He is fun & his name is John Baldessari

John Baldessari is a conceptual artist who has influence many other great artists, such as: Cindy Sherman, David Salle, and Barbara Kruger among others.
His work consists of synthesizing photomontage, painting, and language into visual juxtapositions that challenge ‘conceptual art’ meaning with wit and irony.
He upends commonly held expectations of how images function, explores it in sometimes delightful, sometimes poignant and almost always surprising and inventive ways by injecting humor and dissonance into his vernacular imagery.

 

Marching Talent – Charlie Engman

A young talent I found in my infinite search of talent and inspiration: Charlie Engman; bringing to my eyes a “certain tone” to visual arts.
I love-it for it’s sarcasm and perspective.

No face Yi Hsin Tzeng

YI HSIN TZENG collects large amounts of international commercial images from her daily visual environment. The action of altering and appropriating not only establishes her regurgitated aesthetics but also proclaims a regained control of the image.
She see herself as a loyal painter, who looks for various media and approaches to fulfill her intention. Her current work mainly investigates the shape and the color of human desire by the approach of combining found images or objects with the playful mark-making. This body of work usually presents in the form of organic liquid, which she name “Flows.” “Flows” not only represent the invisible relationship between figures, but also projects her grotesque fantasies or cynical comments towards the use and iconography of images. Under this colorful sugar-coated appearance, she tries to establish a regurgitated aesthetic, an ambiguous paradise—seductive, disturbing, sweet and humorous at the same time.
