3 ArtPrize Education Days 2D Entries that exist primarily on a flat plane. Painting, drawing, photography, printmaking, and most textiles are examples of 2-D work. 3D Entries that occupy space and are intended to be viewed from multiple angles. Genres of ArtPrize Let’s Learn About the Different Types of Art at ArtPrize
Time Based
Cultivate
Entries that are dependent on the site in which they are installed. The location is not a neutral ground, but makes up an important ingredient of the work. Installation is different from 3-D in that changing the location of the piece would dramatically change the work.
Entries that are durational, meaning that they change over time. The viewer, or person looking at the artwork, has to spend a longer amount of time looking at it to understand it. This includes performance, video and film, dance, music, and interactive work.

Our eyes and brains work together to translate light into color! Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. The surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others; so what we’re seeing is the reflected colors.
If you could hold a color, what would it feel like? Warm Colors are colors that would feel warm - these are red, orange, and yellow. Cool Colors are colors that would feel cool if you could touch them - these are violet, blue, and green.
The primary colors make these colors! Secondary colors are purple, green, and orange
