But maybe the worship of such dreck has less to do with the alleged skill and vision of the “artist” than the philosophies and cultural pretensions that lead critics to assure others that they are way to sophisticated to claim that “anybody can do” what, in fact, anybody can do. Conclusions: Overall trends indicated music therapists’ salaries tend to increase over time, regardless of region, population, setting, and age. Due to the way salary data were collected by AMTA and descriptively analyzed in the current study, the authors provide a number of caveats and advise against generalizations. Limitations of the study and suggestions for future inquiry are provided. de Duve, Thierry. Voici, 100 ans d’ art contemporain. Exh. cat. Ludion: Grand-Amsterdam, 2000. When Chris Ofili’s painting The Holy Virgin Mary (1996) was exhibited in New York in 1999, the city’s then-mayor, Rudolph Giuliani, took exception to the artist’s vision of a black Madonna with a bare breast moulded from elephant dung: The idea of having so-called works of art in which people are throwing elephant dung at a picture of the Virgin Mary is sick,” Giuliani said.

Among these, two studies were conducted in India with Indian classical music. Deshmukh et al. 78 studied 50 individuals diagnosed with major depressive disorder. Participants in the music group were made to listen to music with selected ragas while the control group received treatment with psychotropics. Depression scores improved with the music group comparable to the control group and these effects persisted beyond the treatment period. Four out of the 18 participants, included in the other Indian study by Rumball, 79 were diagnosed of depression and all four of them scored significantly lesser depression scores on the self-rated questionnaire both during and after the sessions. Major limitations of this study were lack of randomization and extremely small sample size. The sessions included a short quiet prayer (5-10 songs) for 1 h with discussion of the feeling” of the song; this pattern lacked a proper standardization. Brenson, Michael.

Some of the other oddities about the decoration of Hagia Sophia can be seen in the narthex where some of the motifs and the crosses don’t match. There are other places that have sloppy workmanship. This is strange – there are parts perfectly executed next to work that looks cruder. Recently, the Byzantine scholar, Natalia Teterianikov, has discovered that while Hagia Sophia was built, in 536-537 there was a period of global disruption caused by a major volcanic eruption that covered the earth with a veil of ash. Historians of the time, like Procopius, have reported it. Today it is called the Mystery Cloud of 536. One of the effects of the eruption was the reduction of light to only 4 hours a day. Global cooling also increased the drying of plaster, which had to laid in smaller patches. Taking a dangerous risk, some marble elements in the church might have been carved by lamplight. Mistakes would not have been visible to viewers on the ground, so they were overlooked until the darkness lifted and work was almost completed. Then it was too late to do anything about them.

The exterior edges show the wooden structure which underlies the quillwork. A variety of traditional design motifs including star patterns, circles, moose, flora, fauna, and waves cover the surface. The overall design is symmetrical. Colours are generally cool except for a few areas of earth tones. Forms: The repeated geometric forms are identical in size, shape, colour, and texture. The forms are dramatized by light which falls on them. Movement: The non-stable appearance of the forms, as if they were caught in a moment of incomplete action, creates tension.

Abstract Art uses a visual language of shape, form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world. The artist applied the paint fairly thinly (the canvas surface is evident in some places). She used very small brushes to create the fine detail. Painter. A German American, Hofmann was a leading Abstract Expressionist painter and was considered to be one of the greatest twentieth century teachers. He directed his own school in Munich and taught at both the University of California at Berkeley and his own school in New York. Hofmann’s talent was recognized in retrospectives at the Baltimore Museum of Art (1954), the Whitney Museum of Art (1957), and the Museum of Modern Art (1963). Halkin, Talya.

Examining how and why artists investigated the expressive capacities of line, color, and texture, Taking Shape highlights a number of abstract movements that developed in North Africa and West Asia, as well as the Arab diaspora. Across these regions, individual artists and artist collectives grappled with issues of authenticity, national and regional identity, and the decolonization of culture. Drawn from the collection of the Barjeel Art Foundation based in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, the exhibition features nearly 90 works by a diverse group of artists such as Etel Adnan, Shakir Hassan Al Said, Kamal Boullata, Huguette Caland, Ahmed Cherkaoui, Saloua Raouda Choucair, Rachid Koraïchi, Mohamed Melehi, and Hassan Sharif, among others. On view are works produced by artists from countries including Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, Qatar, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, and United Arab Emirates. Curated and organized by Suheyla Takesh, Curator at the Barjeel Art Foundation, and Lynn Gumpert, Director of the Grey Art Gallery at New York University, the exhibition will be on view from January 14 through April 4, 2020.
I wondered: Could our processing of music be so different, or so basic, that abilities relating to it remained accessible in people so limited in function? In 1978, little was known about music and brain function. Today, as a result of exponentially increasing research, particularly over the past five years, we can venture some initial answers to my question. Music has been shown to trigger the nucleus accumbens in the brain, and that structure is also associated with dopamine, the chemical the brain releases during eating and sex, so experts believe that music is biologically desired and rewarded. There was another study that used an fMRI machine to examine the activity of the nucleus accumbens while people listened to music. Researchers played 60 clips of novel songs to participants and then they asked how much money the participants would pay for the song. The more activity the music created in the nucleus accumbens, the more people were willing to spend. Another study, conducted by scientists from University of Helsinki (Finland), Aarhus University (Denmark) and University of Bari (Italy), has proven that love of music is determined by genetics and depends on the function of the neurotransmitter dopamine. It helps humans anticipate pleasure, remember it and strive for it despite discomfort. Scientists noted that, having listened to music, participants of their experiment experienced functional changes in their dopamine receptors, which improved their mood. The researchers noted that this is the first study that has shown that music affects the brain’s physical structure. In the third episode of our short introductions to leading Abstract Expressionist painters, the RA’s Artistic Director Tim Marlow looks at the work of Joan Mitchell. The visual outcome of an artistic movement, or an artist. For example, the style of Abstract Expressionism is manifest as large canvases with non figurative and often chaotic imagery and application. The mature style of Piet Mondrian is geometric, with a white background, a black grid formation and primary colours. In 1975 Davy Brown won a modern art scholarship from the Institute of Cultural Affairs in Chicago. This enabled Davy to travel extensively in the USA and Canada. He was also able to further develop his skills as a talented contemporary Scottish artist. Davis, Elliot Bostwick, Erica E. Hirshler, Carol Troyen, Karen E. Quinn, Janet L. Comey, and Ellen E.

Participants in this study were female and male adult residents of an Integrated Dual Diagnosis Treatment unit (IDDT) within a larger substance use disorder treatment program in the Great Lakes Region. Each participant had a primary diagnosis of substance use disorder and a secondary mental illness, unknown to the researchers unless the participant chose to share this information. Typical diagnoses were confirmed by the program staff as Affective Disorders (Depression, Bi-Polar Disorder) and Anxiety Disorders (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). In rare cases, residents were diagnosed with Personality Disorders, Schizophrenia, and Schizo-Affective Disorder. No noticeable symptoms of psychosis were noted by the researchers during music therapy sessions. All residents took psychotropic medications.
