Work that I like:
Edward Ruscha
Be Careful... You Hear Me? (Country Cityscapes series)
2001
I like this work because of the simplicity of it. The combination of landscape photography and the cut out rectangles and squares compliments the work and adds a graphic aspect to it. The titles of the works are not visible in the image and are blanked out. The idea of hiding the titles, which are aggressive cowboy catch-phrases from the Western movie suggests how cultural stereotypes affect the way we see the North American landscape.
Work I do not like:​​​​​​​
Paul Neagu
36 Possibilities Realised Simultaneously
1973–4
I am not a fan of this work because I don't think its visually attractive. The use of dull, earth colours like brown doesn't make it stand out in my opinion.
Work that challenges me:​​​​​​​
Malangatana Ngwenya
Untitled
1967
This particular work challenges me because from the first glance of viewing this work, it looks like a fun and quirky artwork but the painting actually depicts the violence and suffering endured by ordinary people in Mozambique during the War of Independence from Portugal. The way the figures overlap and merge into one another removes any sens of perspective which challenges the viewers.
