I'll be sure to check it out. . . .<BR/><BR/>Fouad, while it is true that "anyone can do just about anything" getting recognized isn't so easy. If it was, art wouldn't be such a tough field to succeed in. There is more to these works, and that "more" makes all the difference.Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14919523046521696675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17520917.post-1134294386255432522005-12-11T11:46:00.000+02:002005-12-11T11:46:00.000+02:00For a student of art, it is art, and a clever stat...For a student of art, it is art, and a clever statement at that. For everyone else, it's just another monstrosity you'd never put in your house.<BR/><BR/>I have difficulty respecting this sort of art, because it's so irrelevant outside the scope of a gallery. It reminds me of overly self-referential rap lyrics — the sort that boil down to nothing more than "I'm a badass, 'cause I rock the house and you can't handle it."<BR/><BR/>My reaction?

Call it conceptual representation, assemblage, something, I don't know. The use of art as too emcompassing an umbrella has bastardized artistic creation. The slippery slope is that anyone can do just about anything and get acclaimed through the intellectual overinterpretation of unintentional randomness really...Fouadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04122926500584262789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17520917.post-1134188904398370232005-12-10T06:28:00.000+02:002005-12-10T06:28:00.000+02:00I don't especially like this work either.

It is interesting how art can make it's point without being "pretty". I am taking a beginner's fibers class next semester and am really interested to see what projects they have us do. I know that in the past people have made their own paper and died fabric with things like beetles. Apparently, the teacher told them that beetle juice is used to colorize things like strawberry yogurt.
