Art I Like: Andy Goldsworthy




Andy Goldsworthy is a Scottish environment artist. These partially submerged pieces are great. They look like drawings. I only stumbled upon the second piece now, while I was looking for an image of the first, it's perfect. Reminds me of the drawing I just did that I showed in the previous post.

Art I Like: Crystal Brass Knuckles

Debra Baxter, Crystal Brass Knuckles ( I am going to realign your chakra motherf*****) 2009

This piece is many thing; fabricated sculpture, conceptual art and jewelery craft. (And they say art has no use!) But the best aspect of this piece by Debra Baxter is the name. At the moment crystals are big in art, really big, getting bigger. I like that this is a great big crystal that pokes fun at itself with its title; I am going to realign your chakra motherf******. I like jokes in art and I like art that references art, though I can't say if this was the artist's intention.
