1. In the video "The Colonial Encounter: View of Non-Western Art and Culture" I learned that 1900s Paris worlds fair was the largest world fair with over ran for 8 months with over 50 million visitors that exposed the underlying nationalism of the event, half the area was devoted to French imperialism while the rest represented other nations' colonies,three figures from the fair represent three kings of the 19th century and they remain on exhibit today. In the video "Jackson Pollock: Michael Fried and T.J. Clark in Conversation" I learned that both regard Jackson Pollock as a major modern master,this conversation took place in National gallery of art in Washington, this film is the two men T.J Clark and Michael Fried giving their own thought objective description, analysis and interpretation on Pollocks work and Clarks emphasis is on the historical role of modern art while Fried is focused on the independence of its aesthetic.
2. The film "The Colonial Encounter: View of Non-Western Art and Culture," relates to our project, because the worlds fair is an exhibit of art pieces from across the world. The film "Jackson Pollock: Michael Fried and T.J. Clark in Conversation," relates to our project, because the men are giving an art criticism of the Pollocks work just as we did for each piece in our exhibition.
3. The film "The Colonial Encounter: View of Non-Western Art and Culture," goes in depth and talks about the important piece of the worlds fair. I found this video interesting because I have never even heard of the worlds fair before watching this. The film "Jackson Pollock: Michael Fried and T.J. Clark in Conversation," goes into depth on Pollocks piece, and talks about every detail. Helping you clearly understand how to arrive at an objective description, analysis, and interpretation of a work of art.
