Week 8-Artwork Review



This week I chose this artwork which is done by Helen Moravsky: an artist who took honors in Visual Media and graduated from American University in Washington, D.C., in 197. She states that  "The base images [of my art} are culled from my vast and constantly growing collection of 19th and early 20th century photographs... The classical nature of the pieces comes from my love of classical architecture and the old photographs I collect. I look for photos that are specifically architectural in nature, not people shots..."


By looking at this piece, it is easy to see that it is influenced by the design of classical architectures. I personally love simple designs. Even though, the classical architectures are still beautiful. The classical ones have more details which I believe need lots of efforts.
