Gallery Visits

Perspective Eye Gallery
It was really interesting to see how we affect the environment with plastics and it was rather sad to see how much we actually harm other things inadvertently. Makes you wonder how many things you've affected.


BFA Illustration Show

I went to crown commons this morning to check out the illustration BFA show must say I was very impressed. It was really nice to see that companies were already taking a look a students for work.

Cai Guo-Qiang: Art 21

I really like the way that Gou-Qiang uses fire works and weak explosives in his work, and how unsettlingly calm he is about it. It really helps speak about the disarray seen in his countries' government. The other works were a little bit odd, such as the bizarre suspended cars.

Class Notes: Wednesday

When we we're watching the videos I noticed that a lot of things in Mexican and Native American culture cross over and I'm wondering if are ignorant to just group them together, I'm sure that both sides get rather irritated with this if that is the case.

Class Notes: Monday

We took a look at political posters for the up and coming political project as well as had several good discussions related to people that have affected politics recently, such as Bill Cosby and George Takei.

Also I figured out politics is a very very broad topic.

Class Notes: Monday

  • Just a short one today. The stretches and movement exercises really helped out self esteem about doing the whole moment portion of the project and it looked like it help some other people too.

For art 21 this time I looked at Jeff Koons. He had a very short 3 minuet video show casing his pieces and his use of the bizarreness and juxtaposition really showcased how creative ideas are part of your own internal fantasy and I appreciated this outlook on fantasy.
