American Painting

[Черномашенцев Владимир]

I picked up a particularly distinctive (but not quite pornographic, in the literal sense of the word), copies of contemporary Amer. art. On many I mentioned earlier - the way want to look.

Quality is not oh, as photographed from thin. album. Note that these works were printed in the albums with promising titles like "Masterpieces of 20 th century, or are well-respected museum MoMA (The Museum of Modern Art, New-York). In some photos, my semi Panasonic LX-2 refused to focus. This is what happens if you try to remove at a construction site bare gray concrete wall. This thought led me to build a building comments on some of the pictures, the more so that some characters of the forum have already managed to ride roughly over my current method of earnings.

WARNING for connoisseurs of fine nerve Amer. Art:

I do not recommend reading my comments, because they may contain bad words. I ask in this case limited only viewing the pictures, and then my arguments "against" easily turn into arguments for a particular person is.
Restriction of age - no.

1) Vauthier, Art is useless, go home, 1971

I want to start his opus as a joke to me an unknown artist, which explains much of the state of amer culture.

2) Rothko, Magenta, black, green to orange, 1949
3) Rothko, Red on burgundy, 1959

Current classic amer culture, which can now see the original on the Crimean shaft. I agree that in this collection, it looks very fresh and most interesting. I've seen at a construction site beginning painters who were unable to completely paint over the surface. Or did not.

4) Dibenkorn, Ocean Park 115, 1979

In some ways the spiritual successor of Rothko, but very late. Becomes frightening to think that there is somewhere else ocean parks from number 1 to number 114. Repeat before. comment does not consider it necessary, and new can imagine.

5) Marden, grove I, 1973

Paintings Rothko, reaching a peak. It is here that my camera would not focus. Even the technique does not like concrete walls!

6) Klein, Blue Monochrome, 1961

Rothko painting, which reached a peak. And then my camera would not focus.
At the construction site, I would call it a good painter - no neprokrasov, smooth blue surface, as a spray.

7) Ruscha, Uff, 1962-1962

Tired people to work - "a great surface to paint."

8) Prince, Untitled (joke), 1987

Painting Ruscha, which reached a peak. The follower was more stubborn and hard-working - more than words written. So with the Tajiks in the construction site - they all love it and can work.

9) Trokel, Playboy Bunny, 1985, knitted wool

Bound lady hare-picture. It is particularly important to her that it is natural wool. I often argue on the construction site with beginning designers who like to overdo it with textiles, ryusham and pompons. Is this possible to join the most provincial union of artists as "an applied"? I do not want to offend the applied arts - it is in Russia is clearly on a higher level. We do not create masterpieces, associating a typewriter invented by another person logos. This compilation can not even name. This - scarf for an aging playboy or young teenager.

10) Kelly, Colors for a big wall, 1951

Go see at a construction work starts the designer, rather dizaynershi. So often put tiles in children's and women's bathrooms country houses. Ou, who is this artist? Or an artist? I do not think art is when the work is clearly visible gender. Women's art does not exist. Must be just painting.
