Reflections of AED

When this course started, I expected to expand my knowledge and get out more and explore local art galleries. These expectations were definitely met. This course allowed me to be exposed to so much art that I didn't even know was out there. I would define art as anything that went through a creative process to be made. For example, Duchamp's ready mades weren't something he created himself, but put out in the world for others to take a different perspective of them...that is art. Andy Warhol was my favorite artist in my first post and now I really cant even say who my favorite is. I definitely love Salvador Dali and any artist in the book that created strange pieces that made you think about them. Warhol and Dali are at complete different ends of the spectrum. Warhol created pop art while Dali created surreal paintings. Both artists have an interesting personality which is what attracts me to their art.
