    TIME PERIODS WITHIN GREEK ART

    GEOMETRIC ARCHAIC CLASSICAL HELLENISTIC


    900-700 BC 600-480 BC 480-400 BC 321-31 BC

    GEOMETRIC:

    Geometric Art is the phase of Greek art where motifs that are mainly use are in the form of geometry
    which flourish during 900-700 BC. Firing terracotta vases; casting and cold working bronze; engraving
    gems; and working gold were the most common form of art in this time. As time passed the art was
    developed in such way that the identity of the figures and different styles can be distinguished.

    ARCHAIC:

    Archaic Art flourish throughout sixth century B.C. a time when Greek artists made increasingly
    naturalistic representations of human figure in two types of freestanding, large scale sculptures
    predominated the male kouros (standing nude youth) and female kore (standing draped maiden). They
    portrayed their own myths and customs, by forging the foundations of archaic and classical Greek art.
    With the two being combined motifs were introduced—palmette and lotus compositions, animal hunts,
    and beasts such as griffins ( part bird, part lion), sphinxes (part woman, part winged lion) and sirens( part
    woman, part bird).

    CLASSICAL:

    Classical art flourish during 480-400 BC at this time greek artists attained a manner of representation
    that conveys a vitality of life as well as a sense of permanence, clarity and harmony. Bronze being valued
    for its tensile strength and lustrous beauty has become the preferred medium for free standing statuary,
    although very few bronze originals of the fifth century B.C. survived.
    HELLENISTIC:

    Hellenistic art is richly diverse in subject matter and in stylistic development. It was created during an
    age characterized by a strong sense of history. The death of Alexander the great marks the beginning of
    the Hellenistic Period (323 B.C) which manifested the Greek artistic styles of new exotic influences.
    Prominent Hellenistic art represents unorthodox subjects, such as grotesques and of more conventional
    inhabitants such as children and elderly people.

    GANDHARA ART:

    Gandhara art was based in Greco-roman norms encapsulating foreign techniques and an alien spirit it
    was also known as Graeco-Buddhist School of Art. Materials used were mostly terracotta. I believe the
    art’s purpose was to portray high religious entities to have a sense of spiritual connection with the
    religion that they practice.

    AUGUSTUS OF PRIMAPORTA

    The Emperor wears military breastplate while his right arm is outstretched demonstrating a form of
    command which shows the idea of power. His breast plate appears to have a message in terms of the
    figures shown. People then believe in many gods which perhaps indicates the notion of the gods being
    on his side.
