Art Curation Videos

1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.

2. Do the videos relate to the creation of your Art Exhibition project? If yes, explain how. If no, explain why not.

3. What is your opinion of the films? Do they add depth to understanding of the art concepts you practiced while creating your curation project?

1. The video on Lowbrow West Coast Pop Art was very interesting. Some key concepts are that lowbrow art was created to go against the 'highbrow' "color blocks and urinals" in art galleries. This type of art is often looked down on. It is sometimes looked at as surreal art as well. It has a very 'anyone can play' attitude. 
2. I liked this video a lot, and it could go along with my exhibit. I would have to find art about nature that was done in this style. 
3. I loved this film. I thought it was so fun and interesting, and it really helped me understand this art form.


1. The video about modern art's key concepts are how curators figure out how to display modern art. There are a lot of challenges that go along with modern art. You must make sure that the art is safe, and that it can be viewed as it was meant to be seen.
2. Yes, I think that this can relate to my curator project because it goes into the mind of a curator and it showed me all the work that goes into an exhibit. 
3. This video was great because it showed the evolution of modern art, and how curators learn how to properly display exhibits. 


1. In the Native American video some key concepts were who has the right to certain objects that could be considered art? This is a very interesting subject. Do museums have a right to them because they are historical, or do the ancestors have the rights because it belongs to their culture? This is something curators need to take into account when creating exhibits. 
2. I don't think this was too helpful for my project. Although it is about nature in some way, I don't think I will be including sacred remains in my exhibit.
3. I liked this video and found it to be interesting and informative.


1. In the video "Picture Perfect" some key concepts are George Eastman created the first affordable camera, which brought photography to the masses. Through his invention this art form became accessible to many different people. 
2. I think that his is useful to me because I might be displaying some photos are art in my exhibit and this gives vital information.
3. I found this video to be very interesting and informative on the subject of photography.
