Rob Pruitt - The link to this picture doesn't work.Tim Gardner - Don't care for it. Looks Photoshopped. Is that the point?Walton Ford - I like this one a lot, it's my favorite of the bunch. Frightening and attractive, there's a lot to look at here.Robert Longo - I'm not sure about this one because I'm not sure what the medium is. Is it photography? Painting?Johnathon Meese - Doesn't seem very modern, but it makes me think of the Fall's album art, so I'll give it points for that. Actually, I think I like this one.Lewitt - Not sure what I'm supposed to be looking at in the photo here, the painting? It's attractive but not very interesting to me.Sandback - I'm not big on minimalist sculpture, sorry. It would probably be more interesting in person rather than in a tiny photo.Root - Again, it's attractive but not very interesting. I like it more than the Lewitt though, since there's an "object" surrounded by space rather than just connected color-shapes. I like its crispness.Pierson - Eh, "shocking." Is the point the contrast between subject and medium? Seems kind of stale. Technically impressive though.Baltz - I like this one too. Can't tell if it's a photo or painting, but it's calming.

IIRC, for that series of B&W portraits, he used spray paint and stencils. In fact, until I was looking for pictures of the skaters (which I had seen years ago) and the pigs (which I saw recently), I didn't know that they were by the same person.

Having started doing research this week, let me just say: : D
Let me add to this thread: Alfredo Jaar
Whereas shoving pictures of War Torn 3rd World labourers in front of you, national geographic style, would be so glib and heavy handed as to render it ineffectual as art, his use of these types of images, via his arrangement of them (in mirrors, light boxes, etc.) and the according way that they are hence seen by and related to by gallery goes, I think, is laudable (of course I get so caught up in the technique that I forget the content, but that's a whole other matter).

My favorite painter is an oil painter named Thomas PaquetteMaybe you have to see this guys work in person before you can realize or truly appreciate the beauty of itI luckily had a random encounter with his paintings on exhibit when I was at collegeI would describe his work as having profound beauty, grace and subtletyBut to use words from a press quote on his website: "Look into the art, and be drawn into the world of subtle drama and dramatic beauty he finds in ordinary places. All of the light, darkness and shadow—as well as the insinuation of hue and tone—in nature and life are expressed."http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/8172/010springinprovence2z.jpghttp://www.thomaspaquette.com/paintings/096/springbirchz.JPG

the de kooning exhibition at moma was fascinating. like it was so much a better exhibition than he was a painter, bc it was so amazing to see how he grew and changed & eventually pared down, through necessity, almost as something apart from how much i liked his work.
― quick brown fox triangle (schlump), Monday, 23 January 2012 11:30 (twelve years ago) link
This summer I realized that I think I like de koonings black and white paintings more than his colour ones, which is kind of shocking since I'm a huge chromophile.
― Frasier Ramon (EDB), Monday, 23 January 2012 12:41 (twelve years ago) link
i dont know why i dont like de kooning! i am trying to articulate it because i dont really have a good reason. partly its a general distaste for the macho-artist abstract expressionism THING but that feels like such a boring reason to count him out. really i went to the moma show the other weekend and left like completely unmoved.
THOUGH -- funny enough edb my favorite stuff was a collection of like 5 paintings and lithographs hed done in black and white, gorgeous stuff
― max, Monday, 23 January 2012 13:21 (twelve years ago) link
2nded on 'Big Black Sun'-- alot of that was work I wouldn't have gone out of my way to see, but I was in LA to see the PST shows and heard how good it was. Very well researched and presented, with an immense amount of work.
As for who I've been thinking about: everybody in the "Phenomenal" show down at MCASD, which I also saw and loved last weekend.
― WARS OF ARMAGEDDON (Karaoke Version) (Sparkle Motion), Monday, 23 January 2012 16:56 (twelve years ago) link
i think the other reason i dont like de kooning is that i find most of his stuff kind of ugly and not even in an interesting way. thats shallow, i know. if he seemed like a more interesting person i might have a better "in"

it's a film installation she did called 'smoke' from the late '60s i think? v 'warholian'

Today I've come with full force to Alessandro Mendini's work. A lot of concepts I've been thinking about with regards to my own work I'm finding he has explored extensively through his.
http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0qvyfdaaT1qz6av7o1_500.jpg
http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0qszbyhrT1qz6av7o1_500.jpg
http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0ql2tCqxo1qz6av7o1_500.jpg
I'm interpreting these as symbols of everyday objects—their usefulness denied; their forms scaled, gilded, burned as effigies. Especially interesting to me is that in spite of this these are still products, Mendini is the head of a design house, all these object/sculptures are still useful. This isn't straight up Claus Oldenburg erecting giant monuments to the everyday; but a play with both form and function that, I feel, speaks poignantly about both. I also find them extremely beautiful!
