This is the 3D mapping dance performance Porsche Maan. The entire video was visually engaging. The use of lights of and bright colors captures the audiences attention and truly keeps the viewer engaged throughout the video. It's easy to get side tracked while watching a video, but this video art doesn't suffer from this problem.

Jim Campbell

Jim Campbell is listed as an artist under video art. I clicked the link and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the artwork. He has a consistent theme of 'futuristic' similar to the Andy Warhol art piece of the floppy disk. However, he accomplishes this task by using silvers, blurry images, and bright colors. It gives off a futuristic theme and ensures a consistent theme.

Before we were assigned our performance art video, we were shown this in order to deter us from falling into this same trap. This is an extremely uncomfortable video and I'm not sure what the woman was thinking. I don't understand how dancing on butter can be considered performance art, but to each their own. I made sure to steer clear of doing something similar to this to avoid becoming a viral video on youtube that everyone made fun of.

Marina Abramovic Performance Art

Marina Abramovic is a well known performance artist and her video of her sitting in a chair silently while allowing any viewers to sit across from her. It is a powerful performance considering her husband that she hadn't seen in years. They were confined to silence, but they were expressing all of their intense emotions on their faces and it was a magical moment. The onlookers could see that something magnificent was taking place before them even though they had no idea what the circumstances were. 

Banksy - Exit Through The Gift Shop

I had previously watched this document and was blown away by the underground world of graffiti art. Banksy is completely anonymous and does his artwork at night in order to conceal his identity. He has traveled across the world and each of his artworks are a talking point for mass amounts of people. He is able to draw attention to unique and hard hitting issues that he believes are social injustices. It's incredible to see a graffiti artist actually make changes on a large scale.

Pop Art
Richard Hamilton was considered the father of pop art. He was known for his iconic creation of these collage based images. These unique images combined allow for a completely new direction in art. This style innovated a new area of art. It's interesting to see an entire scene created by individual images!

Dada Art

Dadaism is the movement of the European avant-garde in the early 20th century. The height of the movement began in New York in 1916. I wasn't familiar with many art movements, but this one was particularly interesting and sparked my attention. The textures allow for a detailed and appealing look while also maintaining the viewers interest by layering many unique patterns.
