Art Criticism for the Artless (and Clueless)

 

Pick one term from each column and create your own unique critique. You will certainly impress, and perhaps stymie, even the most knowledgeable art aficionado.

 

This work/piece/drawing/painting/sculpture:

evokes

a certain

chiaroscuro

linearity

depicts

something of a

subtle

two-dimensionality

involves

a rather

surprising

perspective

exudes

a particularly

ephemeral

negative capability

portrays

a decidedly

organic

fluidity

elicits

a notably

audacious

narrative

attempts

a remarkably

jarring

contrast

conveys

an unexpectedly

compelling

negative space

implies

a uniquely

unapologetic

palette

reveals

an unusual but/and

engaging

use of materials

makes use of

an almost

overwhelming

technique

is invested with

a naively

marvelous

directness

expresses

an intentionally

refreshing

energy

presents

an overtly

innovative

composition

depends upon

an extremely

appealing

rhythm

contains

a wonderfully

ingenious

design

entails

a consciously

jejune

simplicity

is imbued with

an infectiously

facile

minimalism

strikes me as having

a fully realized and

complex

paradox

incorporates

an altogether

effusive

authenticity

Not gonna lie: sometimes my marking rubrics look like that. 

This comment conveys a remarkably jarring authenticity.

@truthfinder, the last class of my degree next fall is with your favourite homeboy JACK MAC. It is a whole course on Aquinas.

Nice!

Would you like me to convey to him your best regards? ;)

I have the feeling he probably wouldn't remember me. If anything, I wouldn't want the memory of me to ruin his day.

:hehe: You never know though, sometimes those old guys have good memory for weirdly specific events.
