Sunday, April 26, 2009. I don't know about that. When the New Museum's exhibition After Nature came out last summer, the title made me an instant skeptic. I imaged a cryptic exhibition filled with exaggerated and only vaguely ominous works that aimed to define a trend within art that represented what we were all trying to prevent by using cloth bags at the grocery store. Paweł Althamer - Self-portrait, 1993. Monday, April 20, 2009. It was quite interesting to read about Werner Herzog's films the week aft...

Thursday, January 29, 2009. Where is the wilderness and have I ever been there? Can it be partially experienced? Can something be both wild and cultivated?

Exploring The Great Human Nature Image: after nature landscapes
http://natureisbestviewedthrougha4x5.blogspot.com/2009/04/after-nature-landscapes.html
Exploring The Great Human Nature Image. Saturday, April 25, 2009. When I hear the phrase "after nature" or post-nature, I instantly think of the phrase post-apocalyptic. I don't really intend this but I did do a project in my first year of grad school that was all about that. I never really connected what "after nature" might have to do with a post-apocalyptic world but this week's blog might be the place to do that. Planet of the Apes. What if apes passed us by? What if plants passed us by? Seem to allu...

Monday, February 23, 2009. Symbolism has consequences: Peace, Harmony, and the Holy Ghost can't bring back the Passenger Pigeon. I really liked swans when I was five. They were so pretty and graceful. In the fairy tales that I read princesses rode on their backs through the night sky and swans floated decoratively in placid ponds in front of castles. Elegant human-swan hybrids leaped through my dreams after I saw Swan Lake. Birdspace: A Post-Audubon Artists' Aviary. The Eye of a Dream. Other artists refe...

Human, Nature, Image: Time and Space

Human, Nature, Image. Heather's substantiated opinion of art in a world modified by man. Monday, April 20, 2009. Upon reading Alan Singer's "Comprehending appearances: Werner Herzog's ironic sublime" I found myself really wanting to watch all of the films listed in the essay. I went online and found a really low resolution version of Fata Morgana. Mirage from the distorting heat of the salt pan. In the beginning of Fata Morgana. Is narrative time simply the sequence of events in the film? Besides the con...

Human, Nature, Image. For all your human, nature, and image needs. Monday, May 4, 2009. Week 14 Sum Up. The same way again! Also, while I love the aesthetic of the New Topographics photographers, I knew very little about the concepts and history behind it. I thought those week’s readings, in conjunction with the Gohlke visit, were particularly enlightening. Posted by Jason Reblando. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Week 14 Sum Up.
