – which is to say, what is actually physically present). - Please choose one artwork from the board and briefly and precisely describe how Michael Podro’s statement quoted above applies to it. (2 points; 45 minutes – this question requires that you apply your understanding of the concepts explored in questions 4-6 by analyzing an artwork.)
Sample Solution
ter on, one of the most known methods will be discussed in a detailed way. The facial recognition methods that can be used, all have a different approach. Some are more frequently used for facial recognition algorithms than others. The use of a method also depends on the needed applications. For instance, surveillance applications may best be served by capturing face images by means of a video camera while image database investigations may require static intensity images taken by a standard camera. Some other applications, such as access to top security domains, may even necessitate the forgoing of the nonintrusive quality of face recognition by requiring the user to stand in front of a 3D scanner or an infrared sensor[15]. Consequently, there can be concluded that there can be made a division of three groups of face recognition techniques, depending on the wanted type of data results, i.e. methods that compare images, methods that look at data from video cameras and methods that deal with other sensory data, like 3D pictures or infrared imagery. All of them can be used in different ways, to prevent crime from happening or recurring. ii. How do these technologies work? As listed above, there exists a long list of methods and algorithms that can be used for facial recognition. Four of them are used frequently and are most known in the literature, i.e. Eigenface Method, Correlation Method, Fisherface Method and the Linear Subspaces Method. But how do these facial recognition work? Because of word limitations, only one of those four facial recognition techniques, i.e The Eigenface Method, will be discussed. Hopefully this will give an general idea of how facial recognition works and can be used. One of the major difficulties of facial recognition, is that you have to cope with the fact that a person’s appearance may change, such that the two images that are being compared differentiate too much from each other. Also environmental changes in pictures, like lightning, have to be taken into account, in order to have successful facial recognition. Thus from a picture of a face, as well as from a live face, some yet more abstract visual representation must be established which can mediate recognition despite the fact that in real life the same face will hardl>
