Tim-Jenison-s-efforts-to-duplicate-the-painting-techniques-of-Dutch-master-Johannes-Vermeer-Article-Writing-Assignment-Homework-Help

Tim’s Vermeer (2013) is a documentary film about Tim Jenison’s efforts to duplicate the painting techniques of the seventeenth-century Dutch master Johannes Vermeer. While Art Historians traditionally accept that Vermeer used an optic device called a camera obscura; Jenison proposes the artist was further aided by the use of mirrors. He locates this proposal in Vermeer’s unique style incorporating bright colors, expensive pigments and a meticulous study of the ever-changing effects of light.

For this assignment, write a one-and-a-half- to two-page (1.5-2) essay response to the film. Responses may be based in personal opinion, but should address some combination of the following questions. What makes someone an “artist”? Do you feel Tim Jenison fits this definition? Do we value art more or less if the maker uses a technological device? Do you feel that the use of optic devices is cheating? What did Tim Jenison’s experiment demonstrate? Based upon your own experience of trying to draw in line versus color, do you respect Tim’s experiment more or less?

Your response must be typed – no hand-written work will be accepted – Times New Roman, 12-pt font, double-spaced.
