January 18, 2008
On Wednesday's class we spent an hour at the McColl Center for Visual Arts. First off, the building was beautiful. I loved the stone and the inside brick. The history was also interesting. What stood out to me was the Contemporary Art piece "5000 Misconceptions". Not saying the artist has no artistic ability; however, it took little artistic ability (the basics, like drawing and painting) to create such a power piece. It made me feel like I could get a point across and I too could be an artist without having to draw. As you can tell from my blogs, I cannot draw and the fact that I have to draw scares me. Also Malena talked about how you need to look at art and need to think why the artist chose a certain material or certain color. After Concept Studio class I went back to english where we discussed the same thing, but in terms of reading context. Although they are two different classes they still connect which I thought was neat.
