Contemporary Art Practice is one of the workshops the Group of artists is doing in the Art and Design Foundation Diploma.
The Group of artists have been looking at appropriation - this is where an artist takes another artist's piece of work and changes it in some way thus making it their own..ie appropriating it!
The Group took a look at some of the well known Appropriation artists including Mike Kelley, Barbara Kruger,Yasumasa Morimura, Jeff Koons and Gerhard Richter amongst others . One of the group chose Gerhard Richter as their appropriating artist - in particular his picture of The Party.
The Party by Gerhard Richter
This is this group member's collection of parties....Welcome, come in and have a wonderful time!!
please help yourself to a drink....

Political Party there are many Political parties in the world - and a lively mix of cartoons that are published the world over of politicians - what a joke!! in the newspaper was a marvellous cartoon of some of the European leaders trying to sort out the Euro crisis. Just pop their faces onto the Richter party heads and add 'the man in the street'. an altogether more forgettable party is this one...apologies!  Let's move on.... Have you got a drink yet? What's your poison?!  let's hope you don't end up like this at the end of the evening. |
A Garden party might be fun....with lots of plants,
