(.Neo-s comments. Rmv Police misconduct for inclusion at AP.+list of dominican films.)
Line 1: Line 1:

-Neosurrealism is not fully covered in this article. I will retain this here for notes, to fix the [[Wikipedia:George Grie]] article and anywhere else neo-surrealism is linked, by linking it to Surrealism. Shrug. At the risk of being ignorant, the difference seems to be less dreamlike imagery and, mostly because of the computer graphics medium, creating a similar effect to the Pre-Raphaelites (fantasy elements + hyper realism). Very little of what I have seen could be called surreal, even. Not that I don't like the new stuff, it is clean and pretty where surrealism was jerky and ugly, albeit jerky and ugly in a way I grew to like.
 +
 +
I can sympathize with artists who need a box that the media and buyers can tag their art with, but they need to work harder on a name. Some of the names it could be called seem to be linked to Neosurrealism anyway, like Magic realism and Visionary art.
 +
 +
Finally, the article does not fit well with favored AP content. I would hope, don't expect it is likely, but hope, that some day, AP would have as many articles as WP, so I would like to include everything. But I can see where there realistically, for now, has to be a line. The decision on whether that means articles on art do not belong is something that only time will tell, I hope.

==Officer road rage and deadly conduct convictions==

==E==
*In 2007 Pasadena Police Officer Marcus Justin Kacz was found Guilty in a [[Road Rage]] Incident.<ref name="chron4">http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5168115.html</ref> A [[jury]] found Pasadena Police Officer Marcus Justin Kacz [[guilty]] of deadly conduct when he shot his gun at a man in a [[road rage]] incident while off duty.<ref name="chron4"/> Harris County Court at Law No. 1 visiting [[Judge]] Jim Larkin sentenced Kacz to 18 months [[probation]] for the Class A misdemeanor.<ref name="chron4"/> Officer Kacz had to pay a $400 [[fine]], attend anger management classes, do [[community service]], and undergo random [[urine]] tests.<ref name="chron4"/> "I think you made a big mistake and showed bad judgment," Judge Larkin said during sentencing.<ref name="chron4"/> Kacz, 26, was in civilian clothes when he chased a driver who cut him off about 2 a.m. on Beltway 8 at Spencer, said [[prosecutor]] Joe Owmby.<ref name="chron4"/> While traveling along the East Sam Houston Tollway, Esteban passed Kacz's vehicle, which began following him.  Kacz, an off-duty Pasadena police officer, was driving his own unmarked pickup truck.<ref name="coa5">http://www.14thcoa.courts.state.tx.us/opinions/htmlopinion.asp?OpinionId=85820</ref> Several minutes later, Esteban exited the tollway and stopped at a red light.  Kacz, who  had stopped behind Esteban, then got out of his vehicle and approached the Explorer.  Esteban later testified that Kacz was saying something as he approached, but Esteban could not hear him as the driver's side window was closed.<ref name="coa5"/> It is not disputed that Kacz was not in uniform, and instead was wearing only a Polo shirt, jeans, and boots.  According to Esteban, Cornelio, and Arantez, Kacz approached the Explorer with his handgun drawn.<ref name="coa5"/> Esteban later testified that, fearing Kacz might [[shoot]] him, he ran the red light and sped away. Kacz returned to his vehicle and followed Esteban to the apartment complex where Cornelio was living at the time. Upon reaching the parking lot, Esteban parked the Explorer, exited the vehicle, and ran away. The other occupants also quickly exited the Explorer.  But while Arantez and Sanchez ran away, Cornelio returned to the Explorer to get the keys. By the time Cornelio had retrieved the keys from the Explorer's ignition, Kacz had arrived, gotten out of his truck, and was again approaching with his [[weapon]] drawn.<ref name="coa5"/> It is undisputed that Cornelio threw a bottle of beer at Kacz, and that the two men wrestled on the ground for control of Kacz=s handgun. Ultimately, Cornelio got away from Kacz, returned to his Explorer, and quickly drove off.  As Cornelio sped away, Kacz fired shots at the vehicle.<ref name="coa5"/> Cornelio, Esteban, and their friends were then quickly apprehended by officers of the Pasadena Police Department, responding to a call involving a police officer at the apartment complex. For firing his [[handgun]] in Cornelio's direction as he drove away, Kacz was charged with one count of deadly conduct.<ref name="coa5"/>  He was tried by a [[jury]] and [[convicted]]. The trial court imposed a sentence of 180 days in the Harris County Jail, but suspended the sentence in favor of eighteen months [[probation]] and a [[fine]] of $400.00.<ref name="coa5"/>

===Witness account and police response===

==L==
A [[witness]] to the force used by Pasadena Police officers Jason Buckaloo and Christopher Jones on Gonzales said the 51-year-old man was not struggling or resisting arrest as the Officers hit him and repeatedly knocked his body to the ground.<ref name="cor10"/> "Just the way they were beating him and him not moving, I think that's (the homicide ruling) pretty right," the [[witness]], Evelyn Moreno, stated.<ref name="cor10"/> Shortly after driving past the beating at about 2 a.m., Moreno called 911 from a pay phone to report [[police brutality]], but a Pasadena Police Department [[dispatcher]], and her supervisors did not send an [[ambulance]] or police to investigate.<ref name="cor10"/> Gonzales was found dead in a Pasadena Jail cell about five hours after Pasadena Police Officers Buckaloo and Jones arrested him between 2 and 2:30 a.m., less than half a mile from the jail.<ref name="cor10"/> [[Pasadena]] [[Police]] stated that no one was sent to investigate Moreno's call because the scene had cleared within a few minutes. The incident report, however, shows that officers had not booked Gonzales into the jail until 25 minutes after Moreno's call.<ref name="cor10"/>

Revision as of 08:48, 22 December 2010

-Neosurrealism is not fully covered in this article. I will retain this here for notes, to fix the Wikipedia:George Grie article and anywhere else neo-surrealism is linked, by linking it to Surrealism. Shrug. At the risk of being ignorant, the difference seems to be less dreamlike imagery and, mostly because of the computer graphics medium, creating a similar effect to the Pre-Raphaelites (fantasy elements + hyper realism). Very little of what I have seen could be called surreal, even. Not that I don't like the new stuff, it is clean and pretty where surrealism was jerky and ugly, albeit jerky and ugly in a way I grew to like.

I can sympathize with artists who need a box that the media and buyers can tag their art with, but they need to work harder on a name. Some of the names it could be called seem to be linked to Neosurrealism anyway, like Magic realism and Visionary art.

Finally, the article does not fit well with favored AP content. I would hope, don't expect it is likely, but hope, that some day, AP would have as many articles as WP, so I would like to include everything. But I can see where there realistically, for now, has to be a line. The decision on whether that means articles on art do not belong is something that only time will tell, I hope.

Neosurrealism

Digital Art, George Grie
Digital Art, George Grie

Neosurrealism or Neo-Surrealism is an artistic genre that illustrates the complex imagery of dream or subconscious visions in irrational space and form combinations.
The term has been given to the reappearance of the surrealism movement in the late 1970s. Initially, the movement focused on relating surrealism with pop-art, but lately modern artists have been exploring extra directions similar to fantastic, visionary, and fantasy art within the present genre. Neosurrealism is sometimes called "modern surrealism" due to a noticeable visual resemblance of these two genres. However, the main distinction between them is that Neosurrealism does not imply the original surrealist idea of a freedom from rational control or psychic automatism declared by André Breton, in his “Manifeste du surréalisme” (Surrealist Manifesto).

Neosurrealism in arts & media

Movement

Any art movement is defined as a tendency or style in art with a specific common philosophy or goal, followed by a group of artists during a restricted period of time. This definition may be applied to Neosurrealism but it does not have a particular founder or group. The movement is still not clearly defined, but it develops rapidly adding more professional and amateur art enthusiasts every day. As it was suggested above, the field of neosurrealism is a highly intricate and fiercely contested one, and there is no universal consensus on precisely what constitutes neosurrealism. The name itself remains very unstable, shifting in meaning according to who uses it, when, where, and in what context. Whether or not this merely multiplies problems of definition is a debatable point, but it certainly reflects the dynamically conflicted, constantly developing, and heterogeneous nature of the movement itself. Neosurrealism and Realism in art are visual dramas diametrically opposite in intent. Neosurrealism expresses interior poetic states of being, envisaged in irrational space and form. Realism, illuminated by objectivity and directed by rational representation, appeals to recognizable truth.

Visual arts

Neosurrealism is a combined imagery of dreams, fantasies, and subconscious mind visions in fine art painting, digital art graphic, and photography. In the mid 1980s, modern computer technologies brought a large amount of additional depicting power to contemporary artists not possible by hand. The arrival of desktop publishing and the introduction of software applications introduced a generation of artists to computer image manipulation and 3D image creation that had previously been unachievable. There are thousands of artists, digital and traditional fine art media, who create neo-surrealistic, surreal fantasy, and fantasy realism artworks comparable to Neosurrealism.

Artists associated with modern surrealism include:

Internet

Neosurrealism is a philosophical, conceptual, artistic movement that acts as a revival of surrealist thought in relation to the new culture of the Internet. The Internet is seen by some Template:Weasel-inline as a connection to, (or even the fabric of), a global subconscious mind which promotes unintentional juxtapositions of words and phrases while also imposing a new mental block that neo-surrealists are overcoming with internet automatism.[unverified]

The movement has been taking place at universities in Florida between philosophy, psychology, and art departments [unverified]. It is still in its early stages of growth and many people are becoming involved in dialogs about the future of the movement. It can also include a culture of revival, where people go back in time and use the style of art in the modern world (for example, the art Deco).
