ok fellow witches and wizards, i figure i should post 2 questions before i leave for artmaking class.
1. Do you agree or disagree with Michael Fried's claim that Minimalism is ideological, non-modernist, theatrical, and thus hostile to art? Use both personal opinion and Robert Smithson's article in the packet to support your claim.
2. Do you agree with Smithson and feel that movements incorporating industrialization (Anthony Caro and David Smith used steel and aluminum) has less of an artistic value than rust? Also, what do you feel about this type of sculpture material's use of time (does it just convey the concept of supply and demand?) For aesthetic value, do you appreciate earth art or minimalist art more?
3. I also wanted to talk about the link of language/communication through semiotics in terms of this reading, because i'm not finding much of a connection between the two.
may the force be with every young witch and wizard.
