You might know the famous creations of MC Escher, but do you know where he found much of his inspiration for those amazing tessellations?
The answer will take us to Spain, Damascus, and the Cincinnati Art Museum. We end this one back at the studio with a project blending Escher and Islamic Art!

3:27 is me rolling into my Art History exam today coming to slay after watching these videos
Bitchmetoo DaFuq Haha! Awesome, and glad I could help!🙌🙌
Thank you for this nice and full of information video.
This Damascus room is all over the old city of Damascus there you can see a lot of breathtaking rooms.
I really wish I could see your finished artwork at the end of these videos. Even if its only a simple slide during the credits of the final product! This would allow the rest of the video to be edited while you finish the project!
Excellent video! The intricate designs are so cool.
I LOVE your artrageous videos! I show them to my elementary school art students and they are so engaged and love seeing them!
So fantastic to hear! Truly appreciate your support. Love knowing these are helping educators like you. Where do you teach? Thanks again for the feedback!
Such beautiful art the islamic art , it's so beautiful 🍀
Agree! Islamic art is one of my favorites. I had the chance to visit Morocco a few years ago and just fell in love with all the geometric designs. Thanks for the watching, and would super appreciate sharing and subscribing!
me sitting here watching this video after my art teacher put it on google classroom:👁👄👁
same
what school u got to

Awesome video, well put together ! Lots of good info
Super appreciate it! Thanks for the feedback, and for watching and subscribing!
Love this one Nate!!!
Super appreciate it! Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
Terribel voice and musick,why, why, please it is so beautiful this art.
Not sure what to do about my voice, it's the one I was given:/ Overall, adding music is never easy, but for each episode it's necessary to add.
Outrageous!!
enjoyed your video so much! Thank you! I'm another leftie using the same pencil lol
You are so welcome!
*casually rides a unicycle to the art museum*
From my understanding, only 16 of the 17 wallpaper groupings are on display at the Alhambra...
Well come to Islamic art where geometry meets architecture and their marriage officiates by non other than mathematics himself
Expertly stated! I LOVE Islamic art and architecture ever since visiting Morocco and Tunisia. Super appreciate the feedback, and hope you subscribe!
3:27 what kinda of a bicycle is that ?
That would be a unicycle! I used to ride it all the time when I was an art teacher. I rode it pretty often in episodes early on, but carrying it around became a bit of a pain:/ Thanks for the feedback, subscribing, and sharing!
You mentioned Escher to have been left handed then a depiction of him drawing using his right hand?
Yep, he was definitely left-handed! It just so happens that he was drawing his right hand in that picture. Great question, and thanks for the feedback!
Also some of what you called tessellations, are in fact not tessellations
His Design are inspired to nature he love the subject of transfer form human construction how became by the nature comes to sky and finish with invisible white or light.
Creative art not related to culture if related it's come to traditional art not creative .so understand art the great its self a caulture that you have to know the visual forms transfer with a close relation to nature with human creation .
It's "Islam" not "Izlam" it's just like pronouncing "Christian" "Chrizhian".
I dont think that makes a difference.
And btw no one says Chriszhain
Or like Chrig-chin
What role does cultural appropriation play in this piece?
i know i'm late but if you're still interested nothing you have seen in the video is cultural appropriation. if you give full credit to source and to the culture and respect the culture and then create something inspired by that culture there is nothing wrong with that. cultural appropriation is when you take something from another culture and then present it as your own thing and call it something else just like plagiarism.

It's art people take inspiration from every where to create art. What has cultural appropriation got to do with it? Paint what ever you want to paint and stop trying to complivlcate things.
who else is here from google classroom haha
Haha! Was this a video a teacher posted? Just curious! Thanks for the feedback and for subscribing!
@Ava Marcou Nice! Thanks for letting me know!
Ya I can write Arabic and read the Quran
That’s awesome! Thanks for the feedback and for watching!
before watching the video: yes of course he did, he said so himself.
Just watch the Penrose documentary : ua-cam.com/video/f7kW8xd8p4s/v-deo.html
Its ridiculous to say he wasnt inspired by islamic art when he said so himself.
Inevitable Crafts Lab hmm, well, some (not all) may know this, but not the depth or background. Hopefully you got something out of it. It not, I’ll just assume you are an Escher expert! Either way thanks for watching!
@@artrageousnate no it just happend that i watched the documentary a few days ago hehe
@@inevitablecraftslab Haha! Well, then your comment makes complete sense!
@@artrageousnate i just cant stand this islamophobic stuff as if islamic tiles where bad because they are islamic :)
❤️
Optical idea he invented then optical artist followed his idea. It's the conclusion.
his optical illusions wher inspired by penrose, there is a cool documentary with penroses son about that
He was inspired by science, not by relegion. Mathematics, geometry, physics etc. He was also inspired by Penrose.
elefunk13 Very true. I definitely don’t think he was looking for religious inspiration, but in many Islamic traditions (and other religions as well,) art and religion go hand-in-hand. Some of the most amazing Islamic, highly geometric designs are found in mosques. Definitely makes since that he was also inspired by Penrose too! Thanks for the feedback!
🤣🤣🤣🤷🏻♂️
No never he was inspired by Islamic art he create a new idea after his work it's became the illusion or optical art
He was a great moment artist it's true.
jealous hindu
no.
he himself said he was inpired by islamic art when visiting alhambra, he even went back to study it more.
The optical illusions where inspired by penrose and penroses son.
Why dont you read about Eschers work or Penroses work or their letter conversation?
Penroses Son and Escher gave numerious interviews about that.
@@reserachtv2766 hehe
everyone seems to be jealous in this comment section, not one read any letters from Escher and Penrose where he explained how he got inspired in Alhambra... this is so ridiculous hehe
Your opinion dsnt matter
no, no he wasn't inspired by Islamic art.....it was crystal formations that initially inspired him. …….not sure if Islamic artists were inspired by crystal structure or if they were influenced by something else.
J Anderson Actually, yes he was. This isn’t a story I made up, these are facts I had to have confirmed by his estate. Before doing the research I didn’t know he had been influenced by Islamic art either. I’m sure he was also inspired by crystal structures. I’ll definitely check into that. You could argue just about any geometric design is inspired by nature. Thanks for the feedback!

I dont think he was "inspired" by the Islamic art, now he may have been influenced by it after the fact , or he may have noticed the similarities. But as I understand it, his initial interest and inspiration came from looking at the various crystal structures. That's what made him so unique …..the science and math aspect merged perfectly with the creative art part. ….a truly left brain/right brain genius.
Nope, he studied Islamic art exclusively first. Later, after uncovering much of the geometric secrets of Islamic art, he sent his drawings to his brother, who later wrote him and said, "hey I know what that is. Ever talk to a mathematician? You should."
He studied Islamic art first, it was his brother who introduced him to a diagram in a magazine explaining crystal structures in a Euclidean format. Once he connected the 2, he began speaking with mathematicians about what he had uncovered
Islamic Art??? Religion is opposite the art. Since when religious Mollahs / preachers or Taliban became art lover? I haven't heard of Christian art or Jewish art or Boudaism art... Have you heard?? Arts came from civilizations and civilized people with different caltures... You in the west need to change your mind by keep saying Islamic Art, Islamic civilization... Ideologies and religions has nothing to do with art. You must refer to the region with specified civilization...
like Roman civilization, Greek civilization, Arab civilization, Egypt civilization, Persian civilization, Chinese civilization, Indian civilization...
The tile work in Isfahan belong to Persian civilization and calture.
Please stop mixing arts with religion and ideology.
