RIP Mark Fisher (mural by his students @ Goldsmith’s London)
[The Quietus] :Remembering Mark Fisher By David Stubbs
COMIX #6
Hi UK friends! I need some help!
I'm studying abroad in the fall and am between two schools! I've been doing research but I'd like to know the "stigmas" (for lack of a better word) and reputations about the schools I'm looking at because it's kind of hard for me to be able to get the real deal without being able to tour!
I'm looking at Goldsmith's College and Queen Mary! Any help would be...helpful.
(Or if you think I should take a peek at any other schools that would be welcome as well! I'm looking for communications and media studies areas of study)
Julian Opie
Julian Opie, modern artist born in 1958 in London. His work is one of the most recognized in pop-art world, and because he's been highly known for over 3 decades Opie's been an inspiration for many, many young artists. Julian is a member of New Sculpture movement who focuses on fully changing the real picture into an animated artistic image by simplifying it. The process of creating an image in Julian Opie style consists of using an digital image which afterwards you animate preferably in Adobe Illustrator by using only bold colours, black thick outlines and very simple detailing like just black dots in the eyes no eyelashes,etc. And such features as nose are also being brought down to the very little dots. This artist's work stretches beyond his prints, he's the author of many public installations around the world, eg. Promenade. (2012), Calgary, Canada. Work of Julian Opie have been exhibited by many prestigious museums and galleries based in UK as well as all around the world like National Portrait Gallery, London; Sakshi Gallery, Mumbai; Lisson Gallery, Milan; Shanghai Expo, China and much more. Personally I'd consider Julian Opie as a modern creation of tried art world. I don't see the art in his work (and believe me here, I'm trying REALLY hard), but because there's no particular definition of art so technically even fitting the carpet could be art. I do appreciate his skills of using photoshop and adobe illustrator, however his work doesn't apply into my idea of art.
