Manifesto As Art
[ send me this paper ]
In the art world there have been many movements that
have aligned themselves with particular philosophies and, or, methods of
interpretation for their art. Among these movements are the futurists,
the Dada and the (early) surrealist movements that have distinguished
themselves with providing a manifesto of their intentions and beliefs.
This 6 page paper argues that manifestoes are, in and of themselves, art
objects that transcend the merely didactic and enter into the realm of
poetry or visual art, as well as providing arguments for their beliefs.
The Dadaist Manifesto by Tristan Tzara, Andre Breton's The Manifesto of
Surrealism and F. T. Marinetti's, Foundation and Manifesto of Futurism
are used as examples. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Miniature Painting in Pakistan: History, Influences and Future
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing the history, influences and contemporary issues in miniature painting in Pakistan and India. The art of miniature painting was first known to exist in Persia where it was imported from into India during the 1500s at the beginning of the Mughal dynasties. In the Mughal schools of artistry, the art of miniature painting was given a more intense and dynamic feel which differentiated it from the formal structures used by the Persians. The technique is very specific in its use of wasli paper, squirrel hair brushes and vivid water based paint applied in multiple layers to earn it a silky finish. When the Mughal dynasty was displaced, so too were many of the artists who then had to earn livings applying their craft to other objects such as walls and furniture. During the late 1800s, when Indian nationalism began to take place, a revival of the traditional arts led to the re-introduction of miniature painting into the educational system where artists could earn specialties in it. Today, the art of miniature painting is one of the more popular and traditional methods of art especially found in the graduates of the National College of Arts in Lahore, Pakistan, the only school in the world offering a specialty in miniature painting. Modern miniature artists apply traditional Mughal methods in their depictions of the contemporary world and the political and lifestyle issues in Pakistan.
Bibliography lists 6 sources.

[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing how and whether multiculturalism needs to be considered in pursuing the study of art.

The bottom line is that the artist needs to define her own reasons for pursuing art with any cultural meaning at all. Then the research undertaken to help define the directions and the subjects that the art will encompass will come to be better clarified. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
