Mod 13/14 Vid Review

The lowdown on lowbrow
Pop surrealism or lowbrow's influences include comic books,movies, rock music etc. Through interviews and examples this video talks about Lowbrow’s evolution. It is in relation to Abstract Expressionism. Artists talked about include Robert Williams, Isabel Samaras,  Anthony Ausgangi.

Tate Modern
This video talks about the Tate brand, created in 2000 by Wolff Olins. The video seeks to understand how the institution has become one of the most successful modern art museums in the world. Brian and Marina, along with Sir Nicholas Serota, and artists Tracey Emin, Grayson Perry and Rachel Whiteread explain to art critic Matt Collings how the organization set about realizing its ambition to revolutionize the way people perceive art.

An Acquiring Mind
The video talks about Philippe de Montebello, who worked for 31 years as Director of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. He guided the acquisition of more than 84,000 works of art, demanded innovation in conservation techniques, and oversaw the doubling of the physical size of this cultural institution.

Yes they relate to the project because some talk about museums and different works of art.
I thought the videos were interesting and provided new insight.
