Reading & Responding - Part X, In the darkness

Having spent time looking at how I could incorporate perspective changes to images this last week, a discussion with Christian and Bob lead me to review the works of Geovanni Batista Pironesi and his son, Francesco.  Also in the research discussion, the name of Gunter Grass  and his work Tin Drum should be looked into.  I will spend some time in the Library to re-consider these names.   Christian had also previously mentioned Blek Le-Rat as an artist to consider, he had been one of the first professional artists to be recognised for his contribution to Stencil Art and Graphitti, in Paris.  I subsequently watched the film documentary of his work "Blek Le Rat", which also gave me the name of Gerard Zlotykamion, as the first contemporary Graphiti Artist, who's first work appeared in Paris in 1963.  An interesting factoid!...
