Unit1 ART 选修三 本单元的引言出自美国思想家拉尔夫·沃尔多·爱默生的散文《论美》（Beauty）。在《论美》一文中，爱默生指出：美是人类灵魂的一种需求。人人都有爱美之心，而艺术家不满足于对美的仰慕之情。对美的追求和热爱，激励着艺术家不断创造作品，以新的形式去表现美。这种美的创造就是“艺术”。 Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art. —— Ralph Waldo Emerson 对美的喜爱是品位。对美的创造是艺术。 ——拉尔夫·沃尔多·爱默生 Lead-in What kinds of art do you know? dance literature music opera film painting architecture sculpture Look at other paintings and answer the questions.

His great paintings include The Sunflowers, Starry Night and Wheatfield with Crows. 5 Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist. One of his most famous paintings, Guernica(格尔尼卡), is a very large painting showing the bombing of a Spanish town during the Spanish Civil War. Claude Monet (1840 — 1926), was a French painter who was the initiator (创始人), leader, and unswerving (坚定的) advocate of the Impressionist style. Famous paintings include: Wheatstacks (干草堆), Sunrise (日出), Waterlilies (睡莲). Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) was an Italian polymath (博学大师), but is most well-known as a painter. Famous paintings include Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. He is seen as an example of “Renaissance man”, a person whose skills and desire for knowledge and development know no bounds. 8 Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is a speaking picture. Enjoy the paintings; enjoy your life! 画是无言的诗, 诗是有声的画。 School of Athens 1. Do you know the name of the painting? Who painted it? 2. What can you see in the painting? 3. Who are these people?
