FILM 21: Banksy


Do you view Banksy's artwork as vandalism? Why or why not? Where is the line drawn between the two?

FILM 20: Haring


Do you find Haring's work more or less moving with it being SO simplistic?

FILM 19: Basquiat

Do you find Basquiat's work to be disturbing at times? I admit that I did. Why do think that?

FILM 18: COLLINGS/NOTHING

What is it about minimalism that you think made it an entire movement? What elements does it strip away from general art rules?

FILM 17: LICHTENSTEIN/ BRAGG

Do you think that this comic book type of art has a real meaning or purpose behind it? Its simple, yet powerful. In what ways do you see that at work?

FILM 16: Warhol/PBS






Although the pictures Warhol completed of Elizabeth Taylor were not some of his most famous, she is my favorite actress of all time so I wanted to focus on this painting. Do you think that his paintings ever became redundant, even with them being different subjects? Why or why not?
