The goal of this essay is to illustrate the parallels between the many ancient arts in history. The clear theme among many groups seems to be the interest in human, their actions and their emotions. This paper will illustrate that point. Few undamaged originals of ancient architecture or large sculpture remain, and no many paintings have survived. An abundance of pottery vases, coins, jewelry, and gems have survived, however, and along with Etruscan tomb paintings, these give some indication of the characteristics of ancient art. These treasures are supplemented by literary sources. As we can see through history and artifacts, common themes do exist between the ancient art of Rome, Greek, and Egyptian art. Artists were interested in expressing and representing human beings. With the actions and emotions of human beings always being the centerpiece, the parallels between the arts is clear and this can be seen in vases, and pottery, architecture and literature.

254.157 The Censorship of Art.
This paper looks at the issue of censorship in art. This paper will identify some of the most recent controversies in the art world and defend the opinion that censorship stilts freedom of expression. This paper will also look at censorship in the areas of art pertaining in public places and on the Internet. Whatever their medium or message and regardless of whether their content is unpopular or upsets some people or is of poor quality, artistic creations are protected by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution. The question of whether it is appropriate for the public to subsidize all, and any, forms of art is legitimate. All art is not great and everyone does not appreciate all art. Great art is not necessarily popular and unpopular at is not necessarily great. In the best of all worlds, perhaps art should not be subsidized. But a life without art is poor. Art by definition is the highest form of expression even if it is not always pretty, or politically, or religiously, correct. Censorship, whether direct or indirect, is not the American way.

255.162 Zhao Mengfu's Autumn Colors on the Qiao and Hua Mountains.
This paper is written about Neolithic painted petroglyphs, early paintings on silk, and landscapes by twelfth-century literati to the traditional handscrolls being produced today, Chinese paintings have always been captivating, detailed, and meaningful beyond the page.

This painting clearly accentuates the far-reaching plane-the surface of earth, the mountains. The trees in the foreground are the central part, while the while the mountains present the far-reaching background that stands still, it seems, in time.

256.365 Michelangelo Buonarotti.
This paper discusses the work of Michelangelo Buonarotti. Michelangelo Buonarotti is arguably one of the most inspired and prolific creators in the history of art and, alongside Leonardo da Vinci, can certainly be counted as one of the two most important figures of the Italian High Renaissance. As a sculptor, architect, painter, and poet, Michelangelo exerted a tremendous influence on both his contemporaries and on all Western art to follow. Some of Michelangelo's most famous works were commissioned for the Florence Cathedral and support the notion that he was fascinated by saintly sinners.

257.396 Guernica.
This paper discusses Picasso's cubist masterpiece, Guernica. Painted as a mural for the Spanish Pavilion of the 1937 World's Fair in Paris, Guernica at its most basic level represents the monstrosities of war. But there is nothing basic about this painting. One could literally spend hours lost in its haunting images and hidden meanings. But without looking too deeply, one can see clearly the message that Picasso was trying to convey.

258.415 Sally Mann and His Photography.
This paper discusses the photographer Sally Mann. Mann's photographs have often been regarded as controversial, and have evoked praise as well as condemnation and debate whenever they've been exhibited. Her large black and white prints, all shot with a more than hundred year old 8x10 camera, focus on her own family, her children and friends growing up in her home state of Virginia, observations of her environment, interactions of time and place, and of family and friends. Her work displays an intimacy and casualness, captured extraordinarily by the large format camera. Upon seeing her work for the first time, one may describe the images as "haunting", "comforting", or "disturbing". But no matter one's opinion of the work, few walk away from her images untouched.
