1. I selected these two videos because ever since the PowerPoint project i enjoy learning about Michelangelo and his artwork. Also learning about art and what it represent and the effects it has is intriguing.
2. In the Drawings of Michelangelo it discusses his drawings and how they created how people looked at bodies and let people look deeper at Michelangelo himself. The video gives a background of his life his family and the time periods of his work. His artwork lets viewers see things how he saw them and in a way let them in his brain. His drawings and sculptures focuses on a very realistic and muscular body type.
In the video Power of Art: Caravaggio, Caravaggio never drew a thing. He would eyeball objects then paint and for models he would grab people off the street and bring them into the studio. In a way Caravaggio went against everything that everyone imagined as art and what they saw. Caravaggio started getting noticed as having real talent, but somehow also looked down on.
3. The two videos I picked relate with the readings when talking about each artist, their background, and how their artwork was looked at. Also the chapters talked about the kind of art that was being made in the time period and how each artist had an effect on it and put their own twist to it.
4. I actually really enjoyed these films compared to prior videos we've had to do reviews on. Seeing how Caravaggio only worried about himself and how he wanted to create his artwork was interesting and inspiring. The videos let me see what kinda artwork was being made in that time period more than the book had done.
