It's History of Modern Art. I hate that class >A>;

But I'll try XD

what? but art classes are so educational<3

@chocobo: Yeah, it seems really fun, at least in the pictures, but I guess it could become a bit confusing xD.

@Ultima: Well, hopefully it won't be too bad then ^^;.

i have only been to one, it is crowded but not bad~

also, i miss this ;x; it is good to have users who will actually post

I normally lurk because most of the time when I'm online there's no one else around ^^;. I always thought that the site simply became active after midnight or so.

nope, this last two or so months it's gone dead, oldies are not posting until newbies flock and newbies dont last even a day because noone is posting so they never flock

Uh no. The history of modern art does suck.
I dunno if Ultima is starting with the impressionist or Gaughin but modern art does stuck.

XD is there so much dif between highschool and collage?

@choco: Well, from what I've understood there's an event coming up (I hope this is indeed still the case) so that should make the site a lot more active :3. I'm sad to hear that newbies don't post too often T.T.

@Poggio: I normally like art, though I don't know too much about modern art ^^;... except that there are some pieces of modern art that I would not call art...

Yes.
The college courses it is more selective and teachers can choose to omit part of their lessons because they make the test. So if you don't cover it, oh well. The teacher also really makes the class. For example I hated my modern art teacher and she had an accent so it was really hard to gather everything she said. Luckily for me I memorized a lot of what was going to be on the test so I could easily do the slides and managed to make a c. But also unlike highschool, one Essay could make or break you. And if the teacher only assigns say two essays and a test, you fail two you fail the class.

<3 I can tell you that the staff is working their balls off to make this event happen.

....oh.... ok that is a big difference


i hear it will be good~

Alright ladies and Gents I am off to work ciao ciao.

have a great day poggers<3 you and ultima both actually

@Poggio: I can't wait to see the event then, if they're working this much on it it's surely going to be incredible :D!

A failed test/exam could never break anyone's grades here no matter if it's high school, college, etc.

Normally, besides the occasional test/pop quiz/exam, the teachers make sure to question a few students about subjects orally and grade them on their answers each day or every few days, then there are also the projects some of the teachers ask students to do and prezent for more grades.

The teachers here can't really decide what to teach and what not to teach, they're required to teach the entire lesson plan so they can rush things a few times or, if they believe they're really behind, ask teachers from other disciplines to let them come over and hold their lesson instead, if not ask the students to stay a little longer.

The only time where failing one single exam can break you would be during the Baccalaureat period(s), if you fail one you fail the entire thing and have to retake it... The same is somewhat true in University as well, but you can just retake the exams and they won't hold you back a year (though I'm not sure if they'll pass someone who failed most of their exams at the second go as well ^^;).

EDIT:

Bye Poggio, have a good day :).

Nah. We're past that. Now we are on Malevich and constructivism which is basically just squares of solid color. X.x

Amd i hate history and memorizing names and dates of any kind.

the what period?

History was one of my favorite classes in high school xD. I just found it interesting :3.

I din't like geography too much though, the names of some mountain peaks and some of the numbers were really annoying to me >.<, at least with history the dates were in a certain order >.>...

Constructivism and Suprematism. About 1915-23. I dont get it and i hate it X.x

*dies* be back in an hour if anyone is still here then

Bai bai choco. I might be here o3o

@Ultima: Well, I just googled both and while I can see why you'd find Constructivism borinG, Suprematism does seem to be a little interesting. I still prefer modern abstract art to it though xD.

@choco: I hope to see you again in an hour then :3.

Noooo I love classical stuff XDD Venuses and still lifes and landscapes and pretty shading and soft colors. Hehe, I hate modern abstracty stuff. But thats just me :s-sweat:

I also enjoy classical art a lot, and the baroque and gothic movements/styles are absolutely stunning as far as I'm concerned :D.

I also quite like certain anime/manga styles (not all, but quite a few).

-nod- I also love manga art. I love Toboso Yana and love love love Amano Yoshitaka (not manga but still).

I fear I don't normally manage to remember the name of the artists/mangakas, but I do like the art in Ao no Exorcist/Blue Exorcist, D.Gray-Man, Black Butler and a few others that I can't remember right now because I haven't read any mangas or watched any animes for a few good months ^^; >.<.

Toboso Yana is Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler =3

Thank you for the information :D. In any case, some of the art is just simply amazing, not to mention the character designs, most of them are beautiful and the level of detail in some of the backgrounds is stunning :D.

Sorry I haven't been on qwq ive been playing pokemon

First off constructivism was actually kinda cool. Especially since it mimicked the futurist work in some what 3d form. You should look up Tatlin I liked his stuff. Its when you get to the Bahus that it goes loopy.


Also it kinda can. For example if your teacher has a point system and lets say you scored low on a set of point it averages into your grade.

JEALOUUSSSSSSS :s-yell: How is it?

Also, I have a strong desire to draw that avi >>;

Doooeeett, Ultimas art is sexy.

We JUST learned about those two in class today XD

RANT UNDER SPOILER. WHOA. GASP. ULTI RANTING??

Haha, I've been drawing avi's a lot. Mostly my own. But I just drew Asami's last avatar and wanted to draw yours but couldn't come up with a good pose and got frustrated :s-twitch:

;3; ulti has been drawing? if i briiiiiiiibed them could i get art?

Perhaaaaaaps~~ XD

I would have done your avi too but ... It's so complicated 0we;

this avi is blek anyway X''D i actually had something else in mind though i can make an avi of it and it's pretty open for personalization, i can also offer a stock account that has amazing poses

Oh! You mean like an OC? I'll draw anything, really. I just assumed you meant an avatar ^^;

XD oh ultima, that is why I mostly hate Abstract art. Its really not the technique its the thought. And a lot of it is really hipster bs that was bs before the term hipster was invented. I mean understand it in regards of experimentation with art and its mediums. I mean never before people like Picasso did artist do collages and call them art. I fucking loathed Warhol but I respect his processes. The same with Rothko and a few other artist you will encounter but I guess I have come to respect them in the same way I respect Hitler even if I hate them. The ideas are brilliant the execution not so much.

@choco: Just got your PM, and -AHEM- I don't think I can draw it ... quite like that XDD But I might give it a go. Did you ... want any clothes on him? >w>;;

@Poggio: I don't mind Picasso and cubism. Because if you squint, or look hard, there is a subject in all the angles and shapes. But if it's just a black square on a white square canvas (Malevich), it's just ... what? >w>;
