A pretentious title for my art history project I just finished tonight. Basically we are charged with the task of "responding" to our last 8 months of Art History lectures with a 5 minute presentation. I suggested my group do a collection of post-modern pieces and through a random process we decided to do a piece titled "Five Butterflies" Each member of the group is going to create a piece that has something to do with butterflies (we are free to abstract the concept completely if desired) and we're going to present them along with my presentation about post-modernism and the development of post-modern art. I very much encouraged ridiculousness in the projects.
Now I've seen a lot of post-modern art and thought "Hey, I'll just come up with a twisted, ridiculous idea and do it, piece of cake!" Well I now have new found respect for these kind of artists. Imagining and creating quality ridiculous ideas is a lot harder than I once thought.
I submit my piece for review ;)
I call it "Butterfly Superlative"
To justify a photograph of me snorting butterflies, I'm gonna say something about how post-modern art challenges social norms in order to invoke a unique response in the viewer blah blah blah... Maybe... Or perhaps I'll offer no explanation as is often typical of post-modern pieces...
I guess we'll see...
Hope you enjoyed it =D
