Architecture
Architecture is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. The word architecture comes from the Greek arkhitekton, "master builder, director of works", from αρχι- (arkhi) "boss" + τεκτων (tekton) "builder, carpenter".[3] A broader definition would include the design of the built environment, from the macro-level of urban planning, urban design and landscape architecture to the micro-level of creation. of furniture. Architectural design should typically take into account both feasibility and cost for the Builder, and function and aesthetics for the user.
In modern usage, architecture is the art and discipline of creating, or inferring an implicit or apparent plan for, a complex object or system. The term can be used to connote the implicit architecture of abstract things like music or mathematics, the apparent architecture of natural things, like geological formations or the structure of biological cells, or explicitly the planned architectures of man-made things like software, computers, businesses, and databases, as well as buildings. In all uses, an architecture can be seen as a Mapping (mathematical)|mapping]] subjective from a human perspective (that of the user in the case of abstract or physical artifacts) to the elements&action=edit&redlink=1 "(Mathematical) Elements (not yet redacted)") or components of some type of structure or system, preserving the relationships between the elements or components. Planned architecture manipulates space, volume, texture, light, shadow or abstract elements to achieve a pleasing aesthetic. This distinguishes it from applied science or engineering, which tend to focus more on the functional and feasibility aspects of the design of buildings or structures.
In the field of building architecture, the skills required of an architect range from the most complex, such as those of a hospital or a stadium, to the seemingly simplest, such as the planning of residential houses. Many works of architecture can also be considered cultural and political symbols, or works of art. The role of the architect, although changing, has been fundamental to the success (and sometimes failure) of designing and realizing pleasant built environments in which people live.
Ceramics
Ceramic art is art made with ceramic materials (including clay), which can take forms such as pottery, tile, figurines, sculpture and tableware. While some ceramic products are considered fine art, others are considered decorative, industrial or applied artistic objects. Pottery can also be considered artifacts in archaeology. Ceramic art can be made by one person or a group of people. In a pottery or ceramics factory, a group of people design, make and decorate ceramics. The products of a pottery are sometimes called "artistic ceramics." In a one-person pottery studio, ceramists or potters produce studio pottery. In the modern use of ceramic engineering, "ceramics" is the art and science of manufacturing objects from inorganic and non-metallic materials through the action of heat. Excludes glass and mosaic made with glass tiles.
Concept art
Conceptual art is art in which the concepts or ideas involved in the work take priority over traditional aesthetic and material concerns.
The term's inception in the 1960s referred to a strict, focused practice of idea-based art that often challenged traditional visual criteria associated with the visual arts in its presentation as text. sculpture.
Drawing
Drawing is a means of making an image, using a wide variety of tools and techniques. Typically, this involves making marks on a surface by applying pressure from a tool, or by moving a tool across a surface. The most common tools are graphite pencil, pen and ink, tinted brush, wax crayons, colored pencils, charcoal, pastel and markers. Digital tools are also used that can simulate their effects. The main techniques used in drawing are "stroking, hatching", cross-hatching, random hatching, scribbling, stippling and blending. An artist who excels at drawing is called a drawer.[6] Drawing can be used to create art used in cultural industries such as illustrations, comics and animation. Comics are often called the "ninth art" (le neuvième art) in French-speaking scholarship, adding to the traditional "Seven Arts".[7].
Paint
Painting is a mode of creative expression, and can be done in numerous ways. Drawing, gesture (as in gestural painting), composition "Composition (visual arts)"), narration (as in narrative art), or abstraction (as in abstract art), among other aesthetic modes, can serve to manifest the expressive and conceptual intention of the practitioner. Paintings can be naturalistic and representative (as in a still life or landscape painting), photographic, abstract, narrative, symbolic (as in symbolic art), Expressionism), or of a political nature (as in Artivism).
Modern painters have considerably expanded the practice to include, for example, collage. Collage is not painting in the strict sense, since it includes other materials. Some modern painters incorporate different materials such as sand, cement, straw, wood or strands of hair for their texture work "Texture (paint)"). Examples of this are the works of Jean Dubuffet or Anselm Kiefer.
Photograph
Photography as an art form refers to photographs that are created according to the creative vision of the photographer. Fine art photography contrasts with photojournalism, which provides a visual account of news events, and with commercial photography, whose primary purpose is to advertise products or services.
Sculpture
Sculpture is the branch of visual arts that operates in three dimensions. It is one of the plastic arts. Durable sculptural processes originally used carving (the removal of material) and modeling (the addition of material, such as clay), in stone, metal, ceramics, wood, and other materials; but since modernism, changes in the sculptural process led to an almost total freedom of materials and processes. A wide variety of materials can be worked by extraction such as carving, assembled by welding or modeling, or molding&action=edit&redlink=1 "Molding (process) (not yet drafted)"), or casting.
