"Light Writing" or "Writing with Light"
What is the Greek translation of Photography?
|
Illusion of Motion
The initial motion picture devices, like the one created by Thomas Edison, the Kinetoscope, created what type of motion?
|
Kinetic Sculpture
What is sculpture that moves?
|
FALSE
Some artist only use materials from the land, some use natural and man-made objects, and some just used the site placing related man-made objects in the environment.
TRUE/FALSE: To be considered land art, an artist can only use materials directly from the specific site.
|
Dry Masonary
What is stone construction without the use of mortar?
|
FALSE -
Daguerrotypes use a light sensitive copper ground Negatives use a light sensitive paper ground
TRUE/ FALSE --- Both photographic processes, a negative and a daguerrotype, must maintain complete stillness in objects being exposed and are both exposed on photo sensitive metal plates.
|
Edweard Muybridge
Who is the artist who is credited with the first experiments in motion pictures (film) through his stop action photograph, Galloping Horse?
|
Maquette
Armature
What are the two mechanisms used in the modeling method: one is a small scale sculpture that is known as the "first draft," and the other an underlying metal support structure?
|
FALSE
Originated in the 1960's and 1970's
TRUE/FALSE: Site-specific was a blanket category for art that originated in the 1950's and 1960's, that defined art that was produced for a specific location, as artist desired to make work that existed beyond the gallery/museum walls.
|
Flying Buttress
Gothic Architecture developed a way to transmits the weight of the vault onto a masonry strut that extends beyond the walls of the building.
|
Photojournalism
Environmental
What is the purpose of photos serving as evidence of social issues/conditions/events?
What is the purpose of photos capturing nature's extraordinary characteristics? |
Narrative Editing
What type of editing is the use of multiple cameras for the same scene to provide multiple viewpoints, this type of editing makes use of "long-shots" patched and pasted with "close-ups?"
|
Carving and Casting
What sculpture method is the "subtractive process," and which one is the "substitution process?"
|
TRUE
All of these type are not necessarily permanent.
TRUE/FALSE: All types of site-specific art - land/environmental, ephemeral, public art and monuments can be temporary.
|
Cast-Iron and Steel
What two materials, both are prefabricated and assembled on sight, opened the gates in architecture to produce tall, slender structures, free of the clusters of internal columns?
|
Alfred Stieglitz
Who is artist who was the crusader for photography as an "art form" and did not use any technical manipulation of the negative, focusing on capture the "perfect image" that was expressive and evoked emotion?
|
Parallel Editing
What type of editing captures multiple narratives/events, through "flashbacks" and "flash-forwards," the shift the viewer between time frames?
|
TRUE-
Marble is the softest stone, is polishing in final stages and is altered by outdoor elements. Wood varies in hardness, but is still relatively soft, is sanded in final stages and is slowly deteriorated in outdoor elements.
TRUE/FALSE: Marble and wood both have innate strength, but due to relative soft material make-up, are very workable and can be finely "smoothed" in the final stages; however, both materials are not the most durable in maintaining their visual appearance
|
Monuments
What type of site-specific works are created to enhance or provide beauty to the environment, but also serve to visually preserve the memory of person, place or thing?
|
Masonry/Stone Domes
The concepts of shell architecture: inexpensive and lightweight materials and capabilities of spanning great spaces, replaced what type of historic architectural mechanism?
