First thoughts on this museum George Lucas is only showing his artwork from his Star Wars films now owned by Disney but it is better than what I initially thought. It is an art museum that presents visual storytelling through illustrations, paintings, comic art and in-depth exploration of the arts of filmmaking(storyboards, costumes, animation, visual effects)(lucasmuseum.org). Challenging the way people view art museums varies collections of digital art, cinema, and narrative. Recently the museum acquired the Separate Cinema Archive, a collection of 37,000 objects documenting African American cinema history from 1094 to the present day (Sarah Cascone, artnet.com, 2020It is great to see that there is diversity in the art museum, which unfortunately sometimes we do not see in high art museums. What I thought was amazing was that the museum wants to include new films and filmmakers as well sharing historic films. Here's to hoping they follow through on this inclusion of diversity. Coming soon to LA, 2021 The Lucas Museum of Narrative.
I decided to do this theme because that is what I’m constantly hearing all day for the past weeks. So why not make some art of this situation. The poster colors China flags withing the spray is where it was started. And I changed the mask into a dis-morphed United states flag. Using a very generic Asian face from the internet because people are freaking about or reacting in racial profiling manor. And calling this virus what is and that is a racist virus. And I chose to use a disinfecting spray because people are buying large amounts of this. And it also references to how some Americans view Asian people as zombies, pests, or the cause of reason for the spread of this virus. Which is far from the truth.
"Why the F**k I'm Up" "for this projected I took a shit ton of photos for about 6 months now. And I did not know what I wanted to do with them. Anyway, I took slices of each photo that was taken at an ungodly hour. And rearranged them into a new view of my car window. And I will say I was not driving when I produced these photos. It pays off sometimes to be early. But I rather be sleeping."
A German artist by the name of Andreas Gursky photo manipulated laborers to make seem that were over thousands of workers in one building. And the photograph makes you think about where all materialistic phones, clothing, tablets things. I think we all know it comes from but what we do not like to think about is the amount of labor and conditions of the environment.
