Merely to see, therefore, is not enough. It is necessary to have a fresh, vivid, physical contact with the object you draw through as many of the senses as possible — and especially through the sense of touch. Our understanding of what we see is based to a large extent on touch.

aig reference wiki wikipedia artist painting painter symbolism Swiss Arnold Böcklin

shared by Ian Yang on 13 Jul 09 - Snapshot

Influenced by Romanticism his painting is symbolist with mythological subjects often overlapping with the Pre-Raphaelites. His pictures portray mythological, fantastical figures along classical architecture constructions (revealing often an obsession with death) creating a strange, fantasy world.

Böcklin is best known for his five versions of Isle of the Dead, which partly evokes the English Cemetery, Florence, close to his studio and where his baby daughter Maria had been buried. An early version of the painting was commissioned by a Madame Berna, a widow who wanted a painting with a dream-like atmosphere.^[1]

Böcklin exercised an influence on Surrealist painters like Max Ernst and Salvador Dalí, and on Giorgio de Chirico.

Living 400 years ago in the time of the counter reformation; in the time of Shakespeare; Caravaggio staged scenes with lighting that inspires modern film directors.

Having lived with high quality images and movies; it is difficult for us to conceive the effect his realism had in its days. Every one of his works raised a scandal; and each one haunts us with intrigue even today.

Artists have long been trying to understand how we preceive, and much of our understanding of vision comes from learning how artists manipulate images into meaningful and realistic scenes.

According to Professor McKim, visual thinking is carried on by three broad kinds of visual imagery: images we see (not the things themselves we are seeing); images we imagine (and dream); and images we draw.

Borrowed this book from a local library a couple of weeks ago. To be honest, it's a bit shocking to me 'cause this book offers a new and quite thought-provoking perspective that helps me to interpret art in a way I have never imagined.

Here is another website that gathers few paragraphs from the last chapter about how publicity disguises itself in the form of art and influences our daily life physically and mentally.

Just bumped into this great article about how to build and host a web site. There are lots of general ruls and tips which I think are very helpful for those self-promoting artists, photographers, designer, freelancers, etc. Just remember: make it easier for the world to reach you and recognize your hard work and telant! :P
