Video Review

Throughout the video, I learned the process in which Greek art has evolved overtime through the use of realism and formalism. Greek art began to evolve by the development of Christianity and the Greek culture. It was founded that contemporary art influenced forms of art for the European culture and Italy. The Greeks used art to portray human beings bodies in a realistic way by the use of sculptures; and in the 6th century realism and form evolved by the Athens art of humans, Gods, and animals. The videos relate to the readings because the focus was about the different centuries of art history and background. The readings was mainly about the history of art different backgrounds and the videos were about the history of Greek art, but I was able to connect them together. I learned that art itself evolved from symbolic figures in religious beliefs and cultures. The videos helped me understand the importance of knowing the background of art, the meaning behind artwork, and the inspirations from art. I was able to connect a better understand of certain art pieces I have seen previously because the videos explained how certain art began to transform and why certain artwork came about to be created.
