Spencer Tunick

Bill

Spencer Tunick is a American photographer who's noted for his large-scale nnize ude shot all over the world. He began to organize nude shots in different human installations and documenting human nudes in public locations in 1992. He becomes famous in his world journey of nude shots, followed by cameras from media all over the world. What he does emphasizes the beauty of human figures but also he digs downward: he makes a point that human equal to any life matters on Earth, they are born and fed and will be grown up on the Earth, and he a recorder who keeps the memo of this huge process.

In majority of his photography he places his model-volunteers far away from the camera lens; the composition becomes very interesting when the contrast between individuals and the background building or scenery becomes strong. His fulfillment of human figures in his works greatly enhances the most primitive beauty of mankind.

John Marin

Bill

Water color and landscape are two elements that I do not usually present in my art assembles, but John Marin's abstract painting of landscapes is really something that would take me to a new area. He is a early American modernist artist who is noted for his painting styles: he uses water color and acrylic to represent a very loose handling in his art pieces.

His landscape paintings are a assemblage of different shapes and little pieces that collage together; It's a bit childish when I took my first look at his art: incomplete shapes, loosen lines and weird composition, but I think this is the most attractive part of his painting when I looked closer. I really appreciate his representing of collage-like landscape painting; it's pretty much a bold attempt considered of his time.

Aubrey Beardsley

Bill

Aubrey Beardsley is a British illustrator who is (at least from my perspective) pretty much noted for his highly distinctive line works. He was somehow underestimated at his time; most of his drawing and illustration made their first appearance on books and magazines "with relatively limited subscription." With a strong handling of lines, Beardsley's black-and-white illustration creates a revolution of line techniques and textures unquestionably.

  Many of the black-and-white drawing he did represents figures of witch in different forms, but all of them somehow visually possess a dark tone.  Compare to artist who has very distinctive line works like Joan Miro or Sergio Toppi (Italy illustrator), Aubrey Beardsley's line looks more solid in shapes but more soft on the outline (contour) of human figures; also, his line gives a sense of movement.  

Something something

About  unintended project.

So I would like to talk about some "pieces" which I've done recently. After a certain period of struggling with working inspiration, the idea that people grant me is combing my drawing and my photograph together, which is pretty much a new thing that I've thought about but did not intended to do before because I wasn't seriously a big fun of paper collage--I thought that is the only way to do this combing thing. But why not doing something digitally? Photoshop sounds a lot more viable for me. Eventually I did something pretty much unconsciously but came out okay after some experimenting--probably the whole thing is a experiment.

Instead of all black-and-white or all texture fulfillment, some bright colors are added to fulfill the spaces with textures and lines. 

Social network blah blah blah.

Social network is definitely the most frequent online activity all over the world-Facebook is pretty much dominating social networking and online activities in the US present day.Obviously Mark Zuckerberg's product launched very successfully and went through the roof. A couple of issues have been discussed and researched about Facebook, which continues to be the most popular social networking of the US. The biggest things would absolutely be its public influence, mental health, pro and cons, etc. Now according the research, it releases the life stress and anxiety in some way--people get to know each other in the virtual world where they have chance to talk pretty much more freely than they do in reality. Also, it encourages the mutual support for people. Where there'are benefits, there will be drawbacks. Mental depression becomes common today: Cyberbullying is a main driver of people feeling depressed or depression. Language attacks, cyber manhunt,Mature content(body exposure, sex pictures), and of course, internet addiction. All that said, it's a completely normal phenomenon and we knew these would be happening from the beginning, since there's a virtual world where people could do literally anything.

Álvaro Siza Vieira

About Boa Nova Tea House,Portugal

Álvaro Joaquim de Melo Siza Vieira, who's internationally known as Alvaro Siza and Siza Vieira in Portugal, is a Portuguese architect. Siza's prominent figure in architecture and his architecture works are recognized as a connection between the historical environment and the modern architecture structure. Alvaro Siza shows his respect particularly on the location where the construction is placed. That said, majority of those new architecture works went through his hand are relatively connects to the old, local tradition, therefore a lot of original elements are retained.

Construction set on the hillside, a very direct connection to the nature.

Boa Nova Tea House,Portugal, 1858-1961

Boa Nova Tea House which takes approximately 3 years and finished in 1961 would be a representative figure of Alvaro Siza's architectural style. The entire structure of the architecture is placed directly on the hillside, the unconventional design of the opening of windows and doors brings the nature skylight in and emphasized the connection between the interior and the outdoor landscape. The tea house blends with the land rocks surrounded softly. Growing out from the rocks, that will be it.
