Falling/Floating: Pieces Of Nature, Susan Belau Jan 1999

Falling/Floating: Pieces Of Nature, Susan Belau

School of Art, Art History, and Design: Theses and Student Creative Work

The work presented in this exhibition developed from my sustained interest in the metaphorical power of landscape. In a time when the scale of our land is dwarfed by modem technologies, and the American wilderness has shrunk to near extinction, I look to the small and intimate in the landscape to find awe and an awareness of cycle. My intaglio prints depict fragments of nature - leaves, sticks, pods - and are distinguished by layering of forms, the combination of rendering with abstraction, and lush color. The images evoke ideas of loss, endurance, possibility, and growth - ideas inherent in …

From Writing To Sculpting, Orhan Tekin Jan 1999

From Writing To Sculpting, Orhan Tekin

Theses and Dissertations

I subscribe to the notion that art is the process of capturing a moment in life, by way of projection on to an artist's senses, and a subsequent filtering through his mind, and ultimately a materialization through his hands and instruments. However, that is just the beginning. To take a life of its own, the work of art should further find its way into the minds of its viewers or listeners again through a series of projections and filtering. The excitement of the moment that impinges upon the senses of the artist can be very powerful at times, so powerful …

The Ob-Literation Of Art, Walter Sun Chien Jan 1999

The Ob-Literation Of Art, Walter Sun Chien

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

I read a story, a true story in fact, with real people and real events, an account really, about a piece of cloth. This piece of fabric, brocade actually, had been cut from an old sofa, a couch; stained "shit-brown" from dried blood so went the account. In truth, it was Adolph Hitler's blood on that piece of cloth cut from the couch which he sat on in his bunker beneath burning Berlin before and after he blew his brains out and bled on the brocade.

Idols Are For Suckers: An Exhibition Of Prints, Brett Anthony Fisher Jan 1999

Idols Are For Suckers: An Exhibition Of Prints, Brett Anthony Fisher

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

In this show I have included some of the prints that I have made during my time as a graduate student at the University of Northern Iowa. I believe that these prints show development and transition in style and sensibility. As I have worked, I have tried to continually develop my art. With every print there is an attempt to go beyond the barriers of the previous one. Working intuitively, I try not to have any preconceived notions of what the final piece is going to look like. Every step in the process is valuable; I don't always necessarily know …
