T e x tu r e , Juxta / position & Collage

1. Texture, Juxta/position& Collage (color too!)

2. Texture

3. Exhibit A: Actual Texture • texture that can be felt: it has TACTILITY, differentiation of surface quality (dimensionality)

4. Exhibit B: Implied/Visual Texture • Texture that is suggested through variation in material application (brush stroke, mark-making) or PATTERN on a fabric (photographs of actual texture or patterned fabrics become implied textures; you can no longer feel the difference in surface—It’s either matte or glossy!) Van Gogh-Starry Night

5. Implied/Visual Texture • Surface is completely smooth (no brush strokes). Artists can suggest the feeling of tactility, a specific texture, for example in Kurt Kauper’s Diva painting series, the subjects appear to be wearing silk, taffeta, or fur clothing… so we get the sensation of smooth, silky, furry. Adds to sensuality of subject. Kurt Kauper-Diva Fiction #? Harry Clarke-Tales of Mystery and Imagination-from Poe

6. Juxta/position

7. Juxta/position • In Literature it’s called Contrast: two objects or texts that oppose each other … implies contradiction, an oxymoron: Example sentence: “It's raining, but I am not taking an umbrella.” • In visual design: placing two images or materials alongside each other & forcing them to share the same space. At first glance, they appear “random” completely unrelated / different….While longer engagement produces similarities.

9. Chimera • A mythical creature who’s a mixture of at least two different animals • For example: torso is lion, goat head sprouts out of back and snake grows from what would be lion’s tail • Fierce, fire-breathing creatures, that had to be slain by the most courageous fighters “Chimera of ArezzoI, anItalian, Etruscan bronze statue

10. Geep • 1984 England • A sheep-goat chimera: combination of goat & sheep embryos results in an animal which contains both DNA/cell sets Lisa the Geep, born on the farm of Klaus Exsternbrink, in Schwerte, Germany

11. Collage

12. Collage Collage • French word coller = to glue. • An assemblage of mixed media used on a two dimensional surface applied with glue. Materials: ribbon, paint, fabric, newspaper, scrap papers, photographs, found objects . . . *We’ll be creating digital collages, imitating the act of “pasting” images together in Photoshop

13. A brief Timeline… • 200 BC China: Calligraphers integrated poetry/text + image • Medieval Europe: gold leafing integrated in Gothic Cathedrals • 19th century: collaging became a “hobby,” the precursor for scrap-booking • **Art Historians consider collages’ birth coming out of Modernism in • the early 20th century**

14. Modern Artists:Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque Worked together on Cubism style then began incorporating surprising materials into paintings…. Compotier avec fruits, violon et verre Fruitdish and Glass, 1912, papier collé and charcoal on paper

15. WARHOL & BALDESSARI • Artists from 1960’s – present who combine materials from: Mass Media, Advertising and Film, and Text(ure) and Color • Result: juxtaposition of disparate images create narrative (photo)Montages/Collages
