Digital Art And Globalization.

This will be undertaken with attention to both the action (or physicality) of play with art, referred as the mode of participation, and the aesthetic and communicative nature of the artworks themselves. The artworks selected for discussion function variously, they: invite playful engagement from and indeed play the participant/s; reflect upon the nature of participation by establishing situations of intercorporeality and intersubjectivity; question and challenge issues within the contemporary socio-political terrain, as well as incite wonder and defy expectations of participation with digital media. Particular modes of participation are established by these artworks, which position them in distinction to traditional media works, a tension within which play acts as a reconciling element. Play is both a cultural and counter-cultural force becoming all the more significant and pervasive throughdigital media and here it will be interrogated in terms of its relationship to art and digital media with specific attention to the player and the nuances of participation. The uniqueness of this endeavour lies in fostering an approach to play from an art-historical perspective and drawing media and games theory into a closer conversation with art. This will establish a stronger perspective from which to approach burgeoning artistic practices that create, work through, explore and deconstruct new digital media.

A Couple of Differences Between Thinking and Feeling II, 2003, by Angus Fairhurst.

Angus Fairhurst.

Angus Fairhurst was born in Pembury, Kent. Having attended The Judd School between 1978 and 1985, he studied at Canterbury Art College 1985–1986, and graduated in 1989 in Fine Art at Goldsmiths College, where he was in the same year as Damien Hirst. In February 1988, Fairhurst organised a show of student work, which was a precursor to the Freeze show largely organised by Hirst in July 1988 with sixteen other students from Goldsmith, including Fairhurst. Fairhurst and Hirst became close friends and collaborated on many projects. Fairhurst was also for several years the partner and sometime-collaborator of Sarah Lucas.

Fairhurst's work was often characterised by visual distortion and practical jokes. An example is his drawing of a gorilla holding a fish under its oxter and both staring at a plate of chips.

He worked in different media, including video, photography and painting, and is noted for sculptures of gorillas.

Young British Artists.

The Young British Artists, or YBAs - also referred to as Brit artists and Britart which is the name given to a loose group of visual artists who first began to exhibit together in London, in 1988. Many of the artists graduated from the BA Fine Art course at Goldsmiths, in the late 1980′s. They became known for their openness to materials and processes, shock tactics and entrepreneurial attitude.

In the late 1980′s British art entered what was quickly recognised as a new and excitingly distinctive phase, the era of what became known as the YBAs – the Young British Artists. Young British Art can be seen to have a convenient starting point in the exhibition Freeze organised in 1988 by Damien Hirst (the most celebrated, or notorious, of the YBAs) while he was still a student at Goldsmiths College of Art. Freeze included the work of fellow Goldsmiths students, many of whom also became leading artists associated with the YBAs, such as Sarah Lucas, Angus Fairhurst and Michael Landy.

Goldsmiths College of Art played an important role in the development of the movement. It had for some years been fostering new forms of creativity through its courses which abolished the traditional separation of media into painting, sculpture, printmaking etc. Michael Craig-Martin was among its most influential teachers.

Post Modernism.

Postmodern architecture began as an international style the first examples of which are generally cited as being from the 1950′s, but did not become a movement until the late 1970′s and continues to influence present-day architecture. Postmodernity in architecture is said to be heralded by the return of "wit, ornament and reference" to architecture in response to the formalism of theInternational Style of modernism. As with many cultural movements, some of Postmodernism's most pronounced and visible ideas can be seen in architecture. The functional and formalized shapes and spaces of the modernist style are replaced by diverseaesthetics: styles collide, form is adopted for its own sake, and new ways of viewing familiar styles and space abound. Perhaps most obviously, architects rediscovered past architectural ornament and forms which had been abstracted by the Modernist architects.

Influential early large-scale examples of postmodern architecture are Michael Graves' Portland Building in Portland, Oregon and Philip Johnson's Sony Building (originally AT&T Building) in New York City, which borrows elements and references from the past and reintroduces color and symbolism to architecture.

Andy Warhol (Campbell Soup.)

Pop art is now most associated with the work of New York artists of the early 1960s such asAndy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, and Claes Oldenburg, but artists who drew on popular imagery were part of an international phenomenon in various cities from the mid-1950s onwards. Following the popularity of the Abstract Expressionists, Pop's reintroduction of identifiable imagery (drawn from mass media and popular culture) was a major shift for the direction of modernism. The subject matter became far from traditional "high art" themes of morality, mythology, and classic history; rather, Pop artists celebrated commonplace objects and people of everyday life, in this way seeking to elevate popular culture to the level of fine art. Perhaps owing to the incorporation of commercial images, Pop art has become one of the most recognizable styles of modern art.
