This was a very hard reading that we had with Graham as it there were some words and phrases that I didn't understand.
The reading was talking about grids, but as the reading went on I realized that the grid referred to abstractism. This also presented an element of poetry.
Further down in the reading Rosland Krauss mentioned about 'Art's Silence', here we discussed other arts that had a silence in their work, one being the '4 minute of blackness with a light flashing on and off'.
The thing that interested me the most was when it was said that abstractism is a method not art!
Graham did a short PowerPoint at the end of the reading and provided us with some artists that related to it:
Artists
- Alfred Jenson
- Frank Stella
- Louise Nevelson
- Dan Hayes
- Sol Lewitt
Nihilism - Belief of nothing
