Our Project and the Environment

Our project can relate to the environment through movement such as wind. I think when people walk through our project and see strings of light moving, they will think of themselves as wind. In relation to wind pushing an object such as three branches, those who interact with our project will act as wind pushing…

How My Project Interacts with the Environment

My project directly corresponds to the piece’s environment. The dynamic-ness of the outside weather is what brings the idea to life and gives it movement. The weather then, in turn, uses technology to create a new environment indoors. I feel as though the weather is therefore using and usurping technology’s powers to further it’s impact…

Mr. Goldsworthy

In relation to the previous article, there are some similarities that can be drawn from the previous author’s approach to viewing these artists. That similarity is how the artists can augment existing environments. Pollock augmented environments using artificial pigments, and manufactured canvas. Goldsworthy uses only found, natural materials on location. Both artists do augment space,…

my project and the environment

My project is all about signs and how we respond to them. The environment is full of signs. Whether it be a simple street sign giving us driving instructions, an add, or even the weather, we know just how to respond to it. I think the meanings of signs can be implicit or explicit, in…

technology??

As technology being a really big part of this society I think that the work that I am creating, in responsive art, fits right into it. Unlike Goldsworthy this class deals with computers and technology. In his documentary I was really inspired when he was explaining his concept about the ocean tide covering his rock…

Andy Goldsworthy

Andy Goldsworthy’s art perfectly corresponds with the Kaprow article. We just read all about exactly how and when art became open to all sorts of medias and this is obviously manifested in Goldsworthy. He only works with organic things, trees, rocks, leaves, ice, etc, and he creates incredible sculptures and photographs. His pieces also follow…

Alchemies of Art

In this article, Allan Kaprow attempts to assert that, and describe how, Jackson Pollock revolutionized art-making. He said that Pollock destroyed painting by turning it into a ritual; dehumanizing and liberating it. At the same time, Pollock stayed true to a few painting traditions, such as the idea of quality of marks. The article states…

Documentary

I believe the documentary we saw relates to the reading because of the thought process that went into the creation of the pieces. It’s a simple idea, but here me out. I think that both artists have some sort of idea in their heads, they don’t simply just do it. There is a formula to…

My Project

I feel that my project connects to the environment by the emotions portrayed in the narrative. I believe the colors and sounds have a very strong impact on a person because it “warms” the room which the piece is in up in a strange way. That the feeling that something so bright can be in…

Mr. Pollock

Jackson Pollock is an artists who challenges all of art’s principle’s in terms of what is considered to be talented execution and content. His artwork is amazing to some and grotesque to others. Truly a, “love it or hate it” artist. His artwork of layered paint splatters rivals works of Da Vinci in terms of…

Jackson Pollock reading

Overall, I thought the article had a lot of interesting ideas and facts of Jackson Pollock. For an example the article states, “He new the difference between a good gesture and a bad one.” I think this is very hard for artists to distinguish in their work, and for him to be able to do…

Reading

I found the article about Jackson Pollack very interesting. It was well detailed and was very well written. I like hearing pieces about artists and find what people have to say very fascinating. The only problem I had was the picture links. Either the article was kind of old or the links themselves were broken…
