1. MOVEMENT Used by artists to direct viewers through their work, often to focal areas Movement can be directed along lines, edges, shapes, and colors within the works, but moves the eye most easily on paths of equal value Variations of movement are: Actual movement (KINETIC), Recorded action, Compositional movement

2. Kinetic: work that actually moves and changes over time; form changes from moment to moment Alexander Calder

3. Theo Jansen Walking Sculpture (powered by wind)

4. Recorded Action- action that is recorded in still photography or movies Eadweard Muybridge

5. Thomas Edgeron “Densmore Shute Bends the Shaft” 1938

6. This type of movement can also be implied in drawings and paintings…

7. Fuzzy outlines: when figures move past us at very high speeds, we perceive that figure as somewhat blurry or indinstinct outlines as conveying motion

8. Giacoma Balla “Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash”

9. Multiple Image: showing multiple overlapping images gives us the impression of motion. We can see that the person or figure has moved through a series of poses Duchamp “Nude Descending a Staircase” 1912

10. Anticipated movement : live figures portrayed in unstable body positions cause us to feel that motion is imminent. We know that from past experience with these positions that some kind of movement will occur. This heightens the feeling of motion.

11. Optical Illusions: the repetition of geometric shapes or the varying thickness of lines will cause the eye to produce motion where none is present

12. “Movement in Squares” 1961 Bridget Riley

13. Compositional Movement Is neither action nor a record of action Experienced by comparing the positions of stationary objects or spaces within a design Present in both 2D and 3D art

14. 2-D Art: movement occurs through the manipulation of the objects, lines, textures, shapes, etc…within a design to lead your eye to a particular area

20. RHYTHM Visual rhythm, which is similar to pattern, may be produced by repeating one or more motifs in a recognizable or predictable order. An artist will use rhythm to help organize a composition, and also to create interest, emphasis, or unity. There are 5 types of rhythm-Regular, Alternating, Flowing, Progressive, Random

21. Regular: a repeated pattern that is both predictable and continuous; intervals between elements and often elements themselves are similar in size and length

22. “Real Materials Existing in Real Space” Donald Judd

23. Alternating: 2,3 or 4 patterns or images that repeat alternately. These patterns or images may vary slightly MC Escher

24. “Candied Apples” Wayne Thiebaud 1987
