Module 11- Blog Video Review

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
I chose The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th century to the present because being Hispanic I wanted to learn more about the art aspect of my culture.
I chose Dada and Surrealism Expressionism because I was curious to find out what that is. 
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The first video was interesting because I learned about an artist named Goya which is funny because that is a brand that Hispanics commonly use for their cooking ingredients.
The second video just showed different schools and art events. 
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The readings in the book were more informative than the videos
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
I liked the idea of the Spanish Art video but I didn't like how either of the videos executed their ideas.
