Module 11 Video Blog

   1.  I chose to watch Matisse and Picasso and The Impact of Cubism because they relate to each other.  Picasso was a Cubism artist.  Matisse was the complete opposite so it gives me a chance to see the difference between the two artists.   I also found Cubism interesting while I was reading about it in the text so I wanted to learn more.
   2. Matisse and Picasso talks about each artist’s style.  It shows multiple pieces from both artists and how different they are.  It also talks about why they created art the way that they did.  The Impact on Cubism talks about where it originated.  It started off because artists wanted to portray form and space in different ways.  It talks about six different pieces of art and how they are considered Cubism.
   3. These videos talk about artists and forms of art that are mentioned in the book.  It elaborates on what was read in the book.  For example, one piece of Picasso’s work is mentioned in the book, and the video takes that information further by explaining why he paints with the Cubism style.  The textbook also talks about Matisse and allows the video to take his work one step further.
   4. I found the videos educational.  They took each artist to a whole new level and I really understand why they painted the way that they did.  The videos also broke down the similarities and differences between the two artists.
