Relationship between form and content

English
2 answers:
STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago
7 0
Content - the subject matter of an artwork - is elucidated, or illuminated, or constrained or totally F'd up by the way an artist employs form. Form, which is all the physical aspects of an artwork (medium, color, structure, etc.), will determine if the content is communicated as the artist intends it to be. Or sometimes, on a tough day, just in some artistically acceptable manner. In the olden days, when content looked like reality, this was something a viewer was able to think about, to attempt to discern, to judge. It did not mean that the artist's intention was what the viewer actually saw. That is a totally different kettle of fish. But regardless of the viewer, it was a criterion of integrity for the artist.

Today, this has changed and become much more difficult. In much of abstraction, the boundaries between content and form have become substantially blurred....even in the mind of the artist, many of whom proceed in an essentially "contentless" fashion, or at least effectively so. In abstraction, what is the representation of an idea, after all? And even the abstraction of form has proceeded far past anything discernible, in most cases. So this traditional relationship, always so important for purposes of visual and philosophical clarity, not to mention the questions of integrity of meaning and intention, are today frequently absent.

Does this matter? I don't know that it does, from the perspective of a viewer. After all, a work of art either moves one or it doesn't. But for the artist? It certainly changes their practice. Is it better to simply go, without impediment or obligation to form? More emotive, certainly, more attention to structure, texture and color - the design elements, certainly. Does this potentially tap into something deeper? Or does it lose something deeper? Just what is it that the discipline of form adds??? I surely have no answers. But I have many questions.

Which sentence in the passage uses informal language?
notsponge [240]

Answer: The sentence which uses informal language is, I think that's pretty much all late for breakfast every day.

Explanation:

Informal language is a colloquial language which is often used in casual conversation. Such language cannot be used in academic writing. The passage mentioned above describes about the Paris trip.

If we look at the ending statement in the passage, ‘I think that's pretty much all late for breakfast every day’ we will notice that it contains a informal language which is ‘pretty much.’ The formal word for this term is ‘almost’ or ‘nearly’ which can be used in professional writing.

How does society both support and limit the development of identity?​
kow [346]

Answer:In society afflicted by racism, children of color have a profoundly difficult

task when it comes to developing a positive racial identity. They must

somehow reconcile conflicting messages about who they are and their value

in a society that grants privilege to white skin and devalues people with

darker skin. They must be helped to resist the message that the only way to

feel like a complete human being is by being white, by trying to “act white”

or talk like white children.

Explanation: this is a tough subject to talk apon. but this is an example.
