Journal 47: More Art

Banksy
Ai Wei Wei
these are just two of the choices i have
Ai Wei Wei's human representation through gestures at Tian An Men is one of the artwork that have influenced me greatly. His simple representation and straightout opposition is what i strife for in my art works. I strife to be a revolutionary artist that is unafraid to attack cherished beliefs or authorities that are above and higher than me. I want to make a point with art and not just some pretty picture to hang in the house. Ai Wei Wei's art forms shocked the government authorities in the world and his art forms are simple and quick representaitons of his revoltutionary ideas.

As for Banksy, his art form are even simpler with words and simple illustrations sprayed across the globe. peace and government opposition or orthodox beliefs is what he always attack. His graffiti representations are exactly what i admire. With his artworks sprayed instead of painted, it reiniforces the rebellious idea and concept behind his stencils. Such as the work have a nice day or the man throwing a flower. Its a simple stencil but the idea behind it could promote peace simple and easy with its special materials.
