I selected to review the movies, Hinduism, Buddhism, African Art, and the Great Waves. I thought these videos would widen my understanding of these religious and cultural values and enhance my knowledge of the art in these cultures.
The video, African Art, showed many of the rituals and spiritual forms still present in this area. Even so, that some of these aspects have become a part of daily life. Additionally, the video enhances and elaborates on the explanation of the text on African cultures.
The video, Buddhism, compliments the text well. It shows of Buddhism, once established in India, and then spread throughout the rest of the world. This video does an excellent job analyzing many Buddhists’ architectures.
I really enjoyed the video, Hinduism. I have always been interested in Hindu ideology and it was enjoyable to see the art influenced from this religion.
I did not really know what to expect with the Great Video. On a side note, this video was my favorite. I especially enjoyed the analysis of the different meanings of the great wave. This video really familiarized me with Japanese art.
Overall these videos were a great supplement to the reading. They did an excellent job explaining the different art from these areas and religions. Moreover, the videos reinforced much of the knowledge in the text and widen my knowledge of the material.
