Photographic Imagery As A Source For Iconography In Painting And Drawing, Eric Peder Brakken Jan 1972

Photographic Imagery As A Source For Iconography In Painting And Drawing, Eric Peder Brakken

All Master's Theses

Any verbalization of an artistic statement is by its very nature, an inadequate interpretation. However, I feel there is some merit in a concise declaration of my general concepts in the study. This paper represents a summation of the concepts and directions involved in my studio investigation in painting and drawing.

Specifically, it is within the scope of man's altered and effected perception of reality that I have based the studio research.


The Flowering Rhinoceros: An Extension Of Photography Into Other Media, Lawrence Leslie Bullis Jan 1972

The Flowering Rhinoceros: An Extension Of Photography Into Other Media, Lawrence Leslie Bullis

All Master's Theses

This paper develops, in a literary form, thematic material derived from fourteen photographically etched metal pieces, two photo-serigraphs, and six photographically produced intaglio prints. The narrative takes the form of an allegorical fantasy which contains a practical attitude toward photographic alchemy. New insights are provided into the origins and nature of the photographic medium in the light of the symbolic context of the artwork.

Illustrations of the artwork from which this paper derives are provided.
