Where are the speakers?
M: I see you and your friends have been decorating the dormitory lounge.
W: The walls look so stark and dreary, we decided to cover them with prints and posters.
M: I like this one, and you buy it on campus?
W: No, I bought it at the museum of modern art in New York city. The art history department recently sponsored a special museum tour there.
M: Is this a reproduction of something in the museum collection?
W: Yes. It’s a print of a painting by George O’keffe called "lake George window"
M: It looks more like a photograph. The details are so accurate and realistic.
W: I thought the same thing when I first saw the painting hanging in the museum. But the art history teacher pointed out how the painting is in fact very stylized.
M: What do you nean?
W: First, by choosing a front view of the window, O’keffe was able to present a symmetrical image and eliminate any hint of three dimensionality.
M: It does look almost flat. The open shutters seem to have no depth at all.
W: To emphasize that two dimensional look, O’keffe also eliminated details of texture. The shutters, for example.
M: Yes, their surface looks as flat even as the glass of the window pane.
W: So even though she created a realistic painting of a window, O’keffe stylized and simplified the shapes to resemble an abstract design.
M: It sounds as though you learned a lot on the trip. Is the art history department planning another museum tour?
W: Yes, the next one is a special exhibit of European painters at the museum of fine art in Boston. I think I will sign up for that one. Maybe I will even come back with a print to decorate the bare walls of my dormitory lounge.
