Listen to Ethel Smith who is talking about different types of art and name the contemporary types of art which are mentioned in the article.
There are so many forms and types of art. Music, poetry, garden, pho- tography, architecture and dance are all forms of art, but I shall assume that for the purpose of this article that we are referring to art such as paint- ings and sculptures.
These differ so much depending on the artist, period of time, material and style. Among the different styles of art are modern, traditional, pre- raphalite and neo-classical. Then there are naive paintings, ones using cu- bist or impressionist styles and many, many more.
Paintings may be on walls, canvas, paper or just about anything. Think back to those pictures, which you will have seen at school, that caveman painted on the walls of their caves. The medium used may be crayon, oils, pastels watercolours, inks, enamels or again anything really. Sculpture em- ploys a variety of styles, materials and sizes. The vast ‘Angel of the North’ in the North of England is a fine example of the diversity of sculpture these days.
Myself, I still enjoy pencil sketching when time allows and find it relax- ing. Art can be used well for relaxation, as well as decoration or for a pecu- niary use.
The beauty of art is in the eye of the beholder. There are no rules, and no rights or wrongs. If you look at something and deep down know that you honestly appreciate and like it, it is good art.
Advertising and installation art seems to be one of the biggest markets today. Installations can be seen at galleries and are usually large pieces of work, often a little strange and often involving the viewer participating. Advertisers are using more and more of their creative talents to sell prod- ucts. Some of their adverts become famous and this has always been so. Harry Hudson Rodmell was a famous artist who created many wonderful poster adverts, usually I think for various forms of transport.
The newest and final type of art I shall mention is computer art. Com- puter graphics are taking the world by storm. They are in the film business, advertising and coming to more traditional art works now. I guess this will be the art form of the 21st Century.

MOVIE REVIEW
The Proposal is a 2009 American romantic comedy film, which was a box
office success, set in Sitka, Alaska. How are the elements of the charming,
traditional romantic comedy The Proposal like the checklist of a charming, traditional bride?
The story of a haughty woman and an exasperated man who hate each other — until they realize they love each other — is proudly square, in
the tradition of rom-coms from the 1940s and ‘50s. Or is it straight out
of Shakespeare’s 1590s? Sandra Bullock is the shrew, Margaret, a pitiless, high-powered New York book editor first seen multitasking in the midst
of her aerobic workout. Ryan Reynolds is Andrew Paxton, her put-upon
foil of an executive assistant, a younger man who accepts abuse as a media-
industry hazing ritual. And there the two would remain, locked in mutual
disdain, except for Margaret’s fatal flaw — she’s Canadian. Margaret, with her visa expired, faces deportation and makes the snap executive decision
to marry Andrew in a green-card wedding. It’s an offer the underling can’t
refuse if he wants to keep his job. Andrew insists that Margaret make him an editor after their marriage and publish his book. Margaret agrees.
The couple travels to Sitka, Alaska, Andrew’s home town, to meet his family. Margaret meets Andrew’s mother Grace (Mary Steenburgen) and grandmother Annie a.k.a “Gammy” (Betty White). During a welcome home party, Andrew confronts his father, Joe (Craig T. Nelson), who is angry about Andrew’s dating the boss he has so long disliked and thinks he is us- ing her to get ahead in his career. After their argument, Andrew announces the engagement to everyone. Margaret also meets Gertrude (Malin çker- man), Andrew’s ex-girlfriend.
