i would say that THE major characteristic is the study of light effects; that’s why they did several different takes of the same scene but at different times of day, also why they often (but not always) painted out of doors. also the idea that, instead of mixing colors on the palette, you put pure color next to each other on the canvas and the EYE mixes the color when you look at it. remember there are different kinds of impressionists tho, this would mainly describe those in the vein of Monet.

Okay i was wondering what do they use for paintings like modern day art what do they use to draw on it?. for instance its not the oil am looking for its the fabric and where could you get that at? o and another thing what do they use for modern day art like for the metal that comes in pieces what type of metal is that and where can i find it thanks!

Umm….canvas? At least I think that’s what you mean by the "fabric" artists paint on. You can get canvas at any art or craft store. As for the metal that comes in pieces, I have no idea what you’re referring to. I know of artists that cut pieces from copper sheets and integrate i into their work, but I’m not sure if that’s what you’re looking for.

It’s one of the finest collections of modern art anywhere in the world, but you won’t find it in New York or Paris.

Dozens of works by the likes of Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol and Jackson Pollock — together valued at roughly $3 billion — are locked in a basement in Tehran.

Only a handful of westerners have had an up-close look at the underground archives in Tehran’s Museum of Contemporary Art. ABC News was granted exclusive access inside the vault that holds a priceless collection Iranian authorities choose to keep locked away.

What was revealed was astonishing: a series of paintings by Picasso; a wall’s worth of pop art by Roy Lichtenstein; Warhol portraits of Jackie Onassis, Mick Jagger and Marilyn Monroe; a Diego Rivera self portrait; and a painting many consider to be the best Jackson Pollock outside of North America.

The collection was supposed to be a gift to the Iranian people. It was assembled by the Shah of Iran and his wife using public funds during the oil boom of the 1970s. Tehran’s Museum of Contemporary Art was inaugurated in 1977, designed to be one of the world’s landmark modern art institutions, with an international collection worthy of that ambition.

But just months later came the Islamic Revolution. The Shah was deposed, Ayatollah Khomeinei was became the country’s leader, and in the Revolutionary, anti-American climate the museum’s western art was banished to the basement.

Why aren’t the pieces shown to the public? The reasons are a mix of ideology and practicality.

The collection is huge and the museum small. Museum director Dr. Habibollah Sadeghi, himself a painter appointed by conservative President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, says there is no space to properly put the works on display.

Others question whether the museum could properly protect the valuable pieces from theft or damage were they displayed openly.

Conservative Muslim ideology — a powerful governing force in Iran — has played a similarly forceful role in keeping the pieces underground. Aside from the anti-Western overtones of Revolutionary Iran many of the pieces are considered too racy for a conservative Muslim society. When some of the collection briefly went on display in 2005 Andre Derain’s “Golden Age,” a 1905 painting of female nudes, was notably absent. Also hidden was the centerpiece of a Frances Bacon painting triptych. The center panel could be taken as homoerotic, showing two naked men asleep in bed.

There are plans to display the collection permanently once museum space is expanded, Sadeghi said. If those plans materialize — full-time public access to view the pieces — it would fulfill the dreams of art lovers worldwide. “In two or three years we can improve the museum and have a permanent exhibition,” said Sadeghi, adding that the museum is hoping to buy more Western works in the coming years to fill out the collection.

Check out work by Monet.
Mostly they are landscapes, not using black. They are done with short strokes of paint of complementary colors. The paintings try to describe the atmospheric effects and not as much as the objects that are on the canvas. Sisley and Turner are good examples also.

None of the Christian retailers (Mardel’s, Lifeway) sell anything even remotely close to my taste – which is much more abstract – kind of like graffiti. Anyone know of anywhere or anyone that does a more modern style of Christian art? Please let me know.

I want to graduate college with two degrees. I want to major in Public Relations and in Fine Arts. Now, what colleges can i go to that can offer this? Please someone help. By the way,i want to study dance in fine arts. Now please someone point me in the right direction.

Honestly, the double major you want will be useless. Communication degrees are a dime a dozen and a fine arts degree will allow you to be a dance teacher. Often time majors and minors should compliment one another…in your case it will only be a ton more work and take a very long time to graduate. I suggest choosing a major in Communications (although you should re-think this) and a minor in a related subject (business, public relations, etc.) and taking dance classes in your spare time.
