wk 9 videos

Lowdown on Lowbrow- West Coast Pop Art

This video talked about the style of lowbrow. It talked about the simularities and differences with lowbrow and pop art. It is very similar to pop art. It was highly influenced by car culture, folk arts and car culture.

Displaying Modern Art- The Tate Approach

This video gave the history of the Tate museum. It showed how art is arranged throughout the museum. This video shows how the museum creator divides the museum into groups separated by themes. The art works are grouped accordingly. This relates to our project but on a much larger scale.

Bones of Contention: Native American Archaeology

This video was about the Indian burial grounds. It talked about how important it was and how people fought to keep bones from being dug up. This video always talked about a study that compared brain size to the intelligence in that size. That was interesting.

George Eastman House: Picture Perfect

This talks about the history of George Eastman. It tells about his inventions of cameras. It states his numerous photograph collection that he possessed as well as his cameras found in the house. This house is found in nearby Rochester.

2.I think the video about Displaying Modern Art- Tate Approach was the only video that kind of related to our project. This relates because this is basically what we are doing on a much smaller scale and simulated through a power point.

3.The videos don't really add much to my understanding. Some of them has nothing to do with anything we are doing I feel. Just the video I mentioned above related I think.
