Walk through of the Lyonel Feininger exhibition at the Museum of Beaux Art

A video walk through of the Lyonel Feininger Exhibition at the Museum of Beaux Arts. DISCLAIMER. I do not Claim to be an Art History Expert, I am a visual artist who deeply understands art on a kinetic and intrinsic level. These works are written to help people better understand modern art, how to look at art, how art became to be the beast it is now and what art is. This is especially true when I am taking about art rather than writing about it, as video is a new media for me. Videos are often shot in one take with out prior preparation. thereby giving the audience my automatic reaction to the artist's work. Therefore mistakes can be made. I often know a period , a style or an image, although I may not know the exact date or it's exact place in history. Such is the case in this video where I make a few mistakes such as mixing up the influence of George Baroque, one of the recognized creates of Cubism with the Barques period a mistake made not only due to the similarities in names, but also due to the fact of the image's colors I am referring to which consist of muted Burgundies and Ochers, accentuated by a highlighted areas (14.42 mark). my brain also associates these aesthetics with the Barques period. I am also well aware Van Gogh was Expressionist (who were concerned with the reflection of light, color and the shape of form) not a Fauvist(which stood for WILD BEASTS due to the lack of use of perspective and formal rendering) my thought get lost as a sentence lingers while looking at other works. I am also more than a little nervous speaking about an artist I am seeing for the first time. The Video created was created to give the viewer an an over all IDEA of this ARTIST'S LEGACY and how that legacy sat in the space of history. That being said...
