Project description
assignment 1
Conduct a visual analysis of this 2ndC Bodhisattva. Discuss the stylistic and formal elements of this sculpture and what elements seem to be influenced by or drawn from other cultural stylistic characteristics? What can this tell us about concepts and representations of gods throughout history and cross-culturally?
assignment 2
Pablo Picasso and Diego Rivera looked to various styles for inspiration such as African and Pre-Columbian artwork. Are you influenced by or pull from other cultures in the thought process and design of your work?
What about from the artwork we have studied so far in this class (Pre-historic, Japanese earthworks, land works, ephemeral art, Hindu, Buddhist and Pre-Columbian religious imagery)?
