Multimedia artists are contemporary artists This is a list of artists who create contemporary art, i.e. those whose peak of activity can be situated somewhere between the 1970s and the present day. Artists on this list meet the following criteria: who use a wide range of media to communicate their art. Such media range from installation art Generally, the term is applied to interior spaces, whereas exterior interventions are often called Land art; however the boundaries between these terms overlap. Installation art can be either temporary or permanent. Installation artworks have been constructed in exhibition spaces such as museums and galleries, as well as public- and private spaces, to rooms containing found objects A found object, in an artistic sense, indicates the use of an object which has not been designed for an artistic purpose, but which exists for another purpose already. Found objects may exist either as utilitarian, manufactured items, or things which occur in nature. In both cases the objects are discovered by the artist or musician to be capable or other material, to kinetic sculpture Kinetic art is art that contains moving parts or depends on motion for its effect. The moving parts are generally powered by wind, a motor or the observer. The term kinetic sculpture refers to a class of art made primarily from the late 1950s through 1960s. Kinetic art was first recorded by the sculptors Naum Gabo and Antoine Pevsner in their, to sound and visual effects.
It is important to distinguish between multimedia art and mixed media Mixed media, in visual art, refers to an artwork in the making of which more than one medium has been employed artworks. Within the visual arts, mixed media Mixed media, in visual art, refers to an artwork in the making of which more than one medium has been employed tends to refer to work that combines various traditionally distinct visual art media - such as certain works of Frank Stella Frank Stella is an American painter and printmaker. He is a significant figure in minimalism and post-painterly abstraction or Jane Frank Jane Frank the American artist, was born Jane Babette Schenthal on July 25, 1918, in Baltimore, Maryland, and died in Baltimore on May 31, 1986. She studied with Hans Hofmann and Norman Carlberg and is known as a painter, sculptor, mixed media artist, and textile artist. Her landscape-like, mixed-media abstract paintings are included in some which merge painting Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a surface . In art, the term describes both the act and the result, which is called a painting. Paintings may have for their support such surfaces as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, clay or concrete. Paintings may be decorated with gold leaf, and some modern and sculpture Sculpture is three-dimensional artwork created by shaping or combining hard, plastic material, wire, sound, text, light, commonly stone , metal, glass, or wood. Some sculptures are created directly by finding or carving; others are assembled, built together and fired, welded, molded, or cast. Sculptures are often painted, for example. A work on canvas that combines oil paint, newspaper collage, chalk, glass, and ink, for example, could be called a "mixed media" work - but not a work of "multimedia art." Multimedia art implies a broader scope than mixed media, as in creations combining visual art media with elements usually considered the proper domain of (for example) literature, drama, dance, filmmaking, or music.
Multimedia artwork also frequently engages senses other than sight, such as hearing, touch, or smell. A multimedia artwork can also move, occupy time, or develop over a span of time, instead of remaining static (as does a traditional painting or sculpture). Another frequent trait of multimedia artworks is the use of advanced technological means, such as electronic or computer-generated sound Sound is a travelling wave which is an oscillation of pressure transmitted through a solid, liquid, or gas, composed of frequencies within the range of hearing and of a level sufficiently strong to be heard, or the sensation stimulated in organs of hearing by such vibrations, video Video is the technology of electronically capturing, recording, processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a sequence of still images representing scenes in motion, animation Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images of 2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions in order to create an illusion of movement. It is an optical illusion of motion due to the phenomenon of persistence of vision, and can be created and demonstrated in a number of ways. The most common method of presenting animation is as a motion, and interactivity In the fields of information science, communication, and industrial design, there is debate over the meaning of Interactivity. In the "contingency view" of interactivity, there are three levels: Noninteractive, when a message is not related to previous messages; Reactive, when a message is related only to one immediately previous message;.
Certain traditional genres such as opera and film are inherently multidisciplinary or even "multimedia Multimedia is media and content that uses a combination of different content forms. The term can be used as a noun or as an adjective describing a medium as having multiple content forms. The term is used in contrast to media which only use traditional forms of printed or hand-produced material. Multimedia includes a combination of text, audio," in a very loose sense, since they involve drama, literature, visual art, music, dance, and costumes. Indeed, a union of the arts was exactly what Richard Wagner Wilhelm Richard Wagner was a German composer, conductor, theatre director and essayist, primarily known for his operas (or "music dramas", as they were later called). Unlike most other opera composers, Wagner wrote both the music and libretto for every one of his works imagined in his ideal of the "Gesamtkunstwerk A gesamtkunstwerk is a work of art that makes use of all or many art forms or strives to do so. The term is originally German and is commonly used as such in English, but it is often also translated or explained at first mention. It is often capitalised as in German, where all nouns are capitalised, but it is always lowercased when used with an" or a "synthesis of the arts" (literally: "complete artwork").
Nevertheless, in contemporary terms, opera or even movies would not properly be considered "multimedia art." A work of multimedia art is usually on a smaller scale than an opera or a movie, much less tradition-bound, and typically created entirely by a single person (rather than the collaborative effort of opera or moviemaking). A multimedia work also usually does not require performers. If human performers are used, they are usually ordinary, untrained people, doing nothing requiring any advanced or traditional training, as opposed to trained singers or actors. Multimedia artwork is often presented in a curated museum Museums collect and care for objects of scientific, artistic, or historical importance and make them available for public viewing through exhibits that may be permanent or temporary. Most large museums are located in major cities throughout the world and more local ones exist in smaller cities, towns and even the countryside or gallery An art gallery or art museum is a space for the exhibition of art, usually visual art. Museum can be public or private but what distinguishes a Museum is the ownership of a collection. Paintings are the most commonly displayed art objects; however, sculpture, photographs, illustrations, installation art and objects from the applied arts may also setting, in which the piece is understood to be an extended form of visual art The visual arts are art forms that create works which are primarily visual in nature, such as ceramics, drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, printmaking, modern visual arts , design and crafts. These definitions should not be taken too strictly as many artistic disciplines (performing arts, conceptual art, textile arts) involve aspects of. The creator of a multimedia work of art is typically someone with a formal background in visual art.
