  Movement and Rhythm Movement/Rhythmis the principle of art and design that indicates movement by the repetition of the elements such as line, shape, colour and texture. • One or more elements of art and design are used repeatedly to create a rhythm or feeling of organized movement. • This movement is the path which the viewer’s eye takes through the art work.

  1. Regular movement/rhythm Regularmovement/rhythm in art is characterized by simplicity and ease, • It involves the use of elements which are repeated exactly in an evenly spaced arrangement. Artist: Donald Judd Title: ‘Untitled (stack)’ Year: 1967 Size: Twelve units, each 9 x 40 x 31" (22.8 x 101.6 x 78.7 cm), installed vertically with 9" (22.8 cm) intervals Medium: Lacquer on galvanized iron

  Regular movement/movement example Artist:Bernard Richardson Title: ‘Perched’ Year: 2011 Size: 17 ins x 22 ins Medium: Photograph on canvas Regular movement/rhythm is captured in this photograph through the repetition of the rectangular shapes in the design of the roof and the windows of the building. The shapes making up the roof and the windows have equal amounts of space between them.

  2. Random movement/rhythm Randommovement/rhythm in art refers to the random repetition of art elements in an art work. • There is no particular order or sequence or pattern placed in the composition. • Even though it might not appear ordered the disorder has some unity and balance to it to make the composition pleasing to look at. • Example of Random movement/rhythm Art includes the work of famous Abstract Expressionist Jackson Pollock with his large canvases of splashed and dripped paint.

  Random movement/rhythm examples JacksonPollock, “Number 14”, 1951, Oil on Canvas • He used various colours of paint splashed onto the canvas in what appears to be lines of varying thicknesses and length (long, short, thick, thin, curved, swirly etc. Also there are several blobs/dots of paint make up the artworks adding interest. Jackson Pollock, “Blue Poles or Number 11”, 1952, Oil on Canvas

  Progressive movement/rhythm Progressive movement/rhythmin Art occurs: • when any art element, for example, color, shapes, or form that arranged in a sequence or pattern is changed. This change can occur in size, shape or colour; or they can remain the same but viewed from different angles to give an appearance of progression or changing movement.
• 9.
  Progressive movement/rhythm example Progressivemovement/rhythm is created by the arrangement and changing movement of the flying object through a series of movements from a man-made object (fighter jet) into a natural object (bird)

  4. Flowing movement/rhythm AFlowing movement/rhythm in Art occurs when: • There is a swirling, undulating movement/rhythm created by using repeated elements used to direct the eye through the art work. • This flowing movement/rhythm in Art is mostly shown with the use of curved, circular and wavy lines and organic shapes. • It can also be emphasized using color, texture, value, size and so on. . Artist: Bernard Hoyes Title: ‘Sweeping Rhythms’ Size: 53 ins X 35.5 ins Medium: Acrylic on Canvas

  Flowing movement/rhythm example •The swirling, wavy undulating brush strokes shown in the sky and in the landscape in the background and surrounding the bridge. • The ‘organic’ shape and smooth wavy brush strokes used in painting the screaming figure standing on the bridge Artist: Edvard Munch Title: ‘The Scream’ Year: 1983 Size: 36 ins X 28.9 ins Medium: Oil, tempera, pastel and crayon on cardboard In this painting flowing movement/rhythm is created by:

  5. Alternating movement/rhythm Alternatingmovement/rhythm in art occurs • When an Artwork is made up of a repetition of more than one element or motifs arranged in a repeating pattern or used alternately. • A common example of an alternating rhythm in art is that of a chessboard with its black and white squares. • Alternating movement/rhythm in art is like a regular rhythm, but it is more intricate since it is created using more that one element or motif which are sometimes placed in different directions.
• 13.
  Alternating movement/rhythm example Thecubes create an alternating rhythm as the shapes and colours used are repeated to create a pattern.
