“Parasite” Oscar winner

I recommend watching this movie not because it won an four oscars, it’s just a really slow burning thriller movie. That is it takes it time establishing the characters personalities and as well as the climax of the film. I don’t want give much away except to try give five words for it, peach-fuzz, poor, smell, and secrets. It is one of the first foreign films to every won best picture in history. Which is awesome in its own right. Bong Joon- ho has made other brilliant films such as Mother, Okja and Snowpiercer. If you loved Snowpiercer than you definitely love watching Parasite.

Response to New Media In Art: Introduction: Pg7-18

In the book, New Media in Art,  by Michael Rush mentions artists in the last century are experimenting more with mix media (7).  Incorporating readymade objects, personal trinkets, and recyclable objects, focusing on the emotion rather than technical skills. Rush references a famous artist, Marcel Duchamp that changed the focus of what is a fine art. Duchamp for example famous piece controversial "fountain" sculpture was not considered art because it was ready-made that had no creat. However, it is an art because it was Duchamp protest towards the Art Galleries and Museums because who are they decide what is art. Art does not have definitive rules of what qualifies as art, there might be tasteful art and distasteful art (22). I think it should be up to the artist and audience to consider what is art, tasteful otherwise.

Response: New Media in Art Ch1: 39-50pgs

In chapter 1, New Media in Art by Michael Rush mentions a performance of beating a guitar on themselves until it disintegrated. And this reminded me of David Blaine when he would perform his extreme isolation meditation. Like with the ice tomb, standing 100-foot high, 22-in wide pillar, submerged in water and buried alive. He did these while filming for a tv show pushing his limits of the audience reactions. Another trick that comes to mind is the ice pick through the hand or arm in front of people. There is this raw emotion of disgust with doubt because that it can't be real? Right?

Response to Hard Cash: A History of Artists Using Money as a Metaphor BY ANDREW RUSSETH

K Foundation's performance  K Foundation Burn a Million Quid , Aug. 23, 1995 Andrew Ruesseth mentions a couple artist including Andy Warhol, and the infamous banana on the wall piece of art. And how much is art worth? A comment on society's values of high art which raises the question of what makes using money in art wrong. Burning it to make a statement that we put so much value in a piece a paper that all it is a piece of paper. Or using precious gemstones that valued high rate already why make a ridiculous medium out of it. Because why not that how most people live their lives thinking about money. Either you have a lot of it or live paycheck to paycheck. And if you live middle class all you do is hope you live to move up or down.
