About Tal R and His Art

<h1>About Tal R and His Art</h1>Author: <a title="InventaTechnologies" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/inventatechnologies/18163.htm">InventaTechnologies</a> Tal R's paintings are derived from his everyday life; imaginary scenes suggest awkward and puerile narratives of suburban fairytale. Inspired by music, comics, TV and nostalgic video game graphics, more than Picasso, Matisse, and Albers, Tal R appropriates painting for his own means. Personalising tradition, his work acts as a celebration of making, creativity, and 'hands on' ingenuity. A return to art for art's sake, his paintings revive the long-dead values of autonomy and expression.

Tal R's paintings have a hippy-trippy feel about them, a crafty flash-back to the 60's. Wilfully child-like, his work is infused with a bygone esteem of innocence, often incongruous with the sophistication of his adult subject matter. Permeated with dark undertones, Tal R's home-brew designs and clumsy ham-fisted depictions evoke a sense of lost beguilement.

Striving to recapture a validity of play, Tal R creates a world absorbed in adolescent confusion: occultish drawings of graveyards, paintings of sexless block-headed figures, and giant magic mushrooms are portrayed with convincing chastity. Remixing socialist aesthetic with consumer culture ethic, his large collages burst with hundreds of tiny clipped figures and consumer ephemera. From nazi soldiers to gay porn stars, cartoon animals and chintz furniture: his primitive totems are monuments to catalogue cut-out homology.

Guardian Angel Tattoos – Choosing Artwork That Really Means Something

By: Adam Woodham | 01/12/2009
You do not want to screw around with bland Guardian Angel tattoos. In the long term, more than 99% of males and females who put a generic tattoo somewhere on their skin end up fully regretting it. I'm not saying that statement to make you rethink your plan of putting any Guardian Angel tattoos on yourself, though, because there are batches of fully original, detailed designs out there and I know how everyone can quickly find them.

Johannes Wohnseifer Paintings and Exhibitions at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 08/09/2007 | Art
Johannes Wohnseifer presents the fictitious elements of an attempted assassination. Based on the story of the man who tried to kill president Ronald Reagan - John Hinckley – it presents him as pleading 'not guilty' based on the fact that he saw the movie 'Taxi Driver' by Martin Scorsese so many times that it was an 'Irresistible Impulse' for him to try to kill the president of the United States.

Martina Steckholzer Paintings and Exhibitions at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 08/09/2007 | Art
Martina Steckholzer’s paintings offer a poetic ambience suggesting an infinite nothingness of space. Working from video footage filmed in art galleries, air fairs, studios, and museums, she isolates frames that capture the in-between spaces, unusual angles, and overlooked vantages of familiar generic places.

Thomas Scheibitz a German Artist at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 30/08/2007 | Art
Thomas Scheibitz's vast canvases can be an unsettling experience: the brightly colored surfaces of his paintings manage simultaneously to convey unbridled energy and leave one inexplicably cold. It is precisely this paradox that enables the German artist to so successfully evoke the malaise of contemporary culture.

Marlene Dumas a German Artist at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 30/08/2007 | Art
Marlene Dumas presents a corruption of innocence. Her portrayal of a young child with its clothes lifted over its head immediately gives way to dark thoughts of sexuality and exploitation. The controversy isn't in the images Marlene Dumas paints, but in the way they're subverted by an implied knowingness, a blatant confrontation with a natural reality and its discomforts.Marlene Dumas makes paintings with no concept of the taboo.

Luc Tuymans a German Artist at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 30/08/2007 | Art
Luc Tuymans's paintings delve into the inner workings of how mythology is created. The reality of Luc Tuymans's work is almost 'twee', pleasing images of a lampshade or leopard-skin rug pass quite comfortably as aesthetic totems; it's only their cognitive association with the Holocaust, or atrocities of the Belgian Congo, that encapsulates the true banality of evil - the unspeakable horror in a teacup, the monstrous potential of an empty bath.

Johannes Wohnseifer a German Artist at the Saatchi Gallery

By: InventaTechnologies | 30/08/2007 | Art
Johannes Wohnseifer’s paintings hijack ready-made cultural signifiers and reassemble them as invented logos. Both comically absurd and ideologically threatening, his paintings infuse the frivolity of advertising with an underlying propaganda and cultural hierarchy.
