Repetition

Andy Warhol:

         Andy Warhol was a famous visual artist and film director. These images from Andy Warhol show repetition. The way how the first image shows repetition is by of the repeated use of the same soup cans all next to each other, and also on top of each other. Compared to the other image from Andy Warhol this one is less interesting because both have repetition, however, this image doesn't have any distortion in order to make the image more interesting.

             

The way Andy Warhol shows repetition on the second image is by the repeated use of the lady. However, on this painting, there is one of the ladies on the middle of the second row that looks slightly different compared to all of the other ladies that are in this painting by the face being sort of distorted. This makes the painting more interesting because off how odd it is for one of the parts to be distorted and not the other.

Donald Judd: 

Donald Clarence Judd was an American artist associated with minimalism. These images show repetition because of the use of the chairs. What makes this image unique is that every chair looks different. Some of the insides of the chair being empty, and some being blocked like with the second chair on the left. But, all of them being chairs. Another thing that makes this image much more interesting is how the little brown dots in each of the chairs are all different. Some being darker or lighter, or in different places. 

This image demonstrates repetition because of the repeated use of the same rectangle. Same color. All of these rectangles are repeating vertically. What makes this image interesting is how equal they all look. Most of the images before had some type of difference. 

Maurits Cornels Escher

Maurits Cornelis Escher was a Dutch graphic artist who made woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints, many of which were inspired by mathematics. The way this image uses repetition is by the repeated use of the birds. The birds all look the same and they make white birds going the opposite way of the black birds. 

Maurtis Cornels Escher also uses repetition in this image by the repeating amount of circles. Also, the two of the same faces but with somewhat different facial expressions. There are also some black circles that are kind of difficult to see. I like how the circles are also similar in size.
