Week 6 Video Review

1) Through the Eyes of a Sculptor- In this video I learned how precise the art of sculpting is. I originally thought that an artist would just sit down and create a sculpture in one try. I did not realize how in depth the process actually is.

Glass and Ceramics- This video was very interesting. The process of creating glass art is very cool from heating to cooling as well as shaping. It is amazing how much glass can be manipulated when it is in molten form.

Installation Art- This video did a great job of providing great detail of what installation art is. I only   saw installation art as a 3-dimensional work that uses space to create the art. The video expanded my view by showing that even structures can be considered installation art.

2) The videos directly relate to the book by touching on all key topics. Seeing the visual side helps in understanding these concepts through demonstration.

3) The videos were very insightful. Art is something that can be very complex and difficult to learn by simply reading. The videos provide visual foundation and depth to the topics from the text.
