Alright. This time rather than simply putting up some pictures and little blurb about an artist, let's discuss some topics we might deal with.
The idea of scale was something that came up on Wednesday. A few people mentioned they'd like to work "big" or have it be "memorable". I'm wondering if the group feels larger artworks create a stronger impact of their audience. Is there a connection between the size of art and how long you remember it?
Christo and Jean-Claude are best known for using material to wrap massive buildings, stretch immense distances, and surround islands. Some of their projects have taken decades and the assistance of hundreds of volunteers to complete.
Conversely, Lee Walton has done projects involving people performing everyday activities. If you walked by and weren't aware that they were hired actors, you'd mistake them for normal people doing normal things.
What are some of the pieces you've seen or read about that are most vivid in your memory? Were they awe-inspiringly huge, or nearly invisible?
