ART 21

SEASON 1. Maya Lin-sculpturist-architect. The park and the skate rink.
SEASON 2. Kara Walker-painter-illusions. scenery and illusions.
SEASON 3. Cai Guo Qiuang-gun powder-drawings.
SEASON 4. Laurie Simmons-uses photography  with objects.



As I was watching the videos I noticed the many styles Artists have. The names mentioned above are some of my favorites, but there was one that caught my attention and it was the asian guy Cai Gua jiuan. It was interesting the way he works on his pieces, he first draw and then arrange gun powder around or in the drawing accordingly  and burns it up, so that when it burns gives it a different finish. He  also uses color gun powder.
