art online

If anyone is interested in visiting an art museum but can not like me. Artnet.com has found some art exhibits and artists that can be seen and heard online through artist website, Ubuweb, Vimeo, Rhizome, Youtube there is one more but I dare not say where it is (begins with a "p" ends with "ornhub"). Weird time for artist to show their life's work or any sorta opening. It is one of those times where the internet does come in handy and not entirely a distraction.

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 : CH4 "The Digital Art" 180-199

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. 

Response: New Media in Art Ch4 200-222

In this section of chapter four Michael Rush speaks briefly about the internet although vast and global not yet affordable for everyone (222). As artists find new ways to distribute their artwork online. The book discusses various websites that artist constructed another piece of artwork for hosting their work. Similarly, museums seem obsolete because now artist have a way commissioning their work cutting out the middle man. And there no rules of how obscenity are pushed. Which good and bad for viewers and artist.
