SET FOUR - ROUND ONE - MATCH EIGHT

"Fountain" (1917 - Marcel Duchamp) / "Judith Slaying Holofernes" (c. 1620 - Artemisia Gentileschi)

FOUNTAIN: I know, I know, if this was something you saw today in an art museum, it would be cliche and a little cringey, but this was not from 2023! Its from 1917, in France. In context, it is such a punk piece of work, such a fucking, fuck you to art elitism. While modern art movements were growing in Europe, France had a very real tension between older, traditional styles of art and the growing newer, less realistic and more abstract schools. There was a clear delineation between institutional traditional styles and the newer styles, whose artists were often working on the periphery or entirely outside of french art circles. So by putting this in a museum - saying yeah, this urinal is just as worthy as your shit to be here. Such a fuck you! It got rejected from several exhibitions for being "immoral and vulgar" and "a plagiarised object, or rather a commercial piece of plumbing art." And then the immoral, vulgar (and of course, why is this immoral or vulgar? and why are the objects of plumbers excluded from being art) piece got exhibited!

Our current understandings of art might not need this sort of philosophical challenge to "what is allowed to be art," but in 1917, the French art world definitely did (@travelingsmithy)

JUDITH SLAYING HOLOFERNES: This is one of my favorite Baroque/Renaissance paintings ever. First, it has that dynamic and theatrical lighting you get with Baroque pieces, where the background is dark and unimportant and the scene has very dramatic and intense lighting. Second, its so visceral, so violent in a way that women typically were not allowed to be in art. Judith is shown as powerful and strong, and its the same with her maidservant Abra (thanks wikipedia). Holofernes was clearly fighting back but was overcome by the two, there is blood splattered all over the bed, Judith has got her hands gripping his hair and just dragging the knife through his throat. 

The context to the scene, is that this is retribution for Holofernes raping Judith, that she is getting her revenge and justice. She is a fully active participant, this is her decision and action, and its just so clear in the painting. For reference, this is Carvaggio's version and it is so different. There is a distance and fakeness to the scene, where the women are timid and almost uninvolved in the violence. Here that could not be less of the case. Judith and Abra are fully in the scene, with the strain of the murder clearly showing in their figures. It is such a far cry from the typical depiction of women in this era of art, from their form to their expressions to their actions. There's a level of personhood that is typically denied to women that is present here, the painter allowing the figures to be present in the violence of the scene, to be full actors and perpetrators, knowledgeable and determined. 

On its own, it stands as an incredibly evocative piece of art. In comparison to other takes on this same scene, it completely rises above the rest (@travelingsmithy)

("Fountain" is a sculpture by French artist Duchamp that consists of a porcelain urinal signed "R. Mutt". The original was lost, but about 15 replicas exist worldwide.

"Judith Slaying Holofernes" is an oil on canvas painting by Italian artist Artemisia Gentileschi. It measures 6′ 6″ x 5′ 4″ (158.8 cm × 125.5 cm) and is located in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.)

[rvb-relationship-royale]

I'm sorry but doesn't including popular ships kind of defeat the point? Of course they are going to defeat crackships and rarepairs

Hi anon, popular ships do tend to see more success in poll tournaments, but there can be underdogs and dark horses in any matchup, which is the point of allowing their inclusion! Additionally, as I mentioned, one of the poll structure options I'm considering would have the most popular submissions going against each other first- leaving more room for success amongst rarer ships. If that's something you want to see, feel free to vote for it when the poll is made available tonight.

But yes, ultimately, the most popular ships are most likely to win, because this is a popularity contest. If our current polls see success, I'd be willing to do a dedicated poll for rarepairs and/or crackships- but as it stands, that's not what this poll is. I'm including all ships, big and small, because that's what I promised at the beginning.

#the thing I've found about the rvb fandom in these tournaments so far is that folks can really surprise you with their efforts #I wouldn't discount anyone the chance to win #rvb relationship royale #ask #also I'm not the final authority on what a popular ship is because I was expecting to be inundated with grimmons submissions #and instead chucker has been most submitted for most of the poll's duration #so this is clearly something that needs an intersubjective determination

How many warrior cats, chief.

*laughs nervously*

I have counted 44. I may have counted it wrong because the name Warrior cats and its variations are ingrained on my retina at this point. This is (obviously) the most popular fandom, which is to be expected seeing how its literally all cats. I think there are 20 separate cats just from this fandom alone. I will have to do something about it, because oh boi this is a full bracket on it's own innit? :D

#I don't have anything against warrior cats btw and it's a very valid cat fandom #I'm just very much amazed at the sheer amount of submissions from this fandom #while at the same time only one of them is in the top 5 most popular character suggestions #cat asks

Skie: Ah yes, of course. In that case, I will have a glass of bordeaux, and a crêpe.

Jaheira: We have stew.

Skie: *sigh* I suppose that will suffice yet again.
