last video blog

1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
 
The Lowdown on Lowbrow- art that no one can categorize. basically art that does not want to be defined and did not want to put any type of label on their art.
 
Displaying Modern Art- art had stayed classic for so long, until about the 70's which is when loud, bright colors and busy patterns started being used.
 
Bones of Contention- bones of Native Americans that were taken to study from the genocide should be given back to the Native American tribes, and not been taken to be treated as "toy whistles".  They need a proper burial.
 
Picture Perfect- this is a movie about the man who created Kodak, which I find very interesting because I have been to the Kodak museum.
2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Exhibition project? If yes, explain how. If no, explain why not.
Yes because not all art can be defined by one category.  Greek Gods represented by art can be explained in many different ways, and do not have one solid meaning, kind of like lowbrow.

3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of the art concepts you practiced while creating your curation project?
I enjoyed the films. I enjoyed how each film talked about a completely different type of art to show different ways that we coulod go about thsi project.
