ART&TECHNOLOGY
Activity 1 Watch the vide and answer the questins.
1. Hw many artwrks did yu see?2. What methds did they use t create the artwrks?3. Did yu think technlgy can be cnsidered a frm f art?
Activity 2Read the passage and cmpare yur ideas with thse f the authrs.
Think “art”. What cmes t yur mind? Is it Greek r Rman sculptures in the Luvre, r Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern f lights?
The artwrks by American artist Janet Echelman lk like clurful flating cluds when they are lit up at night. Visitrs t ne f her artwrks in Vancuver culd nt nly enjy lking at it, they culd als interact with it literally. They did this by using their phnes t change its clurs and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art?
Visitrs t ne f her artwrks in Vancuver culd nt nly enjy lking at it, they culd als interact with it literally.
Visitrs nt nly liked t lk at ne f her artwrks in Vancuver but als were able t cnnect themselves with it.
Whatever yur pinin, peple have been expressing their thughts and ideas thrugh art fr thusands f years. T d this, they have used a variety f tls and technlgies. Yet Michelangel and thers have been labelled as “artists” rather than “technicians”. This means that art and technlgy have always been seen as tw very separate things.
Whatever yur pinin, peple have been expressing their thughts and ideas thrugh art fr thusands f years.
N matter what yu believe, the fact is that peple have been using art t express their thughts and ideas fr thusands f years.
Tday, hwever, technlgical advances have led t a cmbinatin f art and technlgy. As a result, the art wrld is changing greatly. Nw art is mre accessible t us than ever befre. Take fr example ne f China’s mst famus paintings frm the Sng Dynasty, Alng the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwrk is rarely n display, peple have smetimes queued up t six hurs fr a chance t see it.
Once in frnt f the painting, they nly have limited time t spend taking in its five metres f scenes alng the BianRiver in Bianjing. Thanks t technlgy hwever, millins mre peple have been able t experience a digital versin f this painting. Three-dimensinal (3D) animatin means that viewers can see the characters mve arund and interact with their surrundings. They can als watch as the different scenes change frm daylight int nighttime.
The art-tech cmbinatin is als changing ur cncepts f “art” and the “artist”. Nt nly can we interact with art, but als take part in its creatin. With new technlgical tls at ur finger tips, mre and mre peple are explring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art frms, such as digital paintings and vides.
With new technlgical tls at ur finger tips, mre and mre peple are explring their creative sides.
We have new technlgical tls at hand, which enable peple t explre their creative sides.
Hwever, the increase in the amunt and variety f art prduced has als raised questins ver its verall quality. Can a vide f smene slicing a tmat played in slw mtin really be called “art”?
Hwever, the increase in the amunt and variety f art prduced has als raised questins ver its verall quality.
Althugh the amunt and variety f art prduced is increasing, its verall quality seems t be reduced.
Similarly, such develpments are making the line between art and technlgy less distinct. Can smene unfamiliar with traditinal artists’ tls really call themselves an “artist”? And is the artist the creatr f the art itself, r the maker f the technlgy behind it?
A recent prject used technlgy and data in the same way that Rembrandt used his paints and brushes. The end result, printed in 3D, was a new “Rembrandt painting” created 347 years after the artist’s death. These advances are perhaps bringing us clser t a time when cmputers rather than humans create art.
Where technlgy will take art next is anyne’s guess. But ne thing is fr sure—with s many artists explring new pssibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
Activity 3Organise infrmatin frm the passage and cmplete the diagram.
Think& Share
1. What effect d yu think technlgy will have n art in the future?
2. D yu knw f any artwrks created mainly by technlgy?
3. What wrk f art can yu create with the help f technlgy?
4. Which f the tw reading passages in this unit, bth abut the artists’ inspiratin, d yu prefer? Why?
Wrk in grups and have a debate n whether technlgy has had a psitive effect n art.1. Divide each grup in half. Each half takes a side in the debate.2. D further research t find mre arguments and supprting examples besides thse in the passage.3. Organize yur ideas frm the mst imprtant t the least imprtant.
