  • Critical Analysis Of Romare Bearden's The Family, 1941

    1303 Words  | 3 Pages

    I chose to analyze the The Family, 1941 portray and The Family, 1975 portray, both from Romare Bearden, for this essay because they are very similar paintings but at the same time very different. To write a critical analyzes it was necessary to choose two different paintings that had similar characteristics. The text about critical comparison said that to compare things they have to be similar, yet different, and that’s what these paintings look to me. As I had already written an analysis of The Family, 1941 portray I chose to analyze and compare The Family, 1975 this time. Both works have a lot of color in it and through the people’s faces in the pictures we can feel the different emotions that the paintings are conveying.

    That brings us to the last segment of our concert, the Modern Era. Traditoinal musical instruments in the modern period have not changed nearly as much as they have in the 18th and 19th centuries.

This evening’s selections do not include any such selections with electronic instruments; however, there are arrangements available for the electric instruments such as the organ, keyboard or syntehsizer, or electric guitar.

This composition has five moments which are the introduction, games of Paris, elegy, interrupted Intermezzo, and the finale.

According to the program this took place at the Hieronymus Monastery in Lisbon, Portugal. The Hieronymus Monastery is a gorgeous performance space. The monastery has high ceilings with a large arch. The ceilings even have a beautiful circular designs there is several arches within the buildings that give the area a sophisticated appearance. The color gives the place a golden tone.
