David Smith The Cuvix Analysis

A bit about the Author: Todd Smith teaches at Liberty University and directs the art studio for the school. He oversees the studio art groups, the art galleries on North campus along with the managing the Graphic Design program at the University. Todd Smith’s book does a great job of stating many facts about art and the creation of art within the church. His book takes us back to the 18th century art and then brings us up to today’s modern art. Showing how art has changed throughout the course of history. I think he did a great job showing the

For The Principles of Composition paper I chose two pieces of art that I thought dramatized one specific principle of art. I decided to chose “Temple I in the great plaza,” constructed by the Mayan Indians on page 276 and “Untitled” by Donald Judd on page 441. I thought both of these pieces of art were unique and displayed balance.

The use of triangles in the design of Indiana University Art Gallery connects it with another of Pei's creations: the Grand Louvre Pyramid. Pei's Grand Pyramid intentionally turns the tradition and notion of pyramid on its head. The glass pyramid seems to open up the Louvre to the world, which contrasts with the notion of pyramids as sturdy, concealed, and lonely.

One of the collections in the OKC Museum of Art is an exhibition of glass and drawings by Dale Chihuly. Currently the Oklahoma City Museum of Art is home to one of the largest collections of Chihuly glass in the world. Chihuly’s background includes a B.A. in interior design from the University of Washington, a M.S. in sculpture from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a M.F.A. in sculpture from the Rhode Island School of Design, & honorary doctorates from the University of Puget Sound & the Rhode Island School of Design. Chihuly is a very experienced artist to say the least. He was awarded a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation grant for work in glass and studied in Italy at the Venini glass factory on a Fulbright Fellowship. This museum holds over three decades of Chihuly’s finest work. All of his work is very eye catching and mesmerizing. His pieces also do not lack in color, and the way the light passes through the glass sets the tone for his work. You can tell that all of these pieces is the work of the same artists, Dale Chihuly.

In 2015, the pharmaceutical industry spent over 27 billion dollars on advertising. The two greatest components of this effort were promotional advertising and free medication sampling, which the pharmaceuticals invested 15.5 and 5.7 billion dollars respectively (“Persuading the Prescribers”). Promotional advertising involves direct contact with health professionals, the most common being extravagant lunch conferences held for physicians and their staff. On the other hand, sampling involves distributing free sample of medications to physicians, who then have a choice of providing these samples to patients. As a result of these methods, the industry has seen revenue around $400 billion with 90% of physicians having a relationship with a drug company (Campbell 2007). Moreover, the prices of prescriptions continue to rise; a copay of a generic drug is $11.72, preferred brand drug is $36.37 and a specialty drug is $58.37 (Coleman and Geneson 2014). Although the profits are immense in the numbers demonstrated above, it is no surprise when pharmaceutical drug companies elevate their prices even more. For instance, recently Turing Pharmaceuticals raised the price of their medication Daraprim from $13.50 to $750. Keep in mind, this medication is used for threatening parasitic infections, aids, and cancer with alternative options currently found to be inefficient (Pollack 2015). Another example of this practice involves cycloserine, a drug used to

Until the 19th century most artwork was created in a two or three-dimensional media. In England, William Fox discovered a technique that allowed camera images to be captured on paper. This medium has evolved since Fox’s discovery in 1839 to a serious and viable form of art today. Photography allows the artist to capture what he sees. The image produced is reality to the artists eye, it can only be manipulated with light and angles.

For my research paper, I decided to choose Donald Judd as my focus of the essay. Donald Judd is an American artist who was born in Missouri 1928. He was one of the most substantial artist of the 20th century. From what I've seen, all of his pieces are rather simple geometric in concept but are very appealing. During his early career as an artist, he began with painting before moving on to woodcutting. Judd had reject the idea of two-dimensional art and focused purely on three-dimensional art instead. In addition, organic designs were not found in any of his piece. Judd's pieces were abstract and had well-define shapes to it. This became his particular style which many people associated with minimalism.

So much more can be conveyed in artwork when a finite canvas doesn’t imprison an artist. Pushing the boundaries of artwork from previous time periods allows new artists and graphic designers to experiment with, challenge, and/or destroy the rules of graphic design. This allowed for designs that truly challenge the audience, as well as other designers. Take for example the grunge artwork of David Carson who broke most compositional and legibility rules of graphic design – his style can be summarized by the phrase “expressive deconstruction.” Anything from grunge, to street art, to carving writing into your own body with a knife is considered Contemporary Design. In this world of art no authority can tell you what you’re allowed to do. With the definition of art so stretched, it really gives a lot of freedom to those of the contemporary time period to express a wide range of ideas.

Now, let's talk about the charitable gift annuity. A charitable gift annuity is a simple contract between the donor and the charity. In exchange for the donor's irrevocable gift of cash, securities, or other assets, the charity agrees to pay one or two annuitants that the donor has named a fixed sum each year for life. The payments are backed by the general resources of the charity. The older their designated annuitants are at the time of the gift, the greater the fixed payment charity can agree to pay. In most cases, part of each payment is tax free, increasing each payment after tax value. If the donor gives appreciated property, the donor will pay capital gains tax on only part of the appreciation. In addition, if the donor names themselves as the first or only annuitant, the capital gains tax will be spread over many years rather than all due in the year of their gift.

Sir Henry Tate created 65 artworks where most of them displayed piteous acts. During the Victorian era, they created their spectacular pieces of art using materials like the typical marble you would notice in classic sculptures; however they didn't just use marble to create their work, they would use other fascinating materials since the Victorian era was known to be the time where the most talented artists would create the most beautiful pieces of art just by using a block of lime wood and a few whittled strands of string, sometimes sculptors(i.e. John Bell) would use iron, which is said to be too rigid to handle, to create small, yet refined, pieces of art. Later on, people decided to use electroforming and electroplating (dipping an object into a metal solution, then over time the object will form a thin layer of gold and silver on the top) since it was a lot cheaper. This started in the 1840s
