1. 1. The West Coast Pop Art Video:
Lowbrow art – hard to categorize but a form of art, thought
to be a reaction against highbrow culture. Lowbrow was seen as “lacking of
taste”. Paintings included naked women and hot rods. Originally meant
pornography. Some say it’s like pop surrealism. It’s origin was in the 1960’s.
Tate Modern Video:
Modern art museum with five million visitors a year.
Interactive events happen in the art. It’s contempary art. “Temple of the far
art” Tate Modern represents a social change. Contempary art became more valued
because of Tate Modern. Wolff Olins, the creater, utilized the space very well.
People had a personal and collective experience.
2. 2. The video of Tate Modern helped me realize I
wanted to do the unique medium as my choice of theme for my exhibit for the
project.
3. 3. I really enjoyed the films. I had never heard of
the term “low brow” because and it was interesting to see a name put to that
form of art and the history behind it. And watching the Tate Modern video made
me realize how big of an effect art has on culture and people.
