A Video Review

1. The key concepts that I have learned from watching these films are (1) "The Lowdown or Lowbrow: West Coast Pop Art"; the key concepts are esoteric art which is a movement from Finland in which art is expressed though the artist's individuality. The key concept in the film "Displaying modern Art: The Tate Approach" is abstractions which is a depiction of things that represent the earth. In "Bones of Contention: Native American Archaeology" is anthropology which is the study of culture and things that represent a specific region on earth. Lastly, the key concept for "George Eastman House: Perfect Picture" is Daguerreotype which is a type of machine that makes the process of photographs.

2. The films do relate to the Art Exhibition Project because in the film, it shows and explains the history of the art museums and exhibitions and their themes. Just like the film, our project is to view an art exhibition and to give a detailed background of the exhibit as well as the place where it's being held.

3. Watching the films was very informative and gave me ideas of how to present my curation project. They do add depth to the art concepts in preparation for my project. Also, the film has brought ideas for me to be more detailed about specific art works.
