week 11

This week in Art 100 we learned about 4 types of literacy, text literacy, visual literacy, network literacy, and educational literacy, which Glenn made up. He also mentioned about how the government killed wiki peaks and how the recording industry killed Napster both out of fear. We also watched some clips from The Reader which was pretty interesting. We also discussed about having cellphones and texting. It is so weird how it hasn't been that long since cell phones were invented but this technology sometimes can be distracting. It sometimes distracts us while studying and doing hw. This would be related to educational liberate.


Two artists that I really enjoy looking at their art is Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. They both are canvas, pop art from the 1960's, and they both are colorful. Andy Warhol drew a picture of Marilyn Monroe who is a glamorous film star who is my favorite and the picture he drew is called "Gold Marilyn Monroe".
Roy Lichtenstein based his imagery on comic book which I like because it is very unique. His painting are large, meticulously rendered frames from comic stripes. his painting that I fell for is called "Masterpiece".
