THE TRANSPARENCY OF ART

Ronit Judelman is the artist behind GUNS (2009).Her transparent conceptual works are informed by the insights she acquired in her life experience and the years of practice as a clinical and educational psychologist.

Judelman says this about …”Guns - Sculpture, resin and found objects, 15x79x60cm.   No human hands pull the trigger. The gun/mob appears to take on a life of its own. Guns induces a sense of sadness and helplessness. Limp, wasted, lifeless miniature people suggest the impotence of war. The work impacts by using visual ambiguity. The multitude of colours implies playfulness, only to induce, on closer scrutiny, confusion and doubt.”

What would you do to improve on the Mona Lisa? Our friends at Booooooom!, the Vancouver-based art blog, are asking photographers to flex their creative muscles by remaking classic works of art. The results from the Remake project—modernizing paintings by Rembrandt, Ingres, van Gogh, Lichtenstein (pictured above), and others—are fabulously clever. See more …
