| Picasso and Eule |
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality. [PABLO PICASSO]
This coming week we will consider the possibilities and the
limitations of the reproduced image through fragmentation. What does it mean to
create compositions through fragmentation? How can we open our imagination /
ways of seeing an image by using the frame of a camera (or camera/phone/device)
to abstract a detail – highlight a texture, create a new composition, etc?
During our gallery walk, find a fragment of an image to respond
to: using a camera – from your phone/device or other personal camera—take
images of the works of other artists, in whole and in fragments/parts. Choose
an abstracted fragment/detail to post to the blog and write about it – how does
it change your view of the original work?
