My first few posts will cover some basic research of contemporary artists I've done/will do and I'll discuss some reasons why I find myself enjoying that particular piece or artist's work.
For the first pieces I went to some (given) art websites and found the following:
This abstract blue piece is by Erik Lindman - At first glance this simplistic piece caught my eye due to the strong harmony throughout the work. The overall line shape and form just gives off a very balanced feel and the cool colors lets the viewer have a peaceful mindset.
These next 2 photos came from the same show by Paul McCarthy at Palazzo Citterio in Italy (July 2010). The thing that draws me to viewing these pieces is the completely wierd and a bit horrifying subject. The grotesquely large heads and the inane way they are placed on other pieces of sculpture make me think of a haunted insane asylum or the SAW movies.
