Project Perfection: Part Two

My drawing of my cousin

Well, so far, my project isn't going too badly, but I need something which will give it a bit of oomph! I've compared both Arnulf Rainer and Gerhard Richter and done my first photo-shoot, which was of close family members, along with observational drawings.

My collage based on Kruger's work

To bring the book to life, I've just finished my comparison of Barbara Kruger against John Stezaker as I love both of their work. I can't put my finger on what I exactly love about Kruger's work, it may be the trademark red border, the meaningful captions she adds to her images or the messages each piece of art creates. 

Stezaker's work has more of a dreamlike effect as he uses two unrelated images to re-discover the meaning of its original state. I did a few interpretations of my own, but haven't quite finished, as I want to create something powerful!

I'll leave you with a quote about one of the artists I've looked at so far...

'With John's work people spend up to five minutes on one piece, looking and looking again'
