I Love It Loud
visual art
Image by djwhelan
Kind of a fun shot that I spied while wandering around the Brentwood Spring Art Festival. Loud music, loud colors–I love it loud. The gradation from sun to sky makes me happy as well.

This was my original entry for the “Loud” Theme Competition.

PDF (new! second edition! 24/09!)
NAVIGATE it (new! second edition! 24/09!)
Hi-Res PDF (new! second edition! 24/09!)

Un número dedicado a explorar la visión y propuestas de Marcel Duchamp.
No su vida, no su obra; tan sólo algunos de sus conceptos.
Realizado con aportes de artistas, pensadores y diseñadores de todo el mundo
combinados con la explícita intención de producir a su vez un objeto duchampiano.

-el medio como instrumento intelectual que transpasa su especificidad y se burla de ella
-la obra independientemente de su carácter representativo e interpretativo
-”arte”, en términos de convenciones, lo más “amorfo” posible
-”obras” en las que la obra no es una finalidad en sí misma sino una excusa
-interpretaciones o, mejor dicho, lecturas que pueden convivir a pesar de ser aparentemente excluyentes
-objetos “anestesiados estéticamente”, anulados en su probable complacencia de la mirada, “rectificados”,”asistidos” para otorgarles una nueva -a menudo, insólita- significación. Como en la elección de los “ready-mades”: “basada en la indiferencia visual y en la ausencia total del buen o mal gusto”
-obras “definitivamente inacabadas”
-rrose sélavy, su alter(-)ego
-ajedrez, máquinas ópticas, matemáticas, geometría, “artefactos”
-la “pintura mental”, “pintura de precisión”, el rechazo de cualquier elemento en el que la mirada se pueda recrear con fruición

-texto, – bloques, – fotografías, + mixed-media, + pintura, + ilustración.
-toda la revista está en castellano e inglés.

This issue plays around the conceptual universe of Marcel Duchamp. Not his life, nor his works, just some of his concepts.

– the medium, as an intellectual tool which goes beyond its specificity mocking it.
– the work, regardless of its representative and interpretative character.
– “art”, in terms of conventions, as “amorphous” as possible.
– “construction”, in which the work is not it’s purpose, but an excuse.
– interpretations, or rather readings which can coexist despite being seemingly exclusive.
– objects “aesthetically anesthetized,” lapsed in their likely sight complacency; “rectified”, “assisted”, to give them a new –often unusual- significance. As with the choice of “ready-mades”: “based on visual indifference and a total absence of good or bad taste”
– works “definitively unfinished”.
– rrose sélavy, his alter (-) ego.
– chess, optic machines, mathematics, geometry, “artifacts”.
– “mental painting,” “precision painting”, the rejection of any element in which sight can be delighted.

– aesthetics: – text, – blocks, – photographs, + mixed-media, + painting, + illustration.
– the whole magazine, in spanish and english.

“Aspiral”

Check out these visual art images:

“Aspiral”
visual art
Image by volantra
John Rylands started his business with a single penny…

The neo-gothic building of the John Rylands library situated in Manchester city center recently received the addition of a new extension. The atrium part of the extension was chosen for the incorporation of an artwork on the west wall. (This artwork was never put forward and is not the one chosen for the space)

I chose to use small squares to give the visual effect of fragmentation. Each small square threaded onto "Aspiral" is either made from cotton rag paper or organic linen / cotton. Since William Morris is one of the great achievers within the library’s collections, his superb use of colour was incorporated into the artwork. I chose to add the colour sparingly so as not to distract from the form, textures and subtlety of the fabric and paper.

… the Aspiral demonstrates a life long commitment to the cotton industry and literature, the combination of aspiration and hard work.

Nil Sine Labore – "nothing without work", Rylands family motto.

Artwork design for John Rylands Library as part of my Design degree. Image is photoshoped and is not actually displayed in the library. This design was never entered into the competition and was designed for degree purpose only. Winning design is by Derek Hunt www.limelightstudios.co.uk/

ScreenLab 0x02 – the Octave
visual art
Image by University of Salford
Three internationally-renowned artists will invite the public to explore the crossover between art and technology when they launch a radical digital media showcase at the University of Salford this week.

Through the ScreenLab 0x02 residency, artists Kyle McDonald, Joanie Lemercier and Joel Gethin Lewis have been working with students and researchers at MediaCityUK and an advanced technology centre on the main campus. Together they have developed interactive artworks that provide a unique experience for each visitor by creating artificial worlds using sound and visuals that react to their movement.

A few nice visual art images I found:

Blue shell pattern design

Image by Rebekah Leigh
A pattern created from shell drawings done using felt tip, this pattern has a really nice feel to it, I love the visual look that using felt tip pens gives you, it looks great when scanned in and made into patterns. Rebekah Leigh Marshall 2010

Detail of painting by Camille Pissarro (10 July 1830 – 13 November 1903) was a French Impressionist painter. His importance resides not only in his visual contributions to Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, but also in his patriarchal standing among his colleagues, particularly Paul Cézanne and Paul Gauguin.

Union_Sq_Zoetrope_1
visual art
Image by MTAPhotos
MTA Arts for Transit in Sept. 2011 unveiled "Union Square in Motion," a temporary interactive art installation in which the movement of passersby animates a digital visual display depicting nine sets of abstract and organic-themed images created by nine student artists. The display is a digital zoetrope, a series of still images that differ from one another in slight ways and create the appearance of animation when viewed in succession. The artwork’s creators describe it as the world’s largest digital linear zoetrope. More: bit.ly/rfb22z Photo by Metropolitan Transportation Authority / Rob Wilson.

View of Cincinnati taken from the Carnegie Arts Center, Covington, Kentucky
visual art
Image by elycefeliz
The Carnegie Visual and Performing Arts Center is a multidisciplinary arts venue for all ages which provides events, educational programs, and art exhibitions to the Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati community. The Carnegie facility reflects its threefold nature: within its 17,000 square foot facility are The Carnegie Galleries, crowned by a landmark Beaux Arts dome; the magnificent, newly renovated Otto M. Budig Theatre; and the newer Eva G. Farris Education center. The Carnegie is the largest arts venue in Northern Kentucky.

The Carnegie was established in 1972 in a former Carnegie Library which originally was constructed in 1902. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places. Saved from the wrecking ball by local residents during the 1970s, The Carnegie has grown from a grassroots arts alliance into a major venue in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region. It is an Associate Member of the Fine Arts Fund and receives funding from the Kentucky Humanities Council, from local businesses and corporations, from individuals, and private foundation grants.

Located at 1028 Scott Boulevard, The Carnegie public library and adjoining auditorium were built in 1904 for a grand total of ,000 with funds given to the city of Covington by Andrew Carnegie.

The interior of the original library building is made up of two floors, connected by ornately carved dual winding staircases. A circular balcony and open rotunda overlook the main floor underneath an impressive amber glass dome.

Abstract art

Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world. Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality. The arts of cultures other than the European had become accessible and showed alternative ways of describing visual experience to the artist. By the end of the 19th century many artists felt a need to create a new kind of art which would encompass the fundamental changes taking place in technology, science and philosophy. The sources from which individual artists drew their theoretical arguments were diverse, and reflected the social and intellectual preoccupations in all areas of Western culture at that time.

Abstract art, nonfigurative art, nonobjective art, and nonrepresentational art are loosely related terms. They are similar, although perhaps not of identical meaning.

Abstraction indicates a departure from reality in depiction of imagery in art. This departure from accurate representation can be only slight, or it can be partial, or it can be complete. Abstraction exists along a continuum. Even art that aims for verisimilitude of the highest degree can be said to be abstract, at least theoretically, since perfect representation is likely to be exceedingly elusive. Artwork which takes liberties, altering for instance color and form in ways that are conspicuous, can be said to be partially abstract. Total abstraction bears no trace of any reference to anything recognizable. In geometric abstraction, for instance, one is unlikely to find references to naturalistic entities. Figurative art and total abstraction are almost mutually exclusive. But figurative and representational (or realistic) art often contains partial abstraction.

Both Geometric abstraction and Lyrical Abstraction are often totally abstract. Among the very numerous art movements that embody partial abstraction would be for instance fauvism in which color is conspicuously and deliberately altered vis-a-vis reality, and cubism, which blatantly alters the forms of the real life entities depicted.

Thoughts about abstract…….forms…….

As you see, I do not treat the creation of fiction, that to say the invention and development of fantasies, as a form of abstract thought. I dont wish to deny the uses of the intellect, but sometimes one has the intuition that the intellect by itself will lead one nowhere.

Delight at having understood a very abstract and obscure system leads most people to believe in the truth of what it demonstrates.
