Black Lives matter

 Banksy supports Black Lives Matter with latest artwork | Banksy | The Guardian

This art was posted on Bansky's Instagram. It is used in a post that supports the Black Lives matter movement. I chose this because of its relevance right now. I like the details put into it. The Flag is vibrant and dominates most of the shot. The candles by the memorial is not lit but the candle that lights the flags is.

Romare Bearden's art is interesting. This is not the art I would usually like looking at, but it is unique.

In the show, The enemy and the world they create has a similar art style to this. Here is a couple of examples:

Richard Estes- Kimberly Durso

This is a painting of the Williamsburg Bridge made by Richard Estes in 1995. This painting caught my attention because it looks so realistic. It does not look like it was painted at all but it looks like a picture shot off of a professional camera. There is so much detail, Estes even included the graffiti and rust. It amazes me that he was able to paint from this angle and include all of the shadows, especially that the painting is not based on a photograph because the shadows must have been moving as he was painting.

Emily Dee "Jamming at the Savoy"

  Romare Bearden was an African-American artist and writer who depicted African American life. His early work focused on unity and cooperation within the African-American community. His use of the collage theme reemerged around the 1960s. I chose this piece titled "Jamming at the Savoy" because to me it is a very happy piece. The colors he used are bright and vibrant. I love music, and I enjoy how everyone looks happy playing their instruments.
