Module 11: Video Review

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
The videos I chose were The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th Century to the Present and The Impact of Cubism. I chose these videos because I felt it would be interesting to watch videos on topics I am not familiar with. 
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
In the first video, The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th Century to the Present, I learned that Goya's paintings were seen as horrid. I also learned that after Goya's death, painters after him started painting things that showed happiness, such as celebrations and dancing. In the second video, The Impact of Cubism, it was about Picasso actually inspired Gris. I also learned cubism is one big painting that uses a lot of geometric shapes to make one image.  
3. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The videos relate to the reading because they both talked about the many different kinds of artwork during this time period. For example, like cubism. The videos also expanded on information that was in the reading. 
4. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to the understanding of the readings and art concepts?
I felt that the videos were very long. However, I felt that they were very informative. The films touched on information that was not given in the reading. It also showed many different artworks that were not within the reading.
