butter sculptures

Artworks made from butter, historically linked to special occasions. The earliest recording of butter sculptures was from Pope (Not so) Pius V's cook Bartolomeo Scappi in 1536, in which he made a Hercules fighting a Lion. The type of butter sculptures we now use in the 21st century was popularized by Caroline Shaw Brooks, in the 19th century. She was an artist who lived on a farm back in old Penn, and made various butter sculptures.

The Ichthyosaur and the Plesiosaur (Lias Period)

This is the first painting by Édouard Riou; engraved by Laurent Hotelin and Alexandre Hurely Édouard Riou, was the first which used the [] and the [], which batted them with each other as enemies. Artists and scientists portrayed ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs as dire enemies. Warring above the waves, the two reptiles became the single most prevalent motif in 19th-century paleoart, in part because they provided ideal allegorical vessels for the naval conflicts of the age.

Caroline Shaw Brooks

This artist was one pioneers of the butter art form; she was a lonely rural artist from Ohio who married a farmer way back in the 1860s, of course, through this marriage she thought creatively about what to make art from the farm's products and tools, and voila her butter art was created. The first instance of her sculptures was in 1873 in which she created a sculpture of the blind princess from King René's Daughter Iolanthe, Dreaming Iolanthe as it was known was displayed at the Cincinnati Art Gallery in 1874 for two weeks to the amusement of thousands, in 1876 she made a bass-relief of Iolanthe for the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, which would be shipped to France in 1878 for the Third Paris World's fair.

[]'s Missa

This is an art piece by [] in which 100 army boots lovingly bought from your favourite army surplus store, were arranged in a grid of 700x700cm and dangled by strings in a silent, void empty room with nothing inside but the hanging boots of an army which - creates obedience in the citizens of the nation, an army which - is as faceless as they portraited the enemy, an army that - is all-powerful, an army that relies on fear or loyalty? The gist of it is that it talks about the struggle and how an army oppresses its people without a face.

Dominique Blain

An artist who constructed the work Missa, a grid of 100 pairs of army boots meant to relate to the austerity of the war and the faceless soldiers it cost. This artist is well known for their abstract works of art with deep meanings..

Judith and Holofernes (1554)

An oil painting by Giorgio Vasari in [] that depicts Judith with enhanced physical prowess about to behead Holofernes. This is considered an abandonment of realism in favour of portraying ideals.

Judith Slaying Holofernes

This version of the "Judith vs Holofernes" trope was created by one of the first great female European artists, Artemisia Gentileschi in 1612-1613. This one has true feminine rage as Gentileschi wanted to put her rage against society in this painting with the more "livid" Judith being strongly against her oppressor. This one is most inspired by the works of Vassari and has a more "alive" feel to it.

New cards

Judith and Holofernes (1880)

A painting by Pedro Americo in 1880 depicts Judith giving thanks to God after slaying Holofernes, whose head lays on the ground. This version has a much more nationalistic and "look i've saved our people, lets partayy!!!!" (in goes HAVA NAGILA) feel to it, as Americo was a very nationalistic and Brazilian painter.

Judith and Holofernes (2012)

A painting by Kehinde Wiley in 2012, depicting Judith as a black woman holding the head of a white woman on Wiley's typical floral background. It is Wiley's modern take on "Judith and the Head of Holofernes" by Giovanni Baglione in 1608. It is the first in Wiley's series "An Economy of Grace", in which he used street casting to find female subjects for each of the paintings in this series. The painting calls attention to the lack of representation of people of colour in art.

Napoleon Crossing the Alps (1802-1805)

A series of five oil on canvas equestrian portraits of Napoleon Bonaparte painted by the French artist Jacques-Louis David between [] and []. It was the one where Napoleon didn't want to be the subject, (because he believed that "Nobody knows if the portraits of the great men resemble them, it is enough that their genius lives there.") Thus David used his son as the subject instead of Napoleon. This is the first type of Napoleon painting and HEAVILY screwed up the history as David wanted Napoleon to be as majestic as a god in the Greek style.

Washington Crossing the Delaware (1851)

Famously painted by Emanuel Leutze and was part of America's founding myth. Is inaccurate. Because the subject [], was situated in a position in which he would probably fall and trip and die into the ice. Plus, the time the painting is set in is the afternoon, while the event happened in the middle of the night. But, something which the painting was important in is that it depicted a black person in a voice for Leutze's liberal stance which made him create this painting. The painting's original version was destroyed in bombing of Berlin LOL.

A painting in 1975 by Robert Colescott depicting a fictional crew of a famous black agriculturist. It is made to be much less realistic and lacks depth techniques.

kintsugi

It translates to in English as "Golden Joinery", it is a Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. There are two styles of this artform, the crack and the joint call style, one tries to only repair the crack and create beautiful cracks of gold, and the latter uses fragments from a larger object to repair the smaller one. The materials used in the process are urushi, wheat flour, and a furo (bath). It takes an approximate time of about 2 weeks for this to mend and repair. The significance is also seen in music albums and lyrics, as well as a Pokemon (Sinistcha) based on the technique.

Mono-Ha

A Japanese art group that is known for juxtaposing natural and industrial materials. It translates to "the School of Things".

Phase—Mother Earth

A piece by Nobuo Sekine in 1968 is cited as the trigger for the formation of the Mono-ha movement in Kobe. It depicts a cylindrical 2.7-metre deep 2.2-metre in diameter hole dug into the ground and a nearby concrete powder and dirt structure of the same shape and size. It was created with the intention linked to the Oriental philosophy that the amount of Mother Earth does not change even if it is uneven. It was planned as an experiment of thought, in which an "inverted earth" or anti-earth would form. This was recreated in 2008, and now without shovels but actual cranes and such to remember the 40th anniversary of such an occasion. (funny thing this would been created during toc of 2008, as it was created on November 1-9th!)
