From Albania to Brazil: Ismail Kadaré's Broken april and its filmic adaptation, Walter Salles' Abril despedaçado
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira

Proportional drawing aid / Issarezal Ismail ... [et al.]
No full textStudents in the field of art sometimes don’t have ability and skills to achieve accurate proportion and arrange composition in their drawing due to lack of experiences and less of practices. They are seen hard to obtain the best focus area before starting to produce drawing and easily lose direction during artistic process because of the wide eye view. Therefore, this innovative design named Proportional Drawing Aid (PDA) was created as a tool and technology suitable for art students to compile the drawing process in the drawing class, whether implemented indoors or outdoors. The prototype design was inspired by conventional window frame method used to be held by hands but now has added added value through the innovation by combining it with eyewear to be more practical and provide comfort to its users.

The boneless flower and bird painting art: a comparison study between traditional and modern approach on Lin Ruoxi’s artworks / Feifei Duan, Issarezal Ismail and Ishak Ramli
No full textLin Ruoxi is one of the representative painters of the contemporary Lingnan School of Painting, and one of the main representative painters of contemporary boneless paintings. His boneless paintings have a distinctive personal style and have a profound influence on the creation of contemporary boneless paintings. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the modernity of Lin Ruoxi's boneless paintings from the perspective of stylistics and select Lin Ruoxi's representative works of boneless paintings in the past 40 years as the research objects. The photos are compared with conventional boneless paintings from five perspectives—technique, composition, colour, form, and medium and the differences are summarised. Specifically, the observation and comparison approach is employed for the research. The study discovered that Lin Ruoxi's boneless painting technique had incorporated numerous other painting techniques based on tradition; the composition makes use of the plane composition principle; the colour draws inspiration from the colouring style of contemporary Japanese painting; the shape is refined and generalised to be more refined, with imagery; and the choice of media tends to be creative and diverse. The analysis of Lin Ruoxi's boneless painting style reveals that while it has its roots in traditional Chinese painting, it is inclusive, pioneering, and innovative, bringing his creations more in line with the demands of contemporary aesthetics. The great eclecticism and modernism in the artistic philosophy are evident
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

No full textA poster is not just a combination of visual and text that have aspects of beauty or entertainment. However, it is a tool or medium of non-verbal communication created by its creator to convey something in the form of messages to others. This study seeks to approach, understand and explain the message of a series of posters of Covid-19 from the Sabah Art Gallery created by Intan Munirah Hamzah covering the structure, content, and function of its message. The art study approach, which is fundamentally based on a qualitative approach that emphasizes a descriptive and holistic explanatory system, has been used at the same time through a conceptual framework built on relevant concepts as a frame of analysis. The analysis shows that the Covid-19 poster from the Sabah Art Gallery are trying to convey the message of self-safety and prevention related to the Covid-19 phenomenon that is plaguing the world today. Its message structure conveys the meanings of courtesy and morality, compliance, and even discretion when everyone is required to practice some safety and precautionary measures such as wearing a facemask, sitting at home, and frequently washing their hands. This series of poster not only plays its role in providing information and preventive measures in the face of the Covid-19 phenomenon but also activates its function through teaching values such as health values, hygiene values, sacrifice values, and new social norms values in order to ultimately encouraging or inviting people to play their part in response to this global pandemic situatio
