While visiting the Paula cooper gallery ,i came across works or arts i disliked very much. one of the works i disliked was named "Wall Drawing #564" , I disliked this very much ,for the simple fact i don't feel anything when a look at it ,i just get a huge headache because of these very vivid colors.I feel like the colors are way too much and the shapes are everywhere,it is like a nightmare i could not get away from it was everywhere i turned.Sol Lewitt's "wall Drawing #564" , I feel is not a good investment. The reason i feel this way is this is not something that really would speak to anyone ,and after a while of having this in your home you would go insane! Maybe this is just me but i love artwork that is very unique and different ,this might be different but this is not what i like.
"Wall Drawing #564",1980's
The second painting i disliked Very was another one created from Sol Lewitt.I disliked "Squiggly brushstrokes", I just look at it and think ,"wow the title really fits this painting", That is all i see when i look at this a painting a bunch of squiggly brushstrokes.If i had this painting ,this would be locked away in my basement.This would not be in my home being shown , this painting sort of hypnotizes you when you stare at it for a while ,but that's all it does .To be bluntly honest this is a stupid painting ,and i don't understand its purpose.Although the title does fit this painting very well i must say.
"Squiggly Brushstrokes",1996
Artist Name;Sol Lewitt
Anton Kern Gallery
While visting Anton Kern Gallery, There were two works that really interested me.The first one was "Yellow Front Hall", I found this painting really interesting from the wierd looking dog to the point where he paintined little mini paintings of a actual painting of "5 Birds". I found this very interesting that he put that in there ,you have to be really looking at this painting very well to notice that Jonas wood incorporated another painting into another painting.If i had this painting i would definatley show it off in my home or room , it is a very calm looking but yet interesting painting that draws your attention.I Definetly think this painting is a good investment , i really like the how chill this painting makes you feel,or makes you feel at home ,and then he throws in that creepy dog ,makes you feel right at home!
"Yellow Front Hall",2013
The Second painting i really enjoyed looking at by Jonas Wood, was the "Doyle" .I found this painting quite interesting ,for the fact while looking at the actual painting in person you can really see the brush strokes in this painting. I find that very interesting .Also i love how he really smooths everrything out ,but when he paints the old man he lets the brush strokes show in the old guys face and hand ,which really draws your attention to the painting.
"Doyle",2013
Atrist Name ; Jonas Wood
