I chose this painting by Ivan Alexeevich Kudriashev, entitled Construction of a Rectilinear Motion as an example of Rectilinear art. The painting caught my eye because it so clearly represent an artwork created with straight edges, producing a sharp angular feeling. In addition, the placement of the shapes remind me of an object shooting across the sky, leaving a long vapor trail behind it, possibly because linear shapes and straight lines seem to depict fast motion.

Curvilinear
I chose to display the typeface “Art Nouveau Bistro” because, as mentioned in the reading, art nouveau style emphasized curvilinear shapes.
Naturalistic
This painting by Edinelson Ramirez, of the Basin Harbor represents naturalistic art, because its aim is to represent the true-to-life visual appearance of the world around us.
Idealistic
This is debatable, but I chose these action figures as art that represents the world as it should be . . . (at least for the people that are playing with these action figures) and they are an exaggerated version of what many might consider an ideal look for a man -- muscular, fit, wearing little underpants and a cape . . ;-D
Abstract
This painting, Midnight Jazz”, represent Abstract art. I was interested to read that abstracttion if a simplification of natural shapes to their essential basic character. I am sure I’ve referred to many “non-objective” designs as abstract. I had not made the distinction between abstract being a distortion of something familiar, whereas non-objective refers to shapes with no object reference and no subject matter suggestion.
Non-Objective
This bracelet is an example of non-objective sculptural design. The artists’ goal is to make a mini-sculpture that can be worn.
