Article 1: Walker
One thing that I agreed with in the
article Big Ideas and Artmaking is
the concept that if an artist isn’t interested in their artwork then it simply
becomes an “exercise in problem solving.”
One
idea that I do not agree with in the article is when they say that a big idea “drives”
and artists work over time. This may be true in some cases, but I feel that in a
lot of abstract art pieces the idea or meaning of the artwork is made after the
piece is finished.
Article 2: Barrett
One
thing that I agreed with in this article is the idea that denotations and
connotations of artwork can go far beyond what the artist intended. Everyone
responds differently to different art pieces, and something that might be
overlooked by the artist could possibly be considered offensive to others.
Having
said that, one think that I do not agree with is the “over-analyzing” of completely
random details, like taped hands in football.
