Dragonfly eyes

He use many monitor video to made a movie, to explore the relationship between the technology and personal privacy. He use the completely different way to make up a movie, no actor no director.

The most common daily things are the least problematic. It firstly brings the art and the viewer’s daily experience to the same level, then does subversive work in the scope that the audience can be confident, relax and familiar with.

Albers Joseph Albers The InterracRon Of Colour 1963

 

He put many beautiful color together in different way and make different feeling.

It’s really wonderful to make art just use color, and just use the color we still can see the artist’s unique point, Albers use many warn color like orange and rad, makes me think about the sun set, and David hokeny’s color has many blue pink and purple, it’s really spacial. And I should try to find the special color of myself.

The video is like you are the Artificial intelligence, and the women in the video is talking to you like talking to the Artificial intelligence and you can see everything she did in the room. It showed the intimate relationship between people and the artificial intelligence. And the interested thing is the artist let the audition to be the artificial intelligence and let the audition to be a part in this, let the audience to engage with the work

Lucian Freud

He and David Hokeny is my favorite artist, he always and show the emotion and the thinking behind the canvas by his powerful brushwork and color, when I do my oil painting,a men is sleeping in the tube, I feel difficult to make beautiful color, and then I think about Lucian Freud’s work, it’s not important at all to make beatiful color in this eating, just feel the emotion about the tired of this man and try to express the feeling. The most powerful thing in painting is let people feel the emotion. It’s the most different between painting and photo. Many people think oil painting is not enough to make good art work now, but I don’t think so, no matter to express your feeling in 2D or 3D, the thing is to find a spacial and right way to express the artist’s thinking in his work.

Robert Rauschenberg

Black Paintings He just use one color and make some special texture to express the feeling, I really like this way, it’s really pure,and color is really important in the art work. Only use color we also can feel the strong emotion in the artwork, blue makes me feel comfortable, red makes me feel warn and I can see everything in the black painting. And I tried this way to do a painting too, I only use the white prime in the canvas, because the prime and the pan is soft in canvas ,I wanted to show the peaceful feeling and I took a video.

Ai weiwei 

Is the most controversial artist in China, his grandfather is a famous poet, and his brother is a famous artist in China, he do oil painting for the tibet little girl. But aiweiwei did something infuriate the government of china so in Chinese websites we can't see many aiweiwei's work. But he is very popular in here.

the unilever series- ai weiwei sunflower seeds  (1).jpg 

Porcelain is almost synonymous with China and, to make this work, Ai Weiwei has manipulated traditional methods of crafting what has historically been one of China’s most prized exports. Sunflower Seedsinvites us to look more closely at the ‘Made in China’ phenomenon and the geo-politics of cultural and economic exchange today.

Ai Weiwei's Unilever Series commission, Sunflower Seeds, is a beautiful, poignant and thought-provoking sculpture. The thinking behind the work lies in far more than just the idea of walking on it. The precious nature of the material, the effort of production and the narrative and personal content create a powerful commentary on the human condition. Sunflower Seeds is a vast sculpture that visitors can contemplate at close range on Level 1 or look upon from the Turbine Hall bridge above. Each piece is a part of the whole, a commentary on the relationship between the individual and the masses. The work continues to pose challenging questions: What does it mean to be an individual in today's society? Are we insignificant or powerless unless we act together? What do our increasing desires, materialism and number mean for society, the environment and the future?

research about Tracy Emin

"If I believe they are art then they are art. I’m the artist, I decide the parameters."

she collected her bad as her art work, and  let me think about Marcel Duchamp's <Fountain>. It's not an panting or a sculpture,it just some daily things around us.

Day by day, good day

DAY BY DAY,GOOD DAY

He draw the same cup everyday, and I think he consider this to heal. I think it’s important to let art to be a part in our life, I always feel hard to start a painting, I aways afraid I will mess up the panting, but if I want to be an artist then art should be an important part in my daily life. I should do painting more frequently, and try to Let the painting to adjust the emotion, rather than wait I have a good emotion than started to painting, it is very inefficient and the work is very single.

And the way to approach work together is very important to show the work, It determines whether the viewer can understand the work and whether the work is attractive, which are the two most important prerequisites for the work of art.

research about Peter Dresser

The Alan Koppel Gallery is pleased to present Peter Dreher: Day by Day, Good Day, an exhibition featuring German artist Peter Dreher’s ongoing lifework. The series of seemingly identical canvases all take the same subject: a transparent water glass placed on a nondescript table against a white wall. Always setting this still life in a corner of his studio in Sankt Märgen, Dreher has returned to paint the same glass for over 5,000 renderings since 1974. The series is roughly split into works made in the daytime and at nighttime; the artist’s only rule is that when sits to begin a painting, it must be completed that same day. Bringing such persistence to his art, Dreher’s series reads something like a diary, chronicling a practice of meditation that affords the artist a sense of immediacy and stillness.

Dreher lost his childhood home early, and has always sought to reconcile this sense of homelessness. Only thirteen years old at the close of World War II, Dreher inherited with the rest of his generation a country lost, divided, and scarred. Day by Day, Good Day is as much a routine of coping and healing as it is an exploration of artistic conventions. Incidentally, Dreher’s mesmeric series is really a byproduct of his desire to assert the particularity of his realist style, to feel present and at peace, and to create— however unconventionally— a space to feel at home. The evocative intentions behind Dreher’s creative process reveal how such unassuming, empty glasses manage to give an inimitable awareness of the artwork as secondary to the practice of a greater intention.

collection project(9.4)

The place project I want to do oil panting for three people in underground, and my favourite artist David Hockney do many panting for different people. It's really great.

And the color of background is really good. He use two bright colors as background. I never use bright color in my painting and I can try like this.

Hito Steyerl

steyerl_nottobeseen1-469x264.jpgHow Not to Be Seen—a video by artist and critic Hito Steyerl—presents five lessons in invisibility. As titles that divide the video into distinct but interrelated sections, these lessons include how to: 1. Make something invisible for a camera, 2. Be invisible in plain sight, 3. Become invisible by becoming a picture, 4. Be invisible by disappearing, and 5. Become invisible by merging into a world made of pictures.1

Some of these methods may seem impossible. How, for example, can someone in plain sight go unseen? Steyerl herself often ponders this question. Her work is fueled by her critical examination of the production, use, and circulation of images from the mid-twentieth century into the Information Age. Referring to the countless images generated and circulated by such sources as social media and surveillance technologies, and the impact of these technologies on our lives, she asks: “How do people disappear in an age of total over-visibility?…Are people hidden by too many images?…Do they become images?”2

A satirical take on instructional films, How Not to Be Seen features a mix of actual and virtual performers and scenes, which illustrate the strategies for becoming invisible, communicated in an authoritative narrative voiceover. In the fourth lesson, the narrator outlines ways of disappearing—including “living in a gated community” or “being a disappeared person as an enemy of the state”3—while panning shots of architectural renderings of luxury living and public spaces, populated largely by computer-generated people, unfold across the screen.

Among the video’s central symbols is a real place: a patch of marked concrete in the California desert once used by the U.S. Air Force to calibrate their surveillance cameras. The concrete is riddled with cracks and desert scrub. As the artist indicates throughout her video, sites like this have fallen into disrepair not because surveillance has stopped, but because more advanced systems are now in use, which do not need to be tested there. These newer systems ensure that we are always visible, and might benefit from her lessons in how not to be seen
