Expectations for Art 210

Welcome to my Art 210 Projects and Assignments Blog!

Hello! My name is Kara. I am a sophomore here at the University of Tampa. My major here is International Business: Marketing and what led me to this course was that I recently added a minor in graphic design!
Upon entering Art 210 I had expectations of what I believe I will see throughout the course. As someone who is familiar with crafting design software, I expect to dig deeper behind graphics and learn the ins and outs of basic 2-D designs and to become more familiar with software. I expect to work as hard as humanly possible to excel at the tasks presented to me so that I will understand the information and build on it as I pursue the Graphic Design minor here at the University of Tampa.

Thank you for getting to know a little bit about me!

Détournement and Dada

The Earth itself is its own self-cleansing organ. It produces all humans. All humans are artists. All artists and the minds within them create structure, organization, and set the rules of society of what is considered beautiful. Yet, humans are arrogant and restless creatures. As a society, we do not allow norms and world leadership to go unquestioned. When more and more people question, the world changes. When the world changes, a movement occurs. And it is infectious. Dada was the infectious cultural movement that the world may have cleansed itself from once it ran its course. Yet, the next movement and every movement thereafter has been impacted by these artists. Since Dada, The Earth has forever lost its immune system that kept out the unstructured raw beauty created by this new wave of artists. A lot was in the mind of Swiss artists from 1916 through 1922. Every day was a question during World War I. Artists could answer the question of how their tomorrows would be with ...
