Text of the page (random words):
a by japanese artist katsushika hokusai before painting a series of the atlantic ocean during the summer of 1869 9 vincent van gogh shows influences inspired by jean francois millet delacroix and the japanese prints he had in his collection 10 in 1889 van gogh created 20 painted copies inspired by millet black and white prints he enlarged the compositions of the prints and then painted them in colour according to his own imagination vincent wrote in his letters that he had set out to translate them into another language he said that it was not simply copying if a performer plays some beethoven he ll add his personal interpretation to it it isn t a hard and fast rule that only the composer plays his own compositions 11 more examples can be found on copies by vincent van gogh claude monet a collector of japanese prints created several works inspired by these such as the garden at sainte adresse 1867 inspired by fuji from the platform of sasayedo by katsushika hokusai the water lily pond series under mannen bridge at fukagawa 1830 1831 by hokusai or la japonaise 1876 likely inspired by kitagawa tsukimaro geisha a pair of hanging scroll paintings 1820 1829 12 13 14 first half of the 20th century edit in the early twentieth century pablo picasso and georges braque appropriated objects from a non art context into their work in 1912 picasso pasted a piece of oil cloth onto the canvas 15 subsequent compositions such as guitar newspaper glass and bottle 1913 in which picasso used newspaper clippings to create forms is early collage that became categorized as part of synthetic cubism the two artists incorporated aspects of the real world into their canvases opening up discussion of signification and artistic representation marcel duchamp in 1915 introduced the concept of the readymade in which industrially produced utilitarian objects achieve the status of art merely through the process of selection and presentation 16 duchamp explored this notion as early as 1913 when he mounted a stool with a bicycle wheel and again in 1915 when he purchased a snow shovel and inscribed it in advance of the broken arm marcel duchamp 17 18 in 1917 duchamp organized the submission of a readymade into the society of independent artists exhibition under the pseudonym r mutt 19 entitled fountain it consisted of a porcelain urinal that was propped atop a pedestal and
