Bart Simpson

Bart Simpson is a fictional main character in the animated television series The Simpsons. At ten years old, Bart is the eldest child and only son of Homer and Marge, and the brother of Lisa and Maggie. Bart's character traits insubordination and lack of respect.

His rebellious vein makes him a disruptive pupil at the primary school in Springfield and he is proud that his achievements fall short of expectations (Underachiever and proud of it). He is in constant conflict with his teacher, Edna Krabappel, Principal Skinner, and occasionally with caretaker Willie. Presumably his school problems stem from the fact that he is not careful, and, therefore, that he would be stupid but he is clever. He is opposite character of his sister whose name is Lisa. She is hardworker and careful. Bart gets into endless trouble and can be sadistic, shallow and selfish, he is sometimes very decent and unselfish. For example, Principal Skinner his job recover, even if doing so might not remain friends. In shortly , Bart always shows his good temperaments , but he is a troublemaker. He is represent lazy and naugthy family kid. Audiences love Bart character because some people assimilate to himself with Bart and the others love Bart's intelligence. On the other hand , audiences love their good temperaments.

Snoopy (Bir yaşama uzmanı.)

Snoopy is a character who is older than my mother.First of all snoopy started as a weekly comic book(Peanuts).Creator of this comic book is Charles M. Schus who is past away in Feburary 12 2000.Peanut eun in over 2.600 newspapers with a readership of 355 million in 72 country.
To be honest snoop and charly brown is one person, Charlie Bown is a kid that has lack of self-confidence and unsuccesful most of the things that he did, like baseball he can't achive even one score another example is football when he plays football he even cant hit the ball.On the other hand Snoopy is a life expert and mostly he's shrug off situations and live he's own world.Snoopy is had a different point of view than Charlie Brown charly born look things more positively or at least he try to see positive ways of the situations.But Snoopy is thinking more like out of the box and this makes him more intresting.He sleeps over his doghouse, relationship with Snoopy and his doghouse is very intresting he uses his house like preaty much anaytihng, like a jet or like a bed or like a spaceship.
Drawings style of the snoopy is something intresting too there is no perpective in the drawing.Drawings are simple and understandable.On the scene there are always 3-4 object not much than that, and characters always change roles or in other words they shifting roles.
Another intrest point for me in the Snoopy is that we can't see adult characters face and voice.
Lastly Snoopy is a chracter that says to me: ''Live your life with your own way, and forget about the rest.''.

Fred Flintstone

Design Concepts and Contemporary Art

Assignment III

Fred Flintstone - The Flintstones

Frederic Joseph as known as Fred Flintstone is the main character of the Flintstones. He is the husband of Wilma Flintstone, the father of Pebbles Flintstone and the owner of a dinosaur who barks like a dog called Dino. Fred's best friends and neighbors are Barney and Betty Rubble couple. Barney and Betty Rubble's son Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles are best friends in the Flintstones.

Fred lives in the prehistoric town of Bedrock. His house is a cave just as ancient time people but he uses all the opportunities of the modern times like automobile, telephone. There are some subtle humors about the uses of technology. Fred uses the nose of elephant for taking a shower. 

Fred has the talent of playing bowling, pool, poker and golf. He has also singing skill. Fred's one and only bad habit is gambling. His most well-known catchphrase is "Yabba dabba doo"  and this catchphrase has it's own dancing figure. You can also remember Fred screaming "WILMA" standing at the door.

If we evaluate the clothes that Fred wears we can see the effects of primitive times. Fred does not wear shoes. His dress, which is orange and black dotted is ragged but you can see that he wears tie just like a modern era people.

At first sight, you will think Fred is an arrogant, rude, aggressive, loud mouthed and scheming but he is also a good husband and a father. His aim is to make his family pleased.  You might think that he is anti-social but he has his own way to get along with the people.

Sometimes they both lose, usually when Jerry's last trap potentially backfires on him after it affects Tom or when Jerry over looks something at the end of the cartoon. sometimes they both end up being friends. Tom changes his love interest in many times. The first love interest is Toots who appears in "Puss n' Toots", and calls him. We see that only in a few catoons Tom speaks.

"RESMİN DERİSİNİ YÜZEN” RESSAM
AHMET ORAN RAMPA’DA

“Ahmet Oran, sanatını yalnızca resmetmeyle ilgili eylemlere indirgemeyi öngören tutumuyla süreçsel resim sanatının başlıca temsilcilerinin arasında kendisine özgü bir konuma sahiptir.”
Günther Oberhollenzer, Küratör, Essl Müzesi, Viyana

Rampa, 6 Kasım – 18 Aralık 2010 tarihleri arasında Ahmet Oran sergisine ev sahipliği yapıyor.

1957 yılında Çanakkale’de doğan Oran, 1980’de İstanbul Devlet Güzel Sanatlar Akademisi’nden mezun oldu. Sonrasında çalışmalarına Viyana Tatbiki Sanatlar Yüksek Okulu’nda devam eden Oran, Prof. Unger ve Prof. Frohner’in atölyelerinde öğrenim gördü. Viyana ve İstanbul’da yaşayan sanatçı 1980’lerin ortasından itibaren ağırlıklı olarak Avusturya’da olmak üzere 30’u aşkın kişisel sergi açtı; 25 karma sergide eserleri yer aldı.

Ahmet Oran, monokrom renk tabakalarını siyah zeminin üzerine birbirinin peşi sıra taşıyor, tuvali katman katman maviyle, kırmızıyla, sarıyla veya griyle kaplıyor. Kimi zaman monokrom kalan, kimi zaman da yüzeyde çok renkli bir örgü meydana getiren son katman da tuvale taşınıp işlendikten sonra sanatçı, kendisinin de ifade ettiği gibi, “resmi açmaya” başlıyor. Aynı anda birden fazla tuval üzerinde resim yapan Oran, farklı spatüllerle ve çeşitli büyüklükteki ahşap parçalarıyla çalışan bir sanatçı. Bu ahşap parçalarıyla tuvalin kabuğunu soymak suretiyle resimde geniş bantlar meydana getiriyor. Açığa çıkan renkler farklı yoğunluklarda, karışımlarda ve yapılarda görünür hale geliyor.

Oran, nesnel olana gönderme yapmayan soyut resimler üretiyor. Resmi en temel unsurlarına, yani renge ve biçime indirgiyor. Sanatçı, renk katmanlarının tek tek açığa çıkartılması sırasında rölyefi andıran kompozisyonlar meydana getiriyor. Yakından, özellikle de yandan incelediğinde tabloların üçboyutlu, son derece plastik bir etkisi olan yüzeylere sahip olmasını sağlıyor.

Bilgisayarda tasarımlar hazırlayan sanatçı resimlerinin ön çizimlerini yapıyor. Oran, resimlerinin temel konsepti için bilgisayar tasarımları kullandığı ve her bir resmin üretim sürecini önceden enine boyuna düşündüğü halde sanatçının eserleri katı bir kompozisyon ya da donuk bir uygulama izlenimi uyandırmıyor.

Renk; çalışmalarını son yıllarda İstanbul’da sürdüren Oran’ın yapıtlarında giderek daha belirleyici bir rol oynuyor. Istanbul’un sesi, melodisi ve gürültüsü sanki resimlerine yansıyor. Oran’ın önceki dönem eserlerindeki sükunet ve uysallık, bu sergide yerini renkli bir şenliğe bırakıyor. 20’yi aşkın tuvale yer veren bu sergi, aynı zamanda sanatçının 5 yıl aradan sonra İstanbul’da açacağı ilk kişisel sergisi olma özelliğini de taşıyor.

Bu basın bülteni Günther Oberhollenzer’in “Açığa Çıkan Renk Bölgeleri ve Çizimli Resim Sanatı’” metninden yararlanılarak hazırlanmıştır.

Sergi: 6 Kasım – 18 Aralık 2010
Salı – Cumartesi 11.00 – 19.00
