This is the kinda stuff I love. Being able to listen to someone speak passionately about something they know really well is just so rewarding. ~TL Notes~ 00:49 - Today's transition sfx is from a line of pachinko machines called Mahjong Monogatari. The sound itself is from the theme song. If you wanna hear it search 天知る地知るお味噌汁 I didn't fully watch any of versions, but they might be slightly nsfw? Just saying to be safe lol. Edit: Forgot to mention that she uses the Japanese titles for all the paintings. I had them along with the English titles at first, but it was just too many words on screen. She almost slips on "The Milkmaid" so I think she actually knows them by their western titles too.

Any insight as to what Raden-san meant when she put so much emphasis on "全然大丈夫" at 9:50? Is that like "despite popular beliefs, I think this is okay", "I really like this thing, fight me", or some other subtlety? It's a little hard since she's talking about the feelings of a fictional third person, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

​@@candlemancer7852Basically, she's saying any emotional reaction to a work of art is a good thing. Maybe some people think a negative reaction to a piece is a bad thing, so maybe she just wanted to reassure everyone that that's what art is there for, to elicit emotional responses, even if negative!

Thanks for showing all the references especially the arts stuff. Just as I found out about rokkonshojo.. i got hit by misosoup in confusion yet again lol

I love this. I studied art in school so it's very nice to see someone talking and thinking about it seriously. What a fascinating addition to hololive

Never thought I'd hear about Art History coming from a Vtuber muchless use my prior knowledge from pursuing it in university. She did a pretty solid job in explaining art, but it's still as dry as I remember it LOL... (the technical side in particular) The artworks themselves are great. One thing to add to her Iconography explanation, it is subdivided into religious art and secular art (non religious art), like the flower example she mentioned. Here's some fun art facts to people who haven't studied or looked into it: - The Impressionist style that Raden mentions that Monet and many Impressionist Artists painted in is considered "Painterly" as the viewer can see the visible brushwork. - The Impressionist art style was made to paint things simultaneously on the spot (as paintings from the renaissance period were painted in a studio) - Artists like Raphael from the Renaissance would never consider Impressionist artworks as art. - To artists in the Renaissance period, showing your brushwork would make your art unfinished, incomplete, and amateurish. - Impressionist artist like Monet were looked down on by art critics during their time because they valued realistic art.

Raden also did a good job explaining the generic terms, there's just some things she could have added to her explanation, but I think it may have lead to her going on a tangent about specifics and would have been a bit much to someone who never learnt the subject. She probably kept it simple to not overwhelm her viewers. Yea I think she was testing the waters to see how receptive her viewers would be. Hopefully she goes more indepth about what she enjoys in the future.

I'm going to be quite an ashhole for giving corrections but, - as per mentioned: impressionists painted literally in nature. Paint in a tube only got invented in 1841 which basically allows painters a quicker painting method. Before that, the way to paint would be most likely (I'm not a conservationist, so I might be wrong) to put a very thin layers of the same color one after the other. If you've ever wondered why a painter finished a painting after two years, the reason would simply be having enough time to paint each and every layer, one after the other. This results in gradual color gradation (very light blue to light blue to normal blue to dark blue to very dark blue - all this beside each other). - The aforementioned technique was basically there from the times of Jan van Eyck, which died in 1441 until around 400 years later. For example Johan Christian Dahl's (a close friend to Caspar David Friedrich) Swinemünde bei Mondschein (Swinemuende under moonlight) from 1840 still uses this technique. The painting is still very much composed and you barely see any uncontrolled brushstrokes. - The reason for this technique's longetivity among others the "value" pinned down in Italian renaissance art of disegno and colore - sketching (which also means composing) and coloring. Sketching makes your painting look like everything's in place and coloring makes your painting looks life-like. And this value of composing your painting still holds true, even to so called realists such as Adolph Menzel. If you look at his works, you might still have a sense that it is way too story-like, despite supposedly being realist. Take for example his Eisenwalzwerk (Iron Rolling Mill). The main scene in the middle shows a working scene, but if you look at the sides you would see workers doing... not work related things: having lunch and washing themselves. Now does this mirror the harsh reality of working in an iron mill? Yes. Does this portray a snapshot of a moment in the workings of an iron mill? Questionable... Hell, even famous painters like Jacques Louis David got shit on during his early career due to his shitty composition. - To say that impressionism were looked down by art critics would be quite an oversimplification. After all art critics (much like galleries and museums of contemporary art) are networks of people who made a living among others by playing to the taste of the paying customers. Basically the 19th century equivalent of review youtubers. And a revolution in painting technique would be reason enough to disprove impressionism - at first. Remember - composition was there for more than 400 years! Now to say that impressionists don't compose their painting would be downright wrong. But their ideals to paint under sunlight (remember paint tubes?) means that less time are put both into composing and coloring. - Also another thing that might play into impresionism's early critique is still the strong hold of the art taste by the royalty - especially in Paris until around the 1860s (basically the downfall of Napoleon III) and in Berlin up until the early 1900s. These are the times where the royalty and institutions still has a firm grasp on public opinions - independent artists was possible, but famous independent artists were almost unheard of (again, Paris & Berlin - the situation in London was... somewhat different. And frankly, this is a research theme in itself but bare with my barebones explanation for now). Basically what happened to both cities around said time was a strong independent movement - the Salon des Refuses (Salon/Gallery of the rejects) in Paris and the Secession in Berlin (following other German speaking cities such as Vienna and Munich, some of the more important & canonized secessions). Only after this (again, oversimplifying) did impressionism started to get accepted by the art public of said cities. SO, TL:DR impressionism, utilizing technology, basically broke a 400 year tradition, earning themselves a (imo deserved) shitstorm, but stood strong enough to gain enough momentum and became a breakway of modern western art

@@alvinlaurentius7270 it was a good read and I wouldn't consider it negative. Anything educational in my opinion is always welcomed. There was a lot to put down, but I tried to simplify it so it was easier to digest and I definitely oversimplified it like you stated. I guess a better analogy would have been in today's day and age older generations always thinking they know better than the younger generation with certain ways to approach things and having strong opinions on them. Comparably with the history and style of art being cemented for hundreds of years after the Renaissance period a specific ideology was formed as a result. So anything that went against those ideologies were considered bad. Thanks for the more thorough Art History lesson though! It's been almost a decade since I've touched on it so I definitely forgot a few things.

Short correction: I was wrong about Caspar David Friedrich using the same technique as Flemish/Netherland Renaissance painter - he painted with oil colora and not a mixture of egg and tempera. What remains is the still painstaking attention to detail - something the impressionists "gave up" in exchange for a quicker, more fluid way of painting.

This is one of the most difficult thing to understand in yesterday stream. She went on this tangent for almost 30 minutes and it is very hard to understand because of kanji and complex term. I give you my highest gratitude for clipping and translating this moment. She is really amazing.

I was moved to tears when I watched this during the livestream (half of it was from laughing, but still...). As someone who's passionate about art, Raden is such a blessing to me. Recently I found out that my close friends think that I just pull stuffs out of my ass and make shit up whenever I talked about art all these years. They do art as hobby and that's why we tend to talk about it a lot. To be honest, I still don't know how to process my feelings with this discovery... and it's been almost a month already.

Raden is truly an entertaining character who is so passionate about many unique things That seems to be why she is starting out very strong with the JP audience. It would be such a pity if people who can't understand her stream has this misconception of her ONLY as " the girl who drinks, smokes, and gambles". Yes she mentioned those but its only a (small) part of her stream while she also spend a much bigger chunk of it explaining her passions ( which barely get clipped by others if at all) So thank you for this longer clip!

What's probably more incredible is the dichotomy between her indulgence in "social vices", and giving us lessons on artistic cultures. One can imagine her holding a pipe or sake cup while giving us a talk and it wouldn't even look off

Thank you so much for translating this, Raden is amazing but I can't understand advanced topics in JP yet. I LOVE that she's actually knowledgeable and passionate about this. I'm the opposite of a creative person, I didn't study art and I work in a completely different field but I like art and museums a lot, including modern art. I absolutely need someone like Raden as a drinking buddy and museum buddy because I mostly go alone to avoid reactions like "this is boring" or "haha, why is it considered art, I could draw the same thing easily". Even if people aren't that judgmental they usually don't consider the context and historical background of art works, so they can be like "why is The Black Square considered art" and I try to explain that it only meant what it meant in exactly that timeframe and that cultural landscape, it's not like someone can draw a black square today and be featured in a museum. Or like impressionist works might seem like nothing special to modern viewer's eye but in their time they were innovative to the point of being scandalous. It's not a bad thing in any way because people have very different priorities and interests, but I encounter quite a lot of... shallow, superficial? opinions on different forms of art like paintings, music, movies, books, anime etc. I'm used to it and I'm guilty of it myself sometimes but I deeply respect people who are always willing to dive deeper and even try to convey this stuff to others. For Japanese, Raden might become a whole art news program lol, considering how much info about current exhibitions in museums across the country she dropped.

Me, who went to an art appreciation class: "Yeah, that's right." But, on a serious note, people just forgot what's the most important of enjoying art, it's the appreciation and your enjoyment even if you're just a basic.

need more clips of her like this instead of the generic "I smoke, drink and gamble". She's really passionate and intelligent if you tune in to her streams. Regardless though, her honesty and her ability to stay positive despite the hate is what got me to have her as a favorite from her group.

OMGOMG im so obsessed!! i wish i saw this video waaay before i made my last essay for aesthetics class. basically we had to write and reflect on danto's "death of art" (cue hegelian dialectic and he basically says “All there is at the end is theory, art having finally become vaporized in a dazzle of pure thought about itself, and remaining, as it were, solely as the object of its own theoretical consciousness.”) and blanchot's "original experience" (if i could put it simply, id describe it as "awe" whenever we perceive art) - point being, she explains how to perceive art so well, and how there is more to art than its material aspects. literally if she were my professor in aesthetics id listen to her all day long BUT ANYWAY thank u for choosing to translate this!!! i hope 2 see more of these kinds of clips in the future 🫶

I appreciate you clipping and translating the other parts of her stream. A lot of EN clippers are just talking about the peko/marine comparisons or focusing the whole video around her drinking and her smoking (which is giving off a bad vibe to some people in the EN community). Please keep clipping when she talks about art and museums!

You can tell she's dying to share more of this. Ganbare clippers, first for unintelligible Hajime and now art connoisseur Raden.

As someone whos been studying art at school for around 5 years now, with a good portion of that taking courses on art history and appreciation, she did a great job of breaking down an image for a more analytical look. Very interested to hear more from her. If you want something that can also bring a bit more interest when it comes to Fine Art, I highly suggest Blue Period, it's a manga with 1 season of anime that does a really excellent job of breaking down different artworks, as well as the motivations, and finding the motivations behind people who are interested in doing art as a living. Definitely made me appreciate fine art that's for sure.

Thanks for clipping her! I'd have no chance understanding her in depth on my own but she's very enjoyable!

This kind of topic really reminds me back then when I was still studying at the University. After attending classes for the day, I usually met up with my friends on one of my friend's café nearby. We usually hung out three times a week or more at 5pm eating, drinking coffee, smoking, and talking about many things until his café were closing at 3am. We came from various faculties and majors. I learned a lot about art appreciation (especially paintings) from a friend whose major was Chemical Engineering. Eventhough my major was German Literature, I didn't really have a good grasp on that topic, but when it comes to history and music (especially in classical genre), those two were my forte. Watching Raden explaining about art appreciation really brings back memories. I do really wish to have her as a good friend rambling about things while enjoying an aromatic cup of coffee and a good cigar. Sadly my japanese are still on basic level and it will be difficult for me to understand her on stream. In conclusion, I have another Oshi. Thank you, YAGOO. 🙏 Edit for conclusion: I GOT another Oshi. My bad, English is my second language. Still, Thank you, YAGOO.
