Salvador Dali, A Couple with Their Heads Full of Clouds
okay so this piece is really interesting to me right now.
@Andy Price: Due to photographs flatness, I feel that they have more to do with collage.
@PeterAinsworth: or indeed appropriation and re-contextualization in photography
@PeterAinsworth: not what is depicted its about being flat. Needs physicality Sculpture from past participle of sculpere to carve
@andreybogush: But don’t we perceive them more 3D(cons. more sculptural) than anything else depicted on photographic image?
@PeterAinsworth: ’readymade’ has specific history in terms of surrealism. Comes from objet trouve so in that sense no
@PeterAinsworth: Also I think the term sculpture implies physical 3-D so if it is produced as a print then could be sculpture
@gmarlowe: Photos aren’t necessarily reality. Images are representations of an artist’s views/concepts
@rzyrzy: technology in camera based art just allows for more seamless visual trickery, it doesn’t make those “objects” actually exist.

I totally disagree with that last comment. An image’s intangibility does not mean nonexistence. I also don’t see images or “photoshop generated 3D objects” as being “flat.”
I’ll be exhibiting some of my most recent work here. Also excited to being showing with this group of artists. The opening is the Friday. Come out!
I’ve got new work in this show as well! Come check it out!!

Artie Vierkant interviewed at Rhizome
“All of this does stem a bit from, yes, feeling that for the most part installation photographs very accurately represent what a physical sculpture looks like. When I see documentation of works before I visit the exhibition, usually the act of visiting does little more than produce a sense of deja vu. Even if not, install photos are usually an idealized version of the pieces that make them look closer to how the artist intended them to look.
The problem with this is that, really, it’s so much easier and for the most part makes so much more sense now to just Photoshop or 3D-sculpt how you want your work to look rather than ever printing it or painting it or assembling it. That was part of the impetus behind Image Objects as well. If I’m going to be making a physical object that will be seen 99% of the time through another image I felt there should be something unique about both types of experiences. Otherwise, why have the physical object at all?”
