dvd: the world of gilbert & george
a brit performance art-ish dvd i got from netfix.
do not think it applied to what i am doing now.
qualities of note (for me) was the:
use of sound & juxtaposition of image and dialog was clever & key to this work & effectively used.
lots of things intrigued me>>> camera angle, editing, content, emotion. since this was an abstract work dealing with tangible/everyday/common man stuff, i find it difficult to define here. think it came from & targeted the male 20-something age group. i looked to netfliks to see what they wrote up about it & see they faced the same dilemma :) some of the sections recited poetry coupled with images that offered a non-mainstream or twisted view to portray the poem's content. there is a humor/mockery that runs through much of this collection. some if it sticks with you later to mull over & increase one's appreciation of the work.
how i will use this: awareness of art being created now in faraway places that will make me more useful during critique or during art discussions/presentations that dwel l in this genre.
