Kanopy Videos for Art 102

Kanopy Video - 18th-Century Reality and Decorative Rococo

18th-Century Reality and Decorative Rococo

The sensuality of Rococo art mirrors 18th-century upper-class lifestyle and sensibility. Explore the evocation of intimate hedonism in Watteau, Boucher, Fragonard, and other Rococo masters, specifically through their imagery of lovers, social life, and pastoral pleasure. Then, define Rococo style in its graceful curves and characteristic use of paint and color.

Kanopy Video - Leonardo and Michelangelo

Leonardo and Michelangelo

In the fascinating Great Artist series, we investigate some of the best artists in history - examining their influence, style and what made them unique. In this double package we examine two giants of the Renaissance period - Leonardo da Vinci, genius scientist, inventor, engineer and artist, and his contemporary and equal Michelangelo.

Kanopy Video - Giotto and Piero della Francesca

Giotto and Piero della Francesca

In this fascinating film, two vital instigators of the Renaissance are examined: Giotto, with his naturalistic and emotive treatment of medieval Christian iconography, whose popularity and commissions raised the status of artists forevermore, and Piero della Francesca, creator of calm, monumental and enigmatic images that paved the way for the likes Leonardo and Michelangelo.
