Naïve art

This week, the teacher talked about Naïve art. Naïve artist means the artist not educated in school. The teacher introduced an artist, Hung Tung. He was a farmer before he began to paint. He started his artist career when he was fifty-five years old. He was good at using line structure, and the most wonderful part of his painting is the line and color he used. His painting is full of passion and religious. He was the representative artist of the tradition of the 1970’s Taiwan society.













I felt warm when I saw his painting, the things he painted was much closed to our lives. 

Monet’s Garden

Last weekend, I went to see Monet’s Garden, the famous exhibition in Taipei Fine Arts Museum. The exhibition showcased Monet’s famous paintings of scenery and flowers created in his garden in Giverny, accompanied by his other creations of landscape paintings. It’s the first time that I saw Impressionism’s exhibition. It took imagination to understand the paintings. The artist used the quick impression of the scenery and depicted light and shadow to draw the painting.

I had learned more about art by went to the exhibition, I thought it’s a good activity when you feel bored. Maybe next time you feel like doing something, go to an exhibition and you will find many new things to see and to learn.
