#Mona Lisa Canvas Prints

Mona Lisa sci fi by studioslv

[achievementhaunterss]

im watching Glass Onion and the Mona Lisa is on a canvas so my official theory is the Louvre DID sell the Mona Lisa to Bron but someone was like “this is a terrible idea” and switched it for a print confident that he wouldnt notice. and he didnt.

[starwarsgay]

Ok so glass onion right????

Crazy good, crazy detailed, and just generally gorgeous??? Like the costume design, the set design, the acting, the everything. Aside from the amazing plot twist(s), Janelle Monáe, and the social commentary absolutely going for elon musk and to a lesser extent joe rogan’s throats, the attention to detail is just *chefs kiss*

The main thing I loved specifically though was the attention to detail about the mona lisa- for the record a highly overrated painting that at this point is just famous for being famous but I digress. So the mona lisa is painted on a wood panel which is a special kind of hell for conservation, which is already hard enough because the mona lisa has been stored in less than ideal conditions with some weird over-cleaning and lacquers and stuff(i am by no means an expert) but the main point is, the actual mona lisa is a lot darker/duller in person because of this. In the movie however, it’s noticeably lighter and more vibrant. Now, this alone isn’t really enough to say omg the louvre lent him a fake, BUT ~spoilers~ as it burns at the end you can clearly see the *canvas* not wood, *canvas* and cracking and peeling and you can see the burned wood underneath. So… the louvre didn’t even trust this man child with the real mona lisa. They gave him a nice print and said yeah, that’s good enough. Anyways if you stuck through this without having watched glass onion first pls watch it, it’s amazing

if you create, you're an artist

we're starting to write our teaching philosophies in my art education class rn so excuse me while i go on a little bit of a ramble

I am a firm believer in the fact that anyone can be an artist. If you find joy and purpose in what you make, congrats! You're an artist. I don't care if it's a huge realism painting that could rival the Mona Lisa, a crochet blanket project you made as a gift, a lopsided bowl you made in ceramics, or even a throwaway doodle on a napkin at a restaurant. If you made it, and you found joy in it, it's art in my eyes and you're an artist.

I've had family members try and argue with me that art is some magical talent people are born with and they'd never be able to obtain the level of skill that I'm at. I say "not with that attitude." I believe that with the right tools and access to learning, anyone can learn to create. You can learn to draw, to paint, to knit, or crochet. You can learn ceramics and sculpting. You can learn. It takes a lot of practice and time to become a "master" at it, but that's how any skill works. I didn't pop out of the womb holding a paint brush and pallete and immediately be able to produce fully rendered semi-realistic paintings like I can now. Hell, I couldn't even do that a few years ago! It took most of my life messing around and practicing to get anywhere near as good as I am now. And guess what? I'm still learning and practicing. But we all start somewhere. It's the passion to create and the tools made available to us that allow us to thrive and grow as artists.

Sure, to some extent I know that some people are able to see color in different ways or have a better imagination. But if you don't, that doesn't mean you can't do art. Literally everyone sees the world differently. Some people are more go-with-the-flow thinkers, while some are more analytical. Some people jump right into an art project with no plan, others plan things out down to every single brush stroke. Maybe that means you don't do art as a career, but that doesn't mean you're not an artist. You can be both a lawyer and an artist, a doctor and an artist, a mathematician and an artist, a cashier and an artist. You can be anything and an artist.

Another thing about art is how many options there are. Painting, ceramics, print making, jewelry making, sculpture, photography, digital art, knitting. The list goes on and within those categories, there's more categories! For example, painting can be broken down into so many different types of paint: oil, acrylic, watercolor, gauche, and probably more. But my point is, if one medium doesn't work for you, there's a ton more options to pick from. That's the beauty of art. Let's say you're really struggling with painting realism. Proportions and colors just are lining up the way you want. You can't get the right angle and nothing looks right. Well, before you throw everything down in frustration and quit all art forever... might I suggest photography? Using a camera would allow you to still play with angles and color (or even black and white) while keeping those proportions just the way you want. You could explore different lens types or mess around with film. It's a whole new medium to explore. Or if you want to give painting another shot, there's a way to take photos and make an exact copy of said photo using grid lines on to a canvas to keep those same proportions. And color mixing can be thought of like a science in a way.

Anyways, do you see what I'm getting at?

There's many different ways to approach the teaching of art to make it accessible and fun. So even if you think you can't do it, a good teacher will help you find a way that makes sense.

Art is so versatile and there's literally no wrong answers or any wrong way to do it. It's all subjective. It's all open ended. It's meant to be fun and a way for people to express themselves, connect to others, and communicate without even speaking a word. There's an infinite amount of ways to play with mediums in art. You can start whenever and however you want. With enough time and practice you can make what you want. And if you're hesitant to start on the grounds of thinking you're not an artist I'm here to tell you that you're wrong.

Anyone can be an artist.

Okay, but the Mona Lisa didn't even burn like canvas in Glass Onion. It burned like thick paper. It really was a print in a frame.

[elkian]

Thinking about the timing of Glass Onion and losing it like

(Below: Big Spoilers for Glass Onion. Like, end-of-the-movie big spoilers. Open at own risk.)

Okay, it’s set in 2020. I don’t remember if a year even came up for the first Knives Out, but it didn’t matter much either.

So we’re set a few months into the Pandemic. This is a great character establishing setting that I’ll get into in a sec. But pretty fast into the movie, this becomes a non-issue.

I didn’t think much about it until after the movie, but it is actually important that Glass Onion is set during Covid. Why?

Okay, back to square one: Character establishment. We open on our colorful cast of people Zoom Meeting-ing for work (Lionel, Claire), streaming for an audience (Duke, Whiskey, technically Claire), and Birdie holding a party of a solid 30+ people, all unmasked, all crammed into a tiny room with a fucking fire dancer guy wandering around to predictable results*.

*(! Just realized something! We’ll come back to this.)

And then we go to Blanc, our intrepid hero?, and he is sitting in his goddamn bathtub playing Among Us with a bunch of pals online. We can see the stacks of books and other entertainment he’s gone through during this time as the scene pans out. His husband is baking.

This is important not only as a change of tone (beyond Ms. Brand’s short intro), but marks Blanc as being very much the everyman character in comparison. This is, for people who didn’t live through the hell of being an “”essential worker”“, a fairly relatable experience.

Then we get to the dock and we get an absolutely fantastic character establishment setup Again, with Blanc in his fitted, functional mask, Lionel and Peg in their medical masks of different calibers, Claire in a cloth mask that she doesn’t quite pull up right, Birdie in her fucking glamor net, and Duke and Whiskey in no masks at all and being equally careless with everyone else’s health.

And then we get the employee rolling up with the mystery gun that, apparently, just makes people immune to Covid in one shot?

This is useful for the following flow of the movie, where the pandemic is a sidenote at best, but it’s also a crucial establishing shot in a very different way:

Miles Bron is a fucking jackass.

2-3 months into what will be an incredibly deadly pandemic and he just happens to roll up with a blatant perfect Covid vaccine (or implied to be, given how the movie goes I think they should fuckin worry about that! Also Blanc being the only one bothering to ask what it is in the first place!!). A perfect vaccine for his buddies, and no one else.

This dude could, if this shot actually does what’s implied, cure the global pandemic on at least some level and this plot point never comes up again for the rest of the movie.

This is an incredible character establishment, and what with the Red Death setup, the puzzle box, and Brand’s response thereof, we actually get a pretty comprehensive character profile of Miles Bron before he ever appears on screen. An entitled, selfish asshole who cares only about entertaining himself (in the company of people he knows only care about him for his money, and later we find out he knows that they can, and will, stab a friend in the back for that cash), even though he clearly has the resources to help others.

The last mention we get of the pandemic in any way (chronologically, it does come up in the flashback) is his comment about why he apparently has the Mona Goddamn Lisa in his living room.

The Louvre has no tourists and France apparently needed a loan, so he gets the ML for collateral*.

*There’s a post going around about how the Mona Lisa is not painted on canvas, but Bron’s copy is, so he probably got a print rather than the real deal.

This is the point at the movie where the Pandemic setting appears to fade out. It gets to the point where I was wondering if we really needed to set this in 2020/during Covid specifically.

But you know what?

Our movie (big spoilers) ends with the destruction of said Mona Goddamn Lisa, by dint of Elon Musk’s Miles Bron’s egotistical idiocy. The pieces are all laid out neatly, we can see it coming to an extent (I got slightly spoiled by Tumblr posts so I can’t say for sure).

Bron is going to lose every investor, every cent in his stocks, every deal he ever cut, everyone who ever thought he was cool, because he fucked up this badly. Because his wonder fuel was exactly as unstable and deadly as everyone had been warning him for months if not years.

And it torched the Mona Lisa.

The Mona Lisa he had, that (if it were the real deal) would not have been missed immediately, because there was no one in the Louvre.

Because there’s a pandemic just getting started.

The way these movies tie everything up in a bow, foreshadow the end and reference the beginning so neatly, is just amazing to watch.

(Also I just here realized that Birdie’s party with its blatant fire hazard ending predictably is foreshadowing for the exact same thing to happen to Bron because they’re both incautious egotists wow!)

Aura Versus Accessibility - Reproduced Artwork

assignment 2

image from Curina.co

With a simple Google search, you can find yourself a printable version of any Van Gogh painting for your home. There’s no need to travel to MoMA or the Louvre Museum to see iconic artworks, instead you can just purchase them and enjoy them from the comfort of your own couch.

But, after framing and hanging this reproduced piece of art, we understand that this is definitely not the same as the authentic piece of work that we may know and love - it looks the same, may even be scaled to the same size, but something is off. According to Walter Benjamin, what we are lacking with our Google-downloaded print file is the aura of the original artwork.

Behind any highly valued artwork is the intention put in by the artist. For example, sticking to Van Gogh, that intention could’ve been his brush strokes on a canvas. Other intentions could be in location, in scale, in immersiveness, etc. Reproducing an artwork displaces its aura.

By displacing an aura, the original traditional artwork does not lose its value. The Starry Night is still the Starry Night, despite the fact that college dorms all over the world have it hanging in their entryways. There’s a reason that people flock to The Museum of Modern Art to experience the piece in person. The surreal feeling of its aura continuously brings people in and for this reason, no amount of reproduction can devalue the original painting. 

Walter Benjamin states that the mechanical reproduction of an artwork changes its cultural context. This is true and this can pinpoint where we lose the aura - the Mona Lisa in your kitchen is not contextually the same as the Mona Lisa at the Louvre. It’s safe to say that the experience has a large factor on the aura of an artwork. The cultural value we place on these artists and artworks help to build up this immense respect we have for the original pieces. So, this culturally (and even socially) constructed value surrounding the artworks is what differentiates the original piece from its reproduction, and also the reason why reproductions are even deemed acceptable. To grow so much respect and desire for pieces of artwork to the extent that they are so widely accessible demonstrates the value of the original pieces. As Walter Benjamin states the original piece does not lose its “uniqueness” but of course the value of the reproduction is far lower. 

I’d even argue that reproductions of artworks further the desire to see the original pieces in person. We see a version of a reproduction of artwork when we look at a high-res image of that artwork on our computer screens. We learn about art and the cultural context of it and once we finally see it in its entirety, it’s an entirely different experience. I’ve never seen the Mona Lisa in person but I have a clear image in my head of what it looks like - this is due to the accessibility of it. People explain the surrealness of seeing it in person, even how “her eyes follow you.” Can we say that if the Mona Lisa was just explained and the only way to see it was to travel to Paris, that it would be valued as much? I think the engraved image in our minds of the painting combined with the high cultural value we place on it create this desire to see it in person and experience its aura for ourselves. Without the accessibility aspect, learning about it could diminish the desire (at least for a visual learner) to see it in person.

Andy Warhol's 1964 Portrait of Marilyn Monroe Sells a $195 Million

One of Andy Warhol's iconic Marilyn Monroe portraits has become the most expensive 20th-century artwork ever to go under the hammer.

The 40-square-inch "Shot Sage Blue Marilyn," one of dozens of images the artist made of Monroe in the 1960s, sold for a record $195 million at Christie's in New York Monday evening.

Prior to the sale, Christie's had described "Shot Sage Blue Marilyn" as "one of the rarest and most transcendent images in existence." It has previously been shown at galleries including the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris and London's Tate Modern.

The auction house had initially said it was expecting bids "in the region of" $200 million.

Warhol's colorful reproductions of Monroe's photo portrait -- originally a publicity still from her 1953 movie "Niagara" -- are among his most recognizable works, alongside his signature paintings of Campbell's soup cans.

Using a technique called silkscreen printing, which duplicates images on paper or canvas using a layer of fine-mesh silk like a stencil, he began creating them in 1962, shortly after Monroe's death. As with his depictions of other famous figures, including Elvis Presley and Chinese leader Mao Zedong, the Pop artist created numerous versions of Monroe's portrait in various different colors and configurations.

Among the best-known is "Marilyn Diptych," owned by British gallery group Tate, which saw Warhol print a grid of 50 portraits across two canvases. Elsewhere, the Museum of Modern Art's "Gold Marilyn Monroe" features a single image printed against a gold background, while "Shot Marilyns" saw the artist shooting portraits of the star through the head with bullets.

In 1964, he developed a "more refined and time-intensive" new process that was "antithetical to the mass production he was best known for," according to Christie's. That year, he used it to create a limited number of portraits -- a rare group of works to which "Shot Sage Blue Marilyn" belongs -- before abandoning the technique.

While a handful of paintings are thought to have attracted price tags in excess of $200 million in private sales (including works by the Abstract Expressionist painters Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock), the feat has only once been achieved at auction -- by Leonardo da Vinci's "Salvator Mundi," which in 2017 sold for over $450 million. The previous auction record for a 20th-century painting was the $179.4 million paid for Pablo Picasso's "Les Femmes d'Alger (Version O)" in 2015.

The auction record for a Warhol work was previously held by "Silver Car Crash (Double Disaster)," which depicts the mangled aftermath of a road collision and sold for more than $105 million almost a decade ago. Several of the artist's other Marilyn images have also attracted huge sum at auction in recent years, with 1962's "White Marilyn" selling for $41 million in New York in 2014.

"Shot Sage Blue Marilyn," meanwhile, was owned by a succession of high-profile gallerists and collectors before being purchased by the late Swiss art dealer Thomas Ammann. The portrait was offered for auction by the Thomas and Doris Ammann Foundation Zurich, the charitable organization set up in his (and his sister's) name, which will use the proceeds to fund health and education programs for children worldwide, according to a press release.

n a press statement prior to the sale, Christie's chairman of 20th and 21st century art, Alex Rotter, described the work as "the absolute pinnacle of American Pop" and "the most significant 20th century painting to come to auction in a generation."

"Standing alongside Botticelli's 'Birth of Venus,' Da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa' and Picasso's 'Les Demoiselles d'Avignon,' Warhol's 'Marilyn' is categorically one of the greatest paintings of all time," he added.

The artwork was one of four Warhols in the Ammanns' collection on sale at Monday evening's auction. One of his famous "Flowers" silkscreen paintings went for $15.8 million, and "GE/Skull," which he created in collaboration with the late Jean-Michel Basquiat, fetched over $4.6 million. Warhol's sculpture "Heinz Tomato Ketchup Box" meanwhile sold for more than $478,000.

Elsewhere, works by Robert Ryman, Alberto Giacometti and Lucian Freud also went under the hammer. Two of the biggest sellers were paintings by American artist Cy Twombly, "Untitled" and "Venere Sopra Gaeta," which fetched $21 million and almost $17 million respectively.
