Today's discussion about possible art installations was really inspiring and motivational. It makes me want to create work, and tons of it (and not even for the installation). I researched some art installations and found so many great and creative ones. Some artist did 3D pixel art on the street, and I thought that was just fantastic. I found an Inception inspired installation called Batiment which can be found here. It is nuts. I love it. Our ideas thus far are incredible though. I'm hoping that it gets approved. What we plan on doing isn't that necessarily complex (and I'm not saying that it has to be), but it is intriguing. I think the reason why this is is due to the fact that there will be a large quantity of work that is fun and interactive. If you can get people to be apart of the art, it creates an unforgettable experience.  I may go to a museum and forget a painting I saw, but I will never forget the balloon room in the MoMA or Ann Hamilton's installation at the Armory. In both cases I was somehow involved with the art, and I think that's really important.

Megumi Matsubara had a really interesting installation at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo. It's called Tremors were Forever: Remember Le Corbusier. Here's a video of it. 


And here's a picture of it. Pretty neat stuff.

  1. I like the fact you are taking what we do in class and expanding upon it.

    Now, of you combine this post, with some of the ideas of your last post, the shape of a project starts to form. Do you see it?
