Module 15:Video Review

Videos Viewed: Greenburg on Art Criticism:An Interview by T.J. Clark & Jackson Pollack:Michael Fried and T.J. Clark in Conversation.

1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Greenburg discusses perception as being something that everyone has to get used to not using when they arelooking at art. He said to place limits on nothing is what we need to do and to keep everthing relevant is the key to being a good critic of art.
Freid and Clark had two different perspectives on modern art. Fried thought that it was more important to think about art as a individuality persective. On the other hand Clark looked at the art as more of a historical sense. All  three artists did express energy being one of the key aspects of art that needs to representative. Energy is something that they can see and feel while looking at the art.
2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Criticism project? If yes, explain how. If no, explain why not.
 I believe that these videos gave good reference on what to start thinking about when I view other individuals art creation projects.
3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of art criticism?
My opinion of these films are that one they are informative to the viewer however, I would of liked to hear more about how they got to where they could be critics. I guess the explainations of the art was unclear to me. They have way more experience that me in viewing the art, I would have liked to hear how they came to the information to begin with.
