COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Famous artists tell how their work evolves from the first seed. submitted by ccrose on July 8, 2019, 6:07pm Some folks can't stand just listening to an artist talk, talk, talk about their work. I love it! I notice how my own ideas stir.
William Kentridge ably teaches how to grow an idea, using simple torn paper to film a moving horse like a flipbook. Wbithout embarrassment, he acts as a horse's rear end. Simple and eye-opening.

Carrie Mae Weems, a MacArthur Genius award winner, worked with students to recreate iconic pictures like inserting a young Asian woman as the busboy, kneeling on kitchen floor, cradled Robert Kennedy's head as he died from an assassin. The change made her shift, understand how history felt.
I could feel my own images get clearer in my head.
