Art One - Picasso and van Gogh videos

Watch the following video about Picasso.  Which painting is your favorite and which is your least favorite and why?  Picasso was the founder of the Cubism art movement along with George Braque.  Advances in art had been made by the Impressionists (Monet, Renior, Degas) and Post Impressionists (van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin) to allow room for this new way of painting.

  1. I would say my favorite was "The Barefoot Girl". It's astounding how he was able to create such a beautiful work when he was ONLY 14 years old. In contrast, I would say my least favorite painting was the one shown at 2:45 in the video. I'm not particularly fond of how disturbing and offsetting it is compared to some of his other cubism works.

  2. My favorite painting of Picasso's is the one at 3:33. I like how the colors pop out at you, unlike his other paintings. My least favorite painting of his is the one at 3:40 because there is so much going on and it doesn't make much sense. -annabel wilson

  3. my favorite painting is the one by Van Gogh because it's like a house and it looks very mystical. my least favorite painting is the girl because i can't really see much meaning into it. it doesn't make clear sense to me on what it's about.

  5. My favorite painting is the one of the house because of all the details and the way Van Gough painted the ground and the sky. My least favorite is the one of the girl by Picasso because I don't like that kind of art as much.

  6. My favorite painting is the painting of the girl because I cannot believe that he was only 14 when he painted it. My least favorite is the cubism paintings because I don't really like cubism.

  7. My least favorite was the painting of the The Barefoot Girl because I do not really like that style of art ,but i do think it is neat that he created it at such a young age. I liked Picasso's paintings of the distorted facial and body features the most. I like these type of paintings because they are unique and they brought a different aspect to the art world. -karsten herron

  8. My favorite Piece of art by Picasso was the "Barefoot Girl" it is just incredible how such a young person could paint and crate something like that. I didnt dislike any of his paintings. He has a real eye for art and i strive to be like him. He is very Inspiring!

  9. My least favorite of Picasso's is his first distortion pieces from the thirties shown towards the beginning. I don't love it because, to be quite honest, it is creepy. My favorite piece, or at least the piece I am most impressed with, is the "barefoot girl". This impresses me because he painted it at age fourteen, and I personally have no major accomplishments from when I was fourteen. It really puts priorities and success into perspective for me.

  12. My favorite painting the barefoot girl because is so good for him to be painting that at age 14. I didn't like the sculptures as much because they don't have color and don't tell stories like his paintings. -ella tanner

  16. i really dont love picassos work to be honest. BUT if i had to pick a favorite it would be "The Barefoot Girl". I dont like his sculptures or many of his paintings. i also think cubism is a weird way of art, but still very intresting

  19. "The Barefoot Girl" is my favorite because of all the detail. Her hands are painted so well along with all the details in her face. The pop art wasn't all that interesting to me because it was so simple

  22. My favorite one was the distorted one because it showed how creative Picasso was and that he had quite the artistic eye. My least favorite was the "Barefoot Girl" because it doesn't have much color or nothing fun about it.- Mary Daniel WIndham

  23. My favorite painting from Picasso is the on titled "The Barefoot Girl." I like this one because it is really good and also because he painted it when he was fourteen and I am forteen so this reminds me I can pint anything. My least favorite painting is probably the one at 2:35. I dont like this one very much because i can't really tell what it is and i prefer art that i can make out and decide whats what.

  25. I really like all the distorted paintings. They're very unusual and not something we see every day. I don't like the portraits as much because they seem very bland and not unique like the rest of Picasso's work.

  26. I like the barefoot girl because he had that good of talent at age 14 and he only got better. The one I didn't really like was the one at 2:48 because it is hard to understand and to see whats happening.

  27. I like the distorted ones he did later in life because they more interesting to look at. My least favorite are the ones he did when he was younger like "Barefoot Girl" because it's more traditional. -Bailey Casteel

  29. My favorite painting is the one at 2:26 because the striking shapes and the abstract depiction of the women is really cool to look at. My least favorite painting is at 2:46 because it is less colorful and complex than others and it kind of disturbs me.

  35. My favorite painting was the one found at 2:40. I like it the best because of the colors used in it and the fact that it is very abstract.
