Ride Lugged

Here’s the latest round from our future business leaders, politicians, and blockbuster clerks:

this piece really caught my eye. just what are those jelly fish covered in crazy quilts?

apparently they are “colorful mountains”. he goes on to describe his work:

“My art work was inspired by a variety of different things. I wanted to tell a story much like Chagall does. I wanted my piece to be beautiful and harmonious at the same time. I wanted it to have a sense of power, and dominance that leaves the viewer wondering. This is why I chose to have a man carrying Beaver Stadium.”

Never explains the sod houses he is about to crush. Collateral damage?

Let me see if i have this one right: the flames represent society, the coals represent the media and the man, which stoke the societal flame, the martini glass represents getting free drinks from cute guys, and the black locks of hair are from bubbles, michael jackson’s sycophantic monkey. I think thats right.

From the mouth of the artist: “Who would have thought this would be considered art?”

This piece was so bad that i have included the entire essay as well as my response.

“For this assignment, I chose to compare my artwork “School Times” to bicycle wheel by Marcel Duchamp. I call it School Time because it reminds me when I was a little boy starting in an Elementary School. I learned writing and drawing with those kinds of pens and pencils.

Bicycle Wheel from Marcel Duchamp has a negative area which means the artist has wasted a lot area, however, in my artwork “School Times” I used as much as possible area as I can use. My artwork is nonrepresentational art, it doesn’t represent anything. Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel Artwork, it represents motion and kinetic energy which he wildly represented in the use of what became known as his “readymades”. Both Duschamp’s and my artwork, they are obviously three-dimensional because its real picture of actual objects. About the form, in my opinion the organization and arrangement of visual elements are better in my work because, I didn’t pay that much attention to it. The reason why I did that because I don’t think it would be really artistic. I just put the pens and pencils down and took picture of them the way they were. On the other hand Marcel paid attention to it and put the bicycle wheel on the middle of the chair which really doesn’t look that bad.”

my response:

“Berker,

Where is the rest of your essay? This reads like you drafted it on a cocktail napkin in a poorly lit room.”
