IELTS Speaking Part 2 Describe A Work Of Art

You should say:

• what the piece of art is
• where and when you saw it
• what it looks like or what it show
• and explain why you like this piece of art.

 

Mẫu trả lời:

Earlier this year, I was fortunate enough to visit Florence in Italy. When I was there, I spent a day exploring the Uffizi Gallery, which has one of the best art collections in the world. I walked around the whole gallery and took in thousands of paintings and sculptures, but I suppose the one that really captured my imagination was Sandra Botticelli’s painting, “The Birth of Venus.”

This is a large oil painting dating from, I think, the 15th century. It is one of the world’s most famous paintings and is considered an icon of the Italian renaissance. Although it is an Italian painting, the subject matter is Greek mythology. The nude female figure at the center of the painting is Venus, a goddess worshiped by the ancient Greeks. She is riding a giant scallop shell, which is what makes the scene so unusual and memorable. The painting is not very realistic, of course, this was before artists began trying to capture perspective and light as they appear in reality.

Instead, the painting is intended to tell a story and make the viewer feel a certain way. I like it because it is captivating when you look at Botticelli’s work, you are drawn into the painting and you feel curious about the central character.

It makes you wonder where she is going and what will happen, as well as the significance of the various objects and people around her. Like many great paintings, I could sit and marvel at this all day.

Mẫu trả lời:

One of my favourite pieces of art is called The Fighting Temeraire, by an artist called Turner.

It is an oil painting of a large old-fashioned battleship, the Temeraire, being towed back to harbor at sunset with all of its sails down so it can be towed by the tugboat. To be honest, I can’t really remember when I first saw this painting because it is one of the most famous paintings in Britain so I probably saw a picture of it in a book. I have only ever seen the original painting once, in the National Gallery in London, where I was a bit surprised to find that it was quite a lot smaller than I expected it to be.

 

I wish I knew more about this painting really. I think it was painted in the 1830s or thereabouts. As far as I know, this picture shows the ship being taken on its last journey, after it had been wrecked during a battle. One of the things I love about this painting is the way that Turner, the artist, uses impressions and light. There are hardly any lines in the painting, so everything is a kind of haze, even the shoreline between the water and the sandy river bank. I have heard that Turner’s style had a big influence on French Impressionist painters, such as Monet. Another thing I find fascinating about this painting is the sunset. Turner and other artists at the time often painted very dramatic sunsets and it is now believed that the skies they could see really were this dramatic, because a huge volcano had erupted in Indonesia shortly before that time and the ash cloud from the volcano that spread around the world would have made the sunsets and skies much more colourful, and the atmosphere seem hazier.

 

So it’s like seeing a period of past natural history through the eyes of the artist.

Mẫu trả lời:

Today I would like to tell you about one of the most well-known paintings in the world, which is also my personal favourite, the portrait of Mona Lisa. You know, the painting was created by Leonardo da Vinci, the famous Italian artist from the 15th century. When I first saw this painting in one of my high school textbooks, I just couldn’t take my eyes off it due to some mysterious attractiveness.

At first sight, all I noticed in the painting was a long-haired woman with a friendly smile on her face, which was quite round, and she had no eyebrows either. The more I looked at it though, the more I felt like she was actually smiling at me.

Some people have claimed that Mona Lisa was simply an imaginary character while others have believed that she was actually Leonardo’s wife. Honestly, it doesn’t really matter to me though because I think that the Mona Lisa is a masterpiece that attracts people with that magical smile. This is also one of the main reasons why I am a fan of the painting.

In terms of the actual truths behind this portrait though, I guess we may never know, but I think that secrets make everything all the more intriguing.

Before I dare to say a word about this particular topic, I must admit that I am no “art enthusiast” or “aesthete” who can analyze or critique any artwork. So, please bear with me and be patient. And thank you for this interesting topic.

Anyway, the artwork, or a painting rather, I want to talk about is of a “Lone flying bird” under the sky on a bright, sunny day. Initially, I couldn’t really make much of this painting. But when I asked the guide in that city art gallery, which I visited with my friends a year ago, about the “artwork”, she told me that it was a “watercolour painting” and that the painting was done by an “autistic” 9 years old boy.

By the way, the section of that city art gallery, which I was visiting at that time, was dedicated and assigned only for the paintings and artworks of young and gifted children of my city, apparently because the city authority wanted to encourage their young and gifted kids to learn and appreciate the arts. However, among many other beautiful looking artworks, this particular piece caught my eye, mainly because it had some truly amazing colour combinations and that too came from a 9 years old autistic young boy!

In fact, the light pink colour of the sky and the flying bird in blue colour matched so perfectly with the crystal clear blue water of the ocean underneath, as if the bluebird (a “great blue heron”) - so tiny in comparison with the ocean - was competing with the sky for attention, and also that it couldn’t possibly be more beautiful looking than the bird! Such awesome paint!

Anyway, I like the artwork so much, mainly because it was so simple and yet so deep in meaning in the sense that it was able to capture the imagination of a gifted and young kid. I like it also because it portrayed the unadulterated beauty of mother nature by playing with some simple colours.

 

 Describe a piece of artwork by a famous person

• What the artwork was
• Where and when you saw it
• How it made you feel

 

Mẫu trả lời:

One memorable piece of artwork that has left a lasting impression on me is “Starry Night” by Vincent van Gogh. I had the opportunity to see this iconic painting at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City a few years ago. It was during a summer vacation when I visited the museum with my family. When I stood in front of “Starry Night,” I was immediately captivated by the vibrant colors and swirling brushstrokes. The painting depicts a nocturnal scene with a mesmerizing sky filled with stars and a small village below. The way van Gogh portrayed the movement and energy of the night sky was truly remarkable.

As I gazed at the artwork, I felt a sense of tranquility and wonder. The painting seemed to transport me into another world, as if I was standing beneath that very sky, observing its magnificence. The vivid colors and dynamic brushwork created a sense of movement and depth, making the painting come alive.

This artwork is particularly memorable to me because it showcased van Gogh’s unique artistic style and his ability to convey emotions through his work. “Starry Night” is not only visually stunning but also evokes a profound sense of awe and inspiration. It reminded me of the power of art to transcend boundaries and touch the depths of our souls.

Overall, the experience of seeing “Starry Night” was truly unforgettable. It deepened my appreciation for van Gogh’s genius and the transformative nature of art. It serves as a constant reminder of the beauty and emotional impact that art can have on our lives.

 

IELTS Speaking Art – Part 3

 

• Do you think that art is as important as academic subjects when it comes to educating children?

Answer: Pablo Picasso once said that “every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up”. Therefore, offering children the much-needed space to create, to explore and to express themselves through art is absolutely important so that a holistic approach to education can be ensured. However, the purpose of art as academic subjects is not, and should not be, taught just to produce some “world-class artists”, but to provide a means of exploring feelings and experiences and expressing them beautifully which “words”, that we use on a regular basis, can’t do alone. This is something that every child can experience and benefit from.  In other words, the children should be able to find the true value of “art” in the process itself as well, not only in the “end product”.

 

 

• What are the advantages and disadvantages of art education?

Answer: There are a number of advantages of art education. In fact, many studies suggest that art education has many social and academic benefits to students as it promotes self-directed learning and sharpens creative problem-solving skills and critical thinking. The arts provide challenges for learners at all levels by connecting students with their own culture as well as with the rest of the world. Studies also suggest that Integrating art education with other disciplines helps reach the students who otherwise wouldn’t feel “engaged” and interested in class works.

 

However, there are some disadvantages to art education as well. Learning art can be time-consuming and sometimes can take “decadesdecade” to succeed in the “business” of art. Another major disadvantage of art is, people, in general, don’t exactly understand the idea of “art”, and therefore, don’t exactly learn to “appreciate” art, whether it is drama, painting, or music, which can be really depressing and de-motivating for the aspiring artists.

 

 

•  Why do you think some people enjoy looking at paintings and sculptures and others do not?

Answer: The fact thatfact, that some people enjoy looking at paintings and sculptures while others don’t, can be attributed primarily, in my opinion, to how much “art education” one has received. Besides, this is also an issue of “sensibility” and how emotionally we get triggered by certain artworks. In fact, there is a theory which explains that because colours, shapes, sounds and thoughts are all waves form, and the more we are sensitive to these kinds of waves, the better we can understand an emotional message, considering that a piece of painting or sculpture essentially is an expression of an emotion, or transmit it. Besides, another “theory” suggests that most “visually intelligent” people love art while people who cannot concentrate upon a single detail for more than 10 seconds cannot enjoy art.

 

 

• What are the advantages and disadvantages of being an artist?

Answer: On a metaphysical level, an advantage of being an artist is that he/she has a heightened sensitivity to the surroundings and being able to nurture it with a childlike playfulness towards experiences throughout the entire life by having the satisfaction by creating something “beautiful and special”. But on a practical level, being an artist allows one to become his or her own “boss” without having to worry about ‘satisfying’ others.

 

However, one of the major disadvantages of being an artist is that he/she is not financially solvent most of the timetimes, and he/she has to rely on some other sources of income to survive. And, as a result, an artist has no or a very limited social life. Another disadvantage of being an artist is that mostis most people don’t take “art” as an actual “profession” which can be equally demoralizing and frustrating for a person with a sense of “self-respect”.

 

 

• Do you think that some people are naturally better artists than others?

Answer: Yes, I do think that some people are naturally better artists than others, just like somebody is better in science and mathematics academically, primarily because of their genetic structure and disposition towards “creativity”. In fact, it is my opinion that it is the “genetic disposition” of some children who spent much of their time in their childhood by engaging in creative activity, whether it was drawing or singing, or whatever that they enjoyed, in order to develop their skills from the early years of their lives in the process of play.

 

Of course, some people would choose to argue that it is their “passion” that drives them to become “better” artists. But, even if I agree with them to some extent just for the “sake of debate”, I would still argue that if it is not for their “natural inclination or disposition”, they wouldn’t be able to turn themselves into some “better” artists.
