Today in our 100 Art class we discussed about some artists and their identities. Some of the main artists that we discussed were Disney reject, Gary Locke that by the way his quote is very inspirational. The documentary Were All Angels sounds very interesting because is about two men who are gay, but are also very christian. Glenn discussed about these artists because our class has to research some of these artists. Glenn talked about Cindy Sherman. Sherman is the artist who I will be researching. Glenn explained that Sherman is famous for photography. She takes portraits of herself when she is in her studio, he also talked about how the positions she takes with her camera define who she is. If you take a look at the picture on your right side, you could see how Sherman is taking the picture with her camera on the up. Another artist who I believe was intersting was Angry Little Asian Girl. Lela Lee is who draws this paintings, she draws this paintings when she is mad. Is interesting to see how she identifies with these paintings. I will show some pictures that identify this asian girl.
These were one of my favorite artists for todays lecture. I just discovered that art could be done throughut your identity. Perhaps some of these artists are not as recognized as other's but their work should be admired.
