How People See Movement in Art • When you see a piece of art that contains dancers dancing, you can almost hear the music flying through your ears, you can see them dancing with the music. • You can also see movement in action because the piece of art is just frozen in an unstable position.
Movement Can Be Seen in Other Principals and Elements of Art • Artists wanted to show movement in different ways, so they tried using balance. • Line is used a lot in movement. Using different types of lines can make movement. The artist is using lines to create the feeling of movement.
• Movement is also shown in repetition The artist is using repetition to create the cycle of movement. Peter Jansen
The Beginning of Movement • Eadweard Muybridge began movement in art. He tried to paint a painting that was a photo in action. People wondered how can you show movement in a painting when it is literally not moving? • Alexander Calder was the first artist to create sculptures that actually moved. Eadweard Muybridge
How Can Movement Be Shown In Art When It Is Not Literally Moving? • Movement can be shown in lots of different ways because everyone sees art differently. • This painting contains movement because the lines on the dress look like they’re falling in the woman’s pose.
