Station North now is an area that blooms within itself, despite the economic depravity in some areas. Many galleries such as The Metro Gallery, The Crown and Red Emma 's display the growing crowd of millennials transforming the area into what it once was in it’s prime. Though a large part of Station North is budding and thriving, the city still hopes to transform the entire area into that of a true arts district. Station North has truly become the jewel of Baltimore, then and
Clarion Alley is a small street in San Francisco between Streets and 17th and 18th streets, connecting Mission and Valencia streets. It’s filled with various murals, created by the Clarion Alley Mural Project. Some of the murals clearly represent deep thoughts and ideas, while some are quite confusing.

Question#1 Some people might think that abandoned, “ghetto” sites have become useless, uninspiring, invaluable and should be demolished to create a building in which people could inhabit or use with a purpose. Although, that is not always the situation, some places could be transformed into a building that is advantageous to all. To support this, it clearly states in Source#2 that “Through government partnerships, public art can also transform dull or run-down public spaces and inspire the people who live and work there. We believe that art is educational and belongs to all people.

"Education and the Fine Arts." Education and the Fine Arts This article, “Why Schools are Cutting Fine Arts Education” is about why schools are cutting the arts. With the author being unknown, but we see that the author uses clear examples on why the arts is being cut over another curriculum. Throughout this article the author tends to use more pathos than anything with personal experiences to invoke the reader to do something over the budget cuts.

Read the following article and analyze the expert’s opinion that art can be a generator of “identity” for a community, and examine what is meant by the statement that “public art ‘humanizes’ cities.” Haley, C.

The first and most important circumstance for understanding my situation is regarding high school. I attend an art charter school (CASA) one county away from my home that has offered many opportunities but some important drawbacks. In terms of drawbacks, my high school experience is more difficult than others because I have to commute two hours per day to get to and from school. CASA is also a relatively new charter school with a small student body so it has not been as established as other high schools that have been around for nearly a century, student council is currently the only available club (though I am working with the principal to create a book club) and the school is still establishing its academic structure. While almost all English and humanities courses are live-taught, there is only one live taught science class (previously there were no labs for it, but I worked with the teacher to get a grant for biology labs!) and there isn't any advanced placement yet for mathematics or sciences.
The most significant architectural features of the building are: • It’s battered walls-thinner at the top than at the bottom to give an impression of solidarity and height. •The diamond panned windows incorporated without a style break. •the columns of reeds bunched together with palm leaf
A suburb’s Culture of Place is expressed in its architecture, streetscape, heritage architecture, noise, colour, street life, energy, vitality and lifestyle. Pre-urban renewal, Pyrmont’s culture of place was highly reflective around its low-income blue-collar workers and primary and secondary industries. As the blue-collar workers moved out of the inner-city areas with the decentralisation of industry, Pyrmont’s culture of place directly correlated with its devastating urban decay, such as abandoned and vandalised buildings, boarded-up shops, unused port and transport infrastructure, and overgrown, rubble strewn lots where factories had been bulldozed. Following Pyrmont’s urban renewal, the culture of place has been significantly transformed and is now characterized by its heritage and gentrified architecture, lively streetscape with cafes and restaurants, vibrant colours, and very relaxed and cultured lifestyle. The suburb is scattered with green, open public space, which makes Pyrmont a somewhat green suburb.
Artwork is all around the world, but is it really worth the resources and time for it? In the essay “Is Art a Waste of Time?” by Ryhs Southan he discusses the purpose of art and explains the group, Effective Altruism. The main argument is that Effective Altruism do not agree with using resources and time on artwork. Effective Altruism is against artwork the resources, and time it uses up that do not contribute to the poor.
It contested the professions and the way it was taught. It turned away from conventional architecture and proposed more adaptive architecture that would accommodate the emergent needs of its users through a rebellious style in an age heavily influenced by pop- culture and Dadaism. It redefined architecture and embraced a criteria o perishable yet indefinite, multifunctional space that was applied to new city models. It emphasized a vital support to culturally changing mechanisms of the city and not simply functional organization of space. The radical ideas experimented with spatial, creative, political and consumer freedom that surfaced in the 1960’s.
SPATIALITY The Mall becomes a ‘utopia’ where time and space evaporate (Goss 1993) and creating the civic miracle of heightened safety, excessive cleanliness as well as a well-mannered populace, a process similar to Malcolm Voyce’s (2007) idea of ‘spatial purification’. The aesthetically laid sparkling Italian marble floor leaves a sense of slight consciousness with regard to the clinical and pristine nature of the surroundings. Perhaps, the wafting music of the grand piano (blocked from view by a crowd of onlookers surrounding the pianist) is meant to work as an antidote for the induced anxiety. The material and non-material presence of the mall forms its spatial representation and the conjured “image” plays a crucial role in determining the intended audience.
Introduction Visual and performing arts tend to act as separate entities within the field of education; considerably isolated from the majority of academia, these sectors are often considered to be secondary or elective options after completing primary education. The arts are an essential part of a well-rounded education, however, when an institute begins a budgeting process, the arts are rarely considered a top priority. For example, during periods of recession many public schools within the United Stated were forced to cut visual, performing and musical arts programs, despite studies that proved the exposure to the arts to be beneficial for students both academically and in extracurricular activities. Learning in an art-infused environment
