Artist Research
This is my artist presentation. I chose Robert Smithson to research and learn more about. I thought his work was really interesting because it was different and dignified so you can tell that it is his. I really liked his famous Jelly Swirl. I thought it was really cool that he organized these pieces of land before he photographed them. You can tell from the photos how much time it requires to photograph amazing things like that. Overall, I think that Robert Smithson had great artwork because he used nontraditional materials. All the concepts that he used made his artwork his own were really cool. |
