Characteristics of Two-
Dimensional Media
What are the characteristics of Two-
dimensional media?
• Shapes that are 2-dimensional are those that have only length
and width, with no sense of depth. Look at examples of both
positive and negative 2-dimensional shapes, and understand the
use of 2-dimensional shapes in art.
Two-Dimensional Art
• Two-dimensional art consists of paintings, drawings, prints, and photographs,
which differ from each other primarily in the technique of their execution.
Probably, our initial response to all four is a response to subject matter--that
is, we first notice what the painting, drawing, print, or photograph is about.
Such recognition leads us into the work's meaning and begins to shape our
response to it.
• Though 2D work can create the illusion of 3 Dimensions, any artwork that is
created within the boundaries of 2 dimensions (height and width) falls under
the category of 2 Dimensional Media. These media can use materials, such as
paper, canvas, or a computer, to make artifacts that are essentially flat.

DESCRIPTION ANALYSIS INTERPRETATION EVALUATION
What makes an
artwork good?
Aesthetics is a discipline concerned with
the perception, appreciation, and
production of art.
Aesthetic Theory
Imitate = copy
Mona Lisa, 1503-06 by Bob 1970 by
Leonardo da Vinci Chuck Close
Formalism
- The aesthetic theory known as formalism stresses the
visual qualities and composition of an artwork. The
focus is on the effective arrangements of the elements of
art and principles of design. Formalist artworks may not
even have recognizable objects as long as they are
composed in an interesting way.
Emotions = feelings
The Scream 1893 by Alone, 2009 by
Edvard Munch Aaron Guthrie
Instrumentalism
- The aesthetic theory of instrumentalism believe that art should
influence society. Art that is thought to be instrumental is generally
didactic in nature, in that it instructs, persuades, inform or be used.
Instrumentalist art has a message or purpose, but could still have
formal, imitational, or emotional qualities and therefore produce an
aesthetic response. Instrumentalist art can also be considered
functional; it has a use in our daily lives.
