Because he didn’t use the photos and illustration for the computer. He used any other way to representative the design. We always use the computer to create the design,  We don’t ofter try to use any other materials and other way to create. 

This design uses the one line to create the image. The image had lots of stories to tell. He uses the ancient symbol to representative about the ancient times. This is a nice design because when I saw this design, I think he give me lots of information to tell me.

Aboriginal Motifs


Functions and Philosophies


1. Respecting
The rights of Indigenous people to own and control their heritage, including Indigenous images, designs, stories and other cultural expressions, should be respected. Customs and protocols for respect vary widely across the many and diverse communities of Indigenous Australian people. Respecting Indigenous rights to cultural heritage includes.
We should respect the indigenous artists.

Indigenous control
Indigenous people have the right to self-determination in their cultural affairs and the expression of their cultural material. There are many ways in which this right can be respected in the creation, production and exhibition of art. One significant way is to discuss how Indigenous Control over a project will be exercised.  

2. Communication, consultation and consent
Communication and consultation are important in Indigenous visual arts projects. Consent is necessary for the reproduction of Indigenous visual arts, and if traditional communal designs are included, consent may be required from traditional owners.
There may be requirements to consult with the traditional custodians and community members, as well as the artist, for material that is communally owned ritual knowledge. This includes depiction of creation beings
or images. There may also be one or more groups that have custodianship of an image or other heritage items. Consultation with and consent from each identified group should be sought.

Authenticity
Authenticity refers to the cultural provenance of an artwork. This is often a complex inquiry. In this guide, authenticity may involve reference to whether an Indigenous person produced the artwork; and whether it was produced with proper regard to Indigenous customary law. For example, only an artist who has the right to depict imagery under customary laws may paint some Anaheim Land language group designs.

Moral rights and Issues
If I wanted to just reference Aboriginal motifs, I would have to get permission from the owner. Because the Aboriginal motifs is a trademark. It is important to discuss any material changes of artwork, and get the consent of the artist in writing. 
The Moral Rights Amendments to the Copyright Act provide some new ways to challenge inappropriate treatment of Indigenous artworks.
These new laws provide the following rights to artists:
1. The right to be attributed as the artist– Artists can require their names be clearly and prominently reproduced alongside all reproductions 
2. The right not to have work falsely attributed to another artist – Artists can take action against parties who falsely attribute others as the creators of their works.
3. The right of integrity – Artists can take action against parties who subject their works to inappropriate treatment.

Native American Motifs

Golden State Warriors

The team was first established in 1946, as the Philadelphia Warriors, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where the franchise won the championship in the inaugural season of the Basketball Association of America (BAA), the league that would eventually become the National Basketball Association.






Logo History

1946–1962: The Warriors were founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1946 as the Philadelphia Warriors, a charter member of the Basketball Association of America.

In 1962, Franklin Mieuli purchased the majority shares of the team and relocated the franchise to the San Francisco Bay Area, renaming them the San Francisco Warriors. The Warriors changed their name to the Golden State Warriors for the 1971-72 seasons.

1987–1997: Change the logo
1997–2004: Change the logo
2010: New logo





Logo Concept:

The Warriors’ new primary logo salutes the team’s Bay Area past and links to the exciting prospects of the organization’s future. A silhouette of the yet-to-be-completed Eastern Span of the Bay Bridge is the focal point of the design and a direct spin-off of “The City” logo, one of the most popular emblems in the history of professional sports. Depth was added to the circular band portion of the logo – taken directly from the original model – to provide a modern customisation of the graphic design. The simple, yet sleek, design of the Warriors new logo is the result of an 18-month creative and marketing collaboration between the Warriors, the National Basketball Association and adidas – the official outfitter of the NBA. Then, the design a new look that was clean and traditional in that same spirit.



















Motifs
In the 1946 -1962, the Philadelphia is a Warriors font of the term. 
In 1962, Franklin Mieuli purchased the majority shares of the team and relocated the franchise to the San Francisco Bay Area, renaming them the San Francisco Warriors. The Warriors changed their name to the Golden State Warriors for the 1971–72 seasons.

I think the new logo isn’t a good logo. It is because the logo isn’t enough to show the person that is a basketball team logo. But I just think the logo should a strong concept. But the logo has eye touching.

The club’s traditional guernsey colours are white guernseys with navy blue hoops, navy shorts and navy and white hooped socks and the team song is “We Are Geelong”. The club’s nickname, the ‘Cats’, was first used in 1923 after a run of losses prompted a local cartoonist to suggest that the club needed a black cat to bring it good luck.

1.Action painting

Action painting, sometimes called “gestural abstraction”, is a style of painting in which paint is spontaneously dribbled, splashed or smeared onto the canvas, rather than being carefully applied. The resulting work often emphasizes the physical act of painting itself as an essential aspect of the finished work or concern of its artist. There is closely associated with abstract expressionism.
This style is from the 1940s until the early 1960s. There often drawn between the American action painting and the French tachisme.
The style is a blur and asymmetry.
The American critic Harold Rosenberg coined the term in 1952, and the aesthetic perspective of New York School painters and critics.  The earlier critics sympathetic to their cause, focused on their works “ abjectness”.
Over the next two decades, Rosenbarg’s redefinition of art as an a sct rather than an object, as a process rather than a product, was influential, and laid the foundation for a number of major art movements from Happenings and Fluxus to Conceptual . Performance art, Installation art and Earth Art.

4.Folk art


 Folk art encompasses art produced from an indigenous culture or by peasants or other laboring tradespeople. Folk art is primarily utilitarian and decorative rather than purely aesthetic.
 As a phenomenon that can chronicle a move towards civilization yet rapidly diminish with modernity, industrialization, or outside influence, the nature of folk art is specific to its particular culture.

5.Neo-Dada

Neo-Dada is a label applied primarily to audio and visual art that has similarities in method or intent to earlier Dada artwork.
The term was popularized by Barbara Rose in the 1960s and refers primarily, although not exclusively, to a group of artwork created in that and the preceding decade.
Dada is an anti-art movement, so the Neo-Dadaists promoted their anti-aesthetic agenda. It didn't hurt that Duchamp happened to have moved from Paris to New York and was sharing his ideologies with artistic peers. Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns quickly picked up on the philosophy of incorporating nontraditional elements in artwork as they began creating collages and assemblages with found materials.

7. Figurative art


Figurative art, sometimes written as figurative, describes artwork—particularly paintings and sculptures—which are clearly derived from real object sources, and are therefore by definition representational.  
“Since the arrival of abstract art the term figurative has been used to refer to any form of modern art that retains strong references to the real world."
Painting and sculpture can therefore be divided into the categories of figurative, representational and abstract, although, strictly speaking, abstract art is derived (or abstracted) from a figurative or other natural source. However, the term is sometimes used as a synonym for non-representational art and non-objective art, i.e. art which has no derivation from figures or objects.

8.Pop Art

Pop art is an art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s in Britain and in the late 1950s in the United States.Pop art challenged tradition by asserting that an artist's use of the mass-produced visual commodities of popular culture is contiguous with the perspective of fine art. Pop removes the material from its context and isolates the object, or combines it with other objects, for contemplation. The concept of pop art refers not as much to the art itself as to the attitudes that led to it.

9.Mingei
Mingei is the Japanese folk art movement, was developed in the late 1920s and 1930s in Japan. Its founding father was Yanagi Sōetsu (1889–1961).
The philosophical pillar of mingei is “hand-crafted art of ordinary people” (民衆的な工芸 (minshū-teki-na kōgei?)). Yanagi Sōetsu discovered beauty in everyday ordinary and utilitarian objects created by nameless and unknown craftsmen. According to Yanagi, utilitarian objects made by the common people are “beyond beauty and ugliness”. Below are a few criteria of mingei art and crafts:


    * made by anonymous crafts people
    * produced by hand in quantity
    * inexpensive
    * used by the masses
    * functional in daily life
    * representative of the regions in which they were produced.

10.Symbolism

Symbolism was a late nineteenth-century art movement of French, Russian and Belgian origin in poetry and other arts. In literature, the movement had its roots in Les Fleurs du mal (The Flowers of Evil, 1857) by Charles Baudelaire.

Symbolism in art represents an outgrowth of the darker, gothic side of Romanticism; but where Romanticism was impetuous and rebellious, symbolist art was static and hieratic.They believed that art should aim to capture more absolute truths which could only be accessed by indirect methods.
