Research in progress
After tutorials, I view some works and write down some key points that I interested in.
ARTIST :
Allan McCollum
-frame
-reveal social game of looking art, selling, and making art through theoretical installations of mass-produced objects.
Shirley Kaneda
-abstract paintings are in themselves ‘read’.
-frame the moment in a continuum
Polly Apfelbaum
-specific object
-flatland
-the balancing of the playful and the serious
Dona Nelson
-two-sided paintings
-the idea of something spontaneous being rendered slowly and meticulously
-the dialogue between paintings
-dreams and memories (indirect way)
-pure play
Patricia Treib
-resemble puzzle pieces
-a correspondence to a process of memory
-every time you remember something, it’s not the previous memory. It’s recreated.
-Proust
-focus on the non-spaces, or the little spaces between things.
Katharina Grosse
-site-specific works
-artificial color
-color takes away the boundary of the object
-painting - installation - sculpture
Franz Ackermann
-mental maps
-break clear of given boundaries
-all elements are brought together to play off one another in order to create an effect of excess in developing complex visual narratives
