TATE Modern

Your next post will be about your trip to the Movium and Tate Modern. I want you to put the titles and creators of the two works that you viewed, into two separate posts.

The first blog title will be. The Tate image I liked. In this post you will need:
  1. The title of the work, "block head" Picture of Blockhead 2003 by Paul McCarthy, Tate Modern, London, England - Free Pictures - FreeFoto.com
  2. Name of the artist "paul mcarthy"
  3. and a short description of the art work stating what you liked about it. I like this because it has a sense of futurism in it, also you can amke out a bodily shape in this sculpture but is hidden by the padding causing a barrier between us and the actual shape itself.
  4. Then try and find an image of it.

The second post will be about the work you disliked. use the same detail as above,
  1. Title of work, untitled
  2. Name of artist "claude monet"
  3. and why you disliked the work. It has no effect to any senses, doesnt draw my eye to the actual picture/object. No name was given for the painting. the colours are bright and vibrant but not used in a way where they become interesting or even have a meaning. It annoys me that something so easy to paint is famous and/or worth alot of money, for the the amount of effort not put into it.
  4. Again find an image of the work. Mark Rothko, Untitled, circa 1950-2
