Uploading PDF Images http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/2007/11/uploading-pdf-images/ http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/2007/11/uploading-pdf-images/#comments Sat, 03 Nov 2007 18:26:08 +0000 lhorridge http://web.honorscollege.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/?p=400 To upload PDF images you must open the image first and “save as” jpg. Then upload your jpg as usual.

Also note that file names need to be changed to plain text and numbers without spaces, symbols, etc.

If your image file preview is too big, just click “show:title” in your upload options box before posting to create a simple link that will open in a new page.

This is not ideal in that it does not create an instant thumbnail, but it is better than leaving it as a pdf in which case users have to go through many more steps to actually see the image (see example below).

For some reason I am having issues helping Anna-Maja post this flyer for a Chekhov play running at Brooklyn College. Until I figure out this pdf issue, please click on the link for more info and open with the preview option for more info.

And thanks for a great class yesterday – good times indeed!

Lynn

Serra’s magnum opus http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/2007/10/serra%e2%80%99s-magnum-opus/ http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/2007/10/serra%e2%80%99s-magnum-opus/#comments Mon, 15 Oct 2007 22:23:08 +0000 siwenliao http://web.honorscollege.cuny.edu/seminars/saldana07/?p=307 I consider myself to be very lucky for I had a chance to appreciate Richard Serra’s magnum opus: Richard Serra Sculpture: Forty Years, a retrospective of Serra’s work: Intersection II (1992-1993) and Torqued Ellipse IV (1998), in the MoMA (The museum no longer shows the exhibition). Richard Serra, a minimalist sculptor, astounded me with his unconventional ways of looking at art.

When I stepped into the MoMA, I truthfully had no clue whatsoever of what I was going to uncover. I knew that I was going to see Picasso and Monet, but I never expected Serra. However, his magnum opus quickly caught my attention when I first saw it. I did not know what it was until I read the brief description in the wall. After realizing that the entire structure, which was four meters high, was made of iron, I just wonder, “Wow, how could he have possibly made such a big piece of hefty work.” The sculpture was funny-looking – it was a monumental labyrinth made from a series of big walls and curves. While walking through it, I almost got dizzy; and because of his size, I also felt belittled, just like a midget. Since this was my first exhibition, I then went for more modern art. Nonetheless, in the end, I found nothing as spectacular as Serra’s work.
