ITAP

ITAP is a lecture i attend every Tuesday, and it is filled with lots of useful information about art and design. The last one i attended told me about most elements in art and design and explained about to use others ideas without committing plagiarism, because copying is never stealing as we were told. We were also shown many pictures from different artists some dating back to the 1800s and how people have adapted these pieces and made them their own just by using a different medium, for example if a piece is done using sketch and an artist comes along a few years later and then does the same piece but changes a few things around then paints it that inst plagiarism, because they've used some of their own ideas and then changed the medium. Picasso does this alot in his work, he takes many ideas of quite serious paintings then used his medium or shapes to create a much more interesting piece. The next ITAP lecture focus on illustration which i specialize in so hopefully il be able to grab some ideas from that.
