JOURNAL 19/04/2013


At first as always, Paqui has said: -As always many people are late.

Then we have commented that our blog has 300034 visits and Laura B. is going to make a celebration post about it.

Then Paqui has explained how to do our project about the painting and she has said that we don’t have to copy because if we do it, she will discover us. She has also given to us some links for look our information about our project.

Javi has said that he doesn’t want his painting, but I’m really happy with my portrait. Juan has said that he want to do an etching of Goya.

Paqui was a little angry because some students didn't whach the PowerPoint presentations. She has also said that Monica’s project is very good and she will have 9 or maybe 10 points.

Paqui has though in a celebration: she is going to go to Madrid with the students of 2ºBach. to visit some museums and she is thinking of including us in this trip. The trrip would be the 28th of May. In the morning we will go to visit “El Prado”, then we will go to “El Retiro” to hace lunch and in the afternoon we will go to visit some interesting monuments of the city. This trip is going to be very cheap, maybe it is not more than 10€ if the bus is full.

Today in class we have studied architecture, we have seen a little about architecture of the 19th century.

First, we have seen the term historicism; it is based on repeating pats styles (especially from middle ages).

Santa Maria de Covadonga

NEO-GOTHIC: 
Barcelona's Cathedral

Houses of Parliament

NEO-MUDÉJAR:

Bullfighting Arena of las Ventas

NEO-BAROQUE:

Iron and steel architecture: The new materials and the new ways of producing them spread their use. The new necessities of industry and cities created a boom of construction of infrastructures and facilities for transport and communications.

Crystal palace of London-Joseph Paxton



During this period the skyscrapers of USA started being built.

Home insurance building-William Le Baron Jenney

ART-NOUVEAU:

This style appeared in Europe at the end of the 19th century. This new style broke up with the predominant historicist currents. It drew inspiration from nature: curved lines, organic motifs, exuberant decoration. The work of art was understood as a whole, including all arts and crafts.

The most important centres of this style were Brussels, Paris and Barcelona.

Main architecs:

HECTOR GUIMARD:
Paris:
Metro station

Hotel Guimard
VICTOR HORTA:
Brussels:
Hotel Tassel

LLUIS DOMÉNECH MONTANER:
Spain:

GAUDÍ: he was the most important representative of Modernism. He was very influenced by Gothic art and oriental styles. He drew inspiration from different natural landscapes and found original solutions for the buildings he designed: hyperboloid vaults, helicoidal columns, trencadís. Many of his works were commissioned by the Güell family.
Spain:
Episcopal Palace, Astorga
Capricho, Comillas
Park Güell
Sagrada Familia (Holly Family)

    - Paqui has became a little angry...
    - on the 28th of May.
    - the Prado museum
    - lesson not class.
    - Middle Ages in capital letters.

    Hello Pilar!
    Great journal! IS very COMPLETE. I like it a lot. You include a lot of photos and I like this,because the photos of his Unit are about art and are fantastics.
    The most thing that I like of this day, was when Paqui said us that on 28th of this month we will go to a trip to Madrid, to visit museums and to spend the day there. It was a GREAT new.
    Bye.
