Comparing 3 paintings & painting/music
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay that discusses three paintings and Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. “The Abduction of the Sabine Women” by Nicolas Poussin (1634), “The Death of General Wolfe” by Benjamin West (1770), and “The Raft of the Medusa” by Theodore Gericault” (1818) are each representative of a specific period in art history. Comparing the three works illustrates the way in which the Romantic era reconnected with the emotionality and vibrancy of the Baroque. However, it should be noted that Neoclassical works were not without emotion, as Beethoven’s striking Fifth Symphony exemplifies, rather it indicates that comparison between the periods illustrates that in the Neoclassical era, emotion was controlled within the confines of rationality. A bibliography is not offered.

Comparing and Contrasting the Concepts Used in Golf Course Designs
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 4 page paper comparing and contrasting the concepts used in golf course designs. Examples include Pebble Beach and Augusta National. The designs of golf courses have changed a great deal over the last century and a half. Original golf course designs incorporated a great deal of the natural elements present in the landscape because there were very few options available in regards to moving earth. These courses proved to be very challenging and many withstood the test of time with relatively few changes over the years, such as Pebble Beach. During the 1920s and 1930s, the “Golden Age” of golf course design occurred and such classics as Augusta National were built to accommodate the ever increasing popularity of the game. While still maintaining a natural landscape especially in regards to its fruitland past, Augusta in contrast to other courses, has undergone a great many design changes over the course of time. Most changes were in response to the increasing number of spectators which attend the Masters’ tournament held there each year while other changes were meant to keep the course challenging.

Comparing Artists Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 6 page paper comparing and contrasting the works and politics of the artists Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol. Artists Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol lived and worked basically at the same time from the 1920s to the 1980s. Beuys, who grew up fairly conservatively, served in the war and held an academic position, expressed a great deal of warmth and hope in his art works which was also reflected in his political and philosophical outlook on life. He believed that all humans were students of life and it was their obligation to use their creativity throughout their disciplines to integrate the ideals of all cultures. Throughout his lifetime he was the founder of several activist groups designed to allow for a more open-minded society. His convictions to freedom of education were often at his own expense as he sacrificed a great deal for his activism. Warhol was known as one of the most influential commercial and pop culture artists of his time. His outlook on life and the human race was somewhat more grim than Beuys’ however as he believed that modern culture should and does act like a machine. He stressed that he was superficial along with the rest of society and used his celebrity to further his career mostly in the art, film, music and television industries. He did however use some of his exhibitions to display some of what he considered to be disasters of the twentieth century but most of his activism was through his art and not through outward causes like Beuys.

Comparing The Artistic Modernism Of Pre-World War I Europe To European Modernism In The 1920s
[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length. The surrealist DaDa movement of post-World War I was the rebellious answer to the social and political nature of battle, successfully crushing the avant-garde period of pre-World War I, a conflict that effectively halted the heady artistic experimentation of prewar Western Europe. Avant-gardist artistry was responsible for the growth of myriad elements of contemporary art, including but not limited to cinema, advertising and newspaper/book publishing. Sadly, as the war passed, so too did many of the artistic personalities of the avant-garde period, as well. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Comparing Three Minimalist Artists
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page paper highlighting the work of Marcel Duchamp, Ulrich Ruckriem and Donald Judd. Of these three artists, it would appear that only Ruckriem is in danger of taking too seriously both his work and minimalist art in general. Duchamp made fun of the entire area of modern art and encouraged others to do the same; Judd even disdained hearing his work called sculpture. They each presented very different styles, both in their approaches and their final work, as evidenced by Ruckriem's concerns of his work being too much for a building to support weighed against the report of Judd's volume of work and wide range of sizes. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
