1. I chose Buddhism and African Art because they both have very interesting backgrouds and I've always wanted to know more about their history and getting knowledge on the art history is really nice to know.
2.Buddhism
-Began in India
-Shows the meaning of life
-Two types: Hiyanna & Mahayana
-Carving there teachings
African Art
-Power of symbolism is important
-Riturals are important in this culture
-Mask represent their King
3.The readings and the videos both match up, they both gave a lot of insite about Buddhism and African Art. The videos added more to what the text had to say.
4.It was great to learn more about the history of Buddhism, its a great culure to learn from and these videos gave a lot of important and useful infromation. Same thing goes for Africa art, these video helped me learn more about their art and I got to really see more like Mask, we got to see different ones and how they were made and what their meanings are.
