Romare Bearden's



Romare Bearden's "Slave Ship" was created in 1972. The images focused mainly on the culture and religion.  This is a good piece because i like the small attention to detail at the bottom and the picture makes sense but also has other random elements in It.

Lito Mayo

Image
Lito Mayo was a Filipino  artist since the 1970's. I love the creativity in this painting,  Self-Portrait of Lio Mayo made in 1981. He was not known as a Dada artist but they considered his work to be apart of the Dada movement. He was offically known as a  Filipino graphic artist, print-maker, avantegarde poet, social activist, sculptor, satirist, and art professor. He spent a lot of time in museums working on art pieces before moving into his offical career as an artist.

I believe Duchamp made this just to have fun being immature with paintings that have been considered sophisticated for many years.

Looking at this painting more, I also like how you can see the different brushstrokes used at the time and how it has great composition.
