Bull

In this option, Perspective on Art as a Global Human Activity that is a big challenge for me. I don't like essay very well, so I choose the hardest way to do the option.

At begin first term, I thought about what is a ancient culture life and every different culture use that. I found plants, birds, goat, bull, and fish. I research some old culture will painted animal on caves, potteries, or paintings.  





















Sketch

Finally, I choose four cultures where are like bulls, Altamira( Spain), Lascaux( French), Tawantinsuyu( Peru), Egypt, and Chinese then make four potteries to paint on bull

After research images of animals at some cultures, I found most cultures esteem cattle. It is virtually the same role at many culture. At few cultures are chosen to do this option of work. I use a way to do ceramic of bowls, because it is a part of dishes that it must be used by people to fill food. And eating clothing living in the conduct. Then, I chose four theme of cultures to do ceramic: Chinese, Egypt, Paleohistric Art, and Tawantinsuyu.

Altamira( Spain), Lascaux( French)- Paleohistric Art
Then, this is a cave at Spain and French, but it is fake by BBC NEWS. Because, they want to protect original painting in the cave. We do not know real mean in the cave which was painted at 10000B.C. But some people guessing it is a place for prey to make people peaceful, good hunt, full and warm.

Tawantinsuyu( Peru)- Nazca Line
Finally, South America has an old and mysterious huge graffiti that is very similar Landscape Art at Peru. Flying is only one way to look those paintings. All of research show this image is a dog, but it is a cattle for me. The image have a big penis and breast what those are important to show powerful and versatile cattle. After many hundred years, most south America are colonized by Spain. Pakara, Peru stile use cattle to protect them at eaves.
Egypt- Apis
Secondary, it is a mysterious Egypt. The culture is grown by Nile River that area have flood to fertile ground it help agriculture at Egypt. Most Egypt Gods are come from nature and animals. For example, Ennead or changing to animal forms. Aris is a bull from of God that is product and growing. The other one, Hathor is a woman who  is bring love, dance, and grow to this world.
Chinese- “Heavenly oxen”
Frist of all, Yangtze River and Yellow River are growing Chinese culture. This Image is come from midstream of Yellow River about 600A.D. In Tomb of Lou Rui has wall painting of strong bulls to flying sky. At that time, people use bull to walk that it is to help people west time for walking. Unite now, Chinese culture is construct from agriculture. Until now, a lots of farmers do not eat cattle that thank cattle to help farming.
