Maurits Cornell Escher is one of the famous graphic arts. He made wonderful arts and realistic work during the time he lived in Italy. During his lifetime, he made 448 lithographs, woodcuts, and wood engraving and over 2000 drawings and sketches.

These are the M. C. Escher's art:

In this picture, we can truly see the positive and negative space that combine and go through circle, so it looks like 3D. In this picture, the positive and negative space are moving and separating.


In this picture, same like before, Escher uses the theme of "metamorphosis". Look like the images in order become the 2D visual. 


This picture is different like two before. Those two pictures before is a illusion picture, but in this picture, it just uses positive and negative value on it. his image of animals we can truly see on this picture.

ART 109

Frank Owen Gehry is one of the most famous Architect in the world. His Architectural style is deconstructivism, with it means he can manipulate a structure's surface, non-rectilinear which appear to distort and dislocate element of architecture, such as structure and envelope.

Most of his building use that style, it makes the building look curving. For the example is the image of the building in bottom page, it shows the curve line in the building, so it looks like wave. In this building, we can see that the curve lines locate random and not strict to the building. And the building's shape, it's a stragiht lines. So, it looks inside the square, there are curve lines. And it looks abstractive.
