Light Years Review -Zebadiah

The camera was a perfect tool for artists to manipulate human perception

            -Gordon Matta-Clark’s Conical Intersect, distorts the familiarity to interior, and creates new importance through reduction of the subject

            -Jan Dibbets  Horizon III forces the viewers attention toward the frame of the projection because of the instinctual nauseating sensation produced  from the diagonal positions of the apparatus.

            - Braco Dimitrijevic’s Casual Passerby’s were able to be monumentalized in the city square and were simply random encounters of the photographer

Conceptualist love methodical processes.

           

            -Dennis Oppenheim’s Gallery Transplant, the entire piece is based on the process of moving a known space to a unrelated location creating a new context.

            -Giuseppe Penone’s Untitled, c. 1974, shows four fore arms but each one is on a separate print in separate frames, process of lining the frame with arms.

            -Michael Heizer’ Munich Rotary Interior was created with a backhoe and was specifically created 10 feet deep and 100 feet in diameter.

The magic of Conceptual work is found in the mundane.

            - Braco Dimitrijevic’s Casual Passersby’s convey images of real life regular people

            - Emilio Prini’s Small Film produces large scale presentations of objects or views that would not say the same thing when viewed individually

            -Jan Dibbets Horizon III causes an array of complex thought processes just by juxtaposing two angled perspectives of the ocean moving up and down
