Russes Ballet
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page paper which discusses how the Russes Ballet influenced the
society of the times. During the first decade of the 1900s fashion for women was
incredibly conservative, leaving almost nothing on the human body showing. With the
Russes Ballet came very risqué costumes that flowed with the body, and costumes that
often revealed a great deal of the body, if not complete nudity occasionally. The paper
discusses the society of the time, the fashions of the time, and the changes that were soon
seen in the fashion industry due to the revealing nature of the costumes seen in the Russes
Ballet. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Salvador Dali: Christian Themes.
[ send me this paper ]
( 10 pp) in 1941, Dalí moved beyond his esoteric,
surrealist style in order to make a more universal
artistic statement. His interest shifted from
personal obsessions to universal themes, and he
became fascinated by religion and modern science .
Dalí summarized this shift by saying that he
intended "to become classic," for, "to be a
Surealist forever is like spending your life
painting nothing but eyes and noses." Dalí looked
back to Classical and Renaissance art for
inspiration, while looking forward to the
scientific discoveries emerging around him in the
1950s. He desired to be the spokesman for the
atomic age, to unite the discoveries of modern
science with religion and mysticism.

Sandro Botticelli
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) The most humanistic of the Renaissance
painters, Botticelli was at first apprenticed to
a goldsmith; whether working in this sensuous
metal influenced him we can not be sure, but we
can easily say that Botticelli was one of the
greatest artists of the Quatrocentro. The new
secular spirit of the time affirmed individual
value in numerous ways - portraiture came forward
after centuries of neglect. Donors stepped forward
confidently and aggressively as patrons of the
arts, artist sponsors, and subjects. Secondly,
privately commissioned works were made for
aesthetic as well a religious purposes, and
expressed the mythological subjects favored by the
humanists, who enjoyed their history as well as
their nudity and mild eroticism.
Bibliography lists 6 sources.
