The  video “ In the power to look “ showed three intellectual standards – clarity, breadth and depth.The video includes “American gothic” by grand wood ;Yoruba crown from Nigeria;” Paris street rainy day “ by gustave caillebotte and” untitled#92”by Cindy Sherman.
In “Yoruba crown” from Nigeria , we can see how author has describe crown as spiritual essence of a Yoruba ruler. The faces outlined in the crown with beads establish a link to past kings who serve as influential ancestors to the present one, beaded veil protects the king and the birds representing women. The detail in the video is clear making it simple and easy to understand. Likewise the “Paris street rainy day “represent different perspective. It  shows number of individual with different social status .The video reflect the artist’s great skillfulness and the conceptual innovation as well. The artist has use camera Lucida to create this best known painting in 1877.It allow us to see real time back then and connect us through an art.
As depth comes from how much meaning individual find in subject or character,
“the untitled film still#92 “by Cindy Sherman Successfully detailed the focus on female social role-playing and feminism.In the photograph Kneeling on the ground and fearfully looking away from the camera , Sherman has used the technique of cropping tight.Cropping tight the subject  eliminates the background noise ensuring the subject gets the viewer’s solid  attention. Hence the photograph looks like viewer is looking down of female subject from a position of power.
The standard of intellectual quality is significant in all aspect.As it focuses on deep understanding , skills and ideas , it changes the way we think and see differently.

The three categories what makes up good art is accuracy,depth and significance. The video I liked watching was “why Art Matters” because it explains how art is amazing and how it expresses  everything. The video “Why Art Matters’ ‘ relates to the categories because how art is being visualized and critiqued. For instance when art is being visualized people have different prescriptions on how they see a painting or drawing but it is significant in its own way and people realize how art can make you feel good by just observing and thinking. In addition the way people critiques painting or drawing is how it looks if it has a lot of details and is it realistic enough where people will me amazed.The technique the presenters use significance because the painter is really amazing on how they think when they are painting or drawing and imagine how the objects are being visualized with minds. It relates to the reading because the paintings have a history ans culture that people are amazed to see. 

In the video TED-Ed, “How art can help you analyze,” in Smart history, December 20, 2015, accessed June 22, 2020, https://smarthistory.org/how-art-can-help-you-analyze/, it tells us how we can use the ability to analyze to see and to understand more than what the eye allows us to perceive. It is a normal tendency for people to think that a picture is worth a thousand words, when describing images and/or works of art. This is because, when we first see a picture/artwork, we first notice the image as a whole. However, if we pay attention to the surroundings in detail, we can find new details or pieces of information. With that, a question is posed, and we start to ask ourselves why the artist painted the painting in this way and what they are trying to explain to us. For example, the police officers go to a crime scene, they are analyzing/investigating it. We can consider the crime scene as a sort of “art”. I state this because they are looking for clues and details to find information about the culprit and/or victim. With this information, they can interpret what is going on or what happened. With this being said, sometimes explaining the art doesn’t do it any justice. Sometimes people need to look at it themselves and analyze the whole and then break the art piece down to understand it better. We can use this idea in our personal life since we always look and worry about the bigger picture first with our daily life activity instead of analyzing the small parts first to get to the ending of a project.

Logic, clarity, precision .These are the three standards that the Why Art Matters video shows, in the video they clearly indicate examples of art and how images communicate ideas, art being a way of expressing a message.
I think the narrator also uses logic to imply that art is not only found in exclusive places such as museums but rather is in our day to day, in the neighborhood in which we live, the buildings that surround us and our environment usually.
In the same way, another narrator highlights the precision of the definition of art and knowing how to notice it is the most important thing to appreciate and understand the message.

In summary, the video says that art is everywhere, you need precision to notice it but also time to stop and look at the details of what you are seeing, recognize the artist’s work and understand the message that he transmits with his work.

Thanks to the article in the book, I was able to think about the video “How the art can help you analyze” from a different perspective. I learned how to better analyze given information and like in the case of art, take a deeper look beyond the obvious, analyze, and think about the rhetoric of the speech.

The three intellectual standards I would like to discuss are Significance, Logic, and Relevance. Questions bellow each of the categories in the book helped me out to better identify them.

The presenter Amy E. Herman in the video provided the ostensibly unimportant extent of art. Significance of the recording was in the illustration of the evidence, that art is not only seemingly visual pleasure, but can teach how to study affairs thoroughly, the detailed analysis generally, or formulation of the right questions. Specific examples of different kinds of occupations and the profit from learning how to analyze art were great ideas on how to bring near potential advantages of art to those, who don’t consider art as a way to improve personal skills.

The Logic, as the next intellectual standard was in the structure. The way how the content was put together, an example of the exploration of the art piece, and following examples of the situations when we can use gained patterns made complete sense. The natural flow from abstract thinking into practice was a logical process of the explanation and getting to the point.

Relevance is the last of the standards I would like to point out. The clear aim of understanding the main issue was flawless. All the examples were comprehensive and related to the topic.

All the noted aspects of analyzing art in the video were very important, helping to understand better the issue. It’s surely worth it to be aware of them.

Clarity, breadth and fairness are three intellectual standards showed in “how art help you analyze” clearly. And I will talk about it in details.

First, clarity. The analyze skills art teach us play much more important roles in some fields than we think. To prove this point, the producer lists doctors, nurses and enforcement agents and explain how art help them in their fields. Meanwhile, the producer depict a famous picture “Time Transfix” from Magritte to indicate us that we will confront many unknown in our work, just like this puzzling picture. What we need to do is solve these mysteries. Through those vivid examples, we can know that we get lots of beneficials from art, although sometimes we don’t realize it.

Second, breadth. “Art can enhance our perception and our ability to translate to others what we see.” That’s the topic sentence in this video. So the producer shows us several normal cases in our life. In some invetigations and emergencies, a police can describe the crime scene to colleague more comprehensively and accurately, which implies art enhance our ability to translate. As for treating the patient, the doctor will be more sensitively to detect the changes in patients. This ability is difficult to be learned in school but is easy to get from art.

Third, fairness. All the explanation the producer tells us is balanced, objective and free from bias. The example she provides are true without any exaggeration. The scenes of how nurse, doctors and enforcement agents apply the skills learn from art to their works are common in our real life.

In the video “why art matters (why look at art?)” by Dr. Steven Zucker and Dr. Beth Harris we can choose clarity, fairness and significant from the textbook English composition to describe the intellectual standards for quality. In the video, we see how people think about art.

By looking the video and analyzing the different opinions of the speakers we can understand that the video describes clearly about the art. Also, it is fair and significant because it gives details to every aspect relative to art and different views. The presenters use people who have experiences about thinking when they look at the art and are able to analyze the meaning of the images they see. The first speaker describes arts as images that communicate whit people and also say it is another way, we can see the world. The second person qualifies art as high vision and affirm that we can pay attention to our environment through the art and to emphasis her observation she gave example to the birds, newspapers and museums. The third speaker say that artists are everywhere, that mean it is not only in the museum we can find arts, they can be found also in the street, parks or our architectures, I think this opinion is fair for artists who do not have chance to present their creation in the museum, and the last speaker talks about how we can find details in the art if we do not have predetermination. That mean we should be patient and look carefully the art in order to analyze what information the artist want to give to people. That require to pay more attention to every detail of the art.

In the video, we find clarity, fairness and significance to describe the perception of the art by using some of the intellectual standards for quality.

The three categories of intellectual standard shown in the video why art matters are depth, significance, and relevance.  It reminds us the importance and impact art has on our society and how we also tend to forget how art surrounds us. We are able to recognize the significance of art when it is mentioned by the first speaker that we live in a visual world. When you roam around New York City structures in awe, you don’t necessarily think of there purpose you just know that that building has rooms where people sit and either work or do there daily routines. We don’t think about who made these structures or what materials are used. We just know its purpose and don’t realize that architecture is a form of art.  Art has an importance we all seem to take for granted without it we wouldn’t have four walls or the notion of what the luxury of an apartment is.

Through Depth we realize how a piece of artwork can have a deeper meaning and express a different array of emotions for the one observing the piece and the one who created it. Another speaker mentions how it’s all about seeing beyond the first impression a piece gives you. How when you stop and take a breath you may notice a detail or two that you may have not seen before. For example, when looking at an abstract piece one may find it meaningless scribbles compared to what a portrait of someone may convey to them. But if given a closer look or by really absorbing its features it may pose some interesting questions. Like what was the artist feeling when they created this or what was they trying to communicate to their audience.

As we sit back and think about the relevance of arts purpose. We notice how art shapes the world we created, how trains function, how blueprints are made, and how the art matters movement impacts how we communicate with each other. Art matters to the people because it allows us to evolve our way of thinking by producing perspectives and allowing everyone to have an opinion of it. By allowing everyone to communicate different points and come together to create discussion.

The video, “How Art Can Help You Analyze” , by Amy E. Herman talks about how an analysis on an art can strengthen our scrutinizing skill. The narrator tells us that we analyze an art through close studying of the art through our visual perception, observation, articulation of the observation, and logical reference to possibilities. It is in way, a practice to enhance our intellectual quality as well. It includes the intellectual qualities of logic, depth and significance.

The video started with logical explanation on how through good analysis of art can have a helpful insight into the professions of doctor, a seasoned officer and a nurse by giving an example of art “Time Transfixed” by Rene Magritte. This art poses many interesting questions about the significance of clock, the two candle stands without the candle, a mirror reflecting only the objects in front of it, a train coming out through the wall of chimney without displaying its origin and destination. Depending on the strength of this visual stimulus, viewers analyze it accordingly. Therefore, this video beautifully incorporated the art in explaining the logic behind art analysis positive effects in those professions.

Similarly, in any arguments without a reasonable idea to back it up, it will not attract much recognition. When making a statement, a profound understanding of the situation will be of great benefit. The cops studying a crime scene, collecting detail visual information from the scene can help them understand the situation and a doctor diagnosing a patient, considering the pertinent negatives can properly diagnose it.  These in-depth scenarios presented in video has complemented how through detail analysis skill acquired through art can make a huge difference.

Likewise, analyzing an artwork helps to understand the significance of each component on the piece. The sun shining on an artwork, time on clock, the train, the fireplace, mirror and candle stand are all there for a reason. If the cop finds a domino’s pizza box at a crime scene in a millionaire mansion, it should occur to them as a suspicious activity. They should link it with their investigation. Recognizing the importance of a relevant idea being presented in a situation can help look at the problem from a different perspective and help solve many problems.
