Subject: 'Not Quite Works of Art' - COMPLETE
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Dec 09 19
Art, as we know, is subjective, just as much as the interpretation of a quiz title. For this challenge, we have twelve names of famous paintings and we're going to take them to task.
The idea is simple-- claim a title, and you can use said title as the title of your own quiz, but it can NOT be specifically about the painting you decide to claim. Some will be tougher than others.
Additionally, you can add your own titles to the list, but only if they're submitted by the end of December. Anything beyond that won't be ready in time for the gallery to open.
You may claim more than one, but only one at a time.
Titles Available:
The Persistence of Memory - AcrylicInk
Starry Night - RedHook13
The Last Supper - BigDawgTrivia
American Gothic - Joepetz
Napoleon Crossing the Alps - Trident
The Gleaners - Pitegny
The Birth of Venus - Kankurette
The Potato Eaters - Tiye
Water Lilies - LadyNym
Mona Lisa - Agentofchaos
The Creation of Adam - RedHook13
The School of Athens - Ertrum
Girl Interrupted At Her Music - Godwit
Liberty Leading the People - Bernie73
Shuffleton's Barbershop - Mlcmlc

I've got my eye on a couple or three of them. I suppose we can write in any category, not just Art? Or any category BUT Art? Reply #1. Dec 09 19, 2:02 PM |

You can still write in Art, but the quiz can’t be about the painting you’ve selected. Reply #2. Dec 09 19, 2:32 PM |

Kyle, when you say add your own titles what exactly do you mean? Use an existing painting title or alter a painting title and use that? For example, existing title "The Raft of the Medusa" should be added or "Five Cats and a Canary on a Raft made by Medusa's Hair" is more like it? Thanks Reply #9. Dec 10 19, 5:41 AM |

Use an existing title; no alteration. If you wanted to use the title "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte", you can. Reply #10. Dec 10 19, 6:53 AM |

Oh sorry I misunderstood this in the intro: "Additionally, you can add your own titles to the list". Meaning...we can contribute titles, for others to use? Thanks for clarifying. Reply #12. Dec 10 19, 3:53 PM |

Oh! Well I mean, technically you can name some off here. Someone might be inspired. They'll only be added to the list above if they're claimed. Reply #13. Dec 10 19, 8:24 PM |

I claimed The Persistence of Memory a few days ago but I don't think it's been taken off the list in the first post. Reply #18. Dec 13 19, 2:37 PM |
