1. I selected the video about Matisse because I was interested in their creative process of making paintings. I chose Dada and Surrealism because I was interested in the movements that defined modernism in the 20th century.
2. I found it interesting that Matisse believed drawing and painting were the exact same process. In addition, it was interesting that Schwitters made his art in the 1920’s but became popular in the 1950s with the Dada movement. Schwitters did not want to be associated with artists, and wanted to create a different world from the old one.
3. These movies related to the text in the sense that they showed similar work but did a more in-depth explanation and created a better understanding for the viewer. I felt like the second video did a good representation of how Dada art was represented and the art that was made up during this movement.
4. I felt that the videos were interesting and gave a more in depth view of people and concepts in these videos. It was intriguing that they showed Matisse actually creating a painting. I thought the second movie showed a lot of good examples and techniques that related to the readings as well.
