Thinking back along the line and progression of this body of work, Rog, the word that comes most readily to mind is "subversive". Looking at it as a body of work we become increasingly certain that these tableaus contradict, even reverse, the expected order of things. Their inherent mystery even seems a bit dangerous - this is true in small part with each one individually, but gains strength when the whole (expanding) body is considered. It is curiously self-referential - especially those that include that "no go" barrier - in that it is difficult to access. Your thought processes in evolving these works have been well communicated so we are left looking for the visual clues, even if some of the cultural clues are beyond our scope of understanding (not your fault at all I hasten to add). An astounding body of work, though, and one that continues to be thought-provoking, perhaps (for me at least) a little unintelligible, but well worth thinking about and appreciating what unravels the more we (I) do so. If this body of work graced the walls of a gallery, the effect would be mesmerizing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this body of work graced the walls of a gallery, the effect would be mesmerizing. I certainly do appreciate your critical assessment of my work with Club Unintelligible. This is the price of a tight rope dance that wavers between the textual and the visual blurred by a color wheel. When Rauschenberg erased DeKooning's drawing, he was doing what artists do if they are really working at it: making art out of erasing their antecedents, though the palimpsest, the layering, of other's work betrays the historical signature of other artists. I am indebted to you for pointing out the work of so many other photographers, each with a unique vision. You are so generous with your time, expertise, and support. I thank you. I thank you for your inspiring photography, reappraising the seemingly pedestrian with the eye of inventiveness, seeing what Antonioni might suggest is the pregnant moment as yet unborn.

It seems to me to be about an ageing couple - watching evening become night. Allegory. Of course it could be about 1,000,000 other things but this is what my has clicked into my mind - like a roulette ball randomly slotting into red 15. That's a million dollar win right there! You've brought up a salient point about what it is artists do. None of it exists in a vacuum, and none of it exists without the artist referencing other work. Of course this may be subliminal. Subliminal - how does this tie in with the sublime? See what mental gymnastics you've caused! There I go tripping over the vaulting horse or falling off the roman rings again! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stray cat Posted January 31, 2020 Share #237 Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Thanks to Rog's excellent suggestion I've been reading a wonderful book called Blow-Up: Antonioni's Classic Film and Photography. In it, various authors dissect the artistic and historical significance of Antonioni's great film, especially regarding its use of photography as plot device, metaphor and symbol. It is fascinating reading and got me thinking about the small parts that are often lost in the bigger picture. I took this photo many years ago in Venice, and have always thought that the couple pictured - blown up - might have been embroiled in their own drama. What demons are her gaze directed towards as she so securely grasps him? Will he lead them to safety or will a loud gunshot scatter those pigeons? The blow up occupies less than 1% of the FP4 frame and, from memory, I was using an amateur-grade zoom lens. I wish I had another photograph of whatever was going on to the left of picture here!

Blow Up 1986 Astounding, dramatic construction, just now reborn. The Antonioni aha moment. Brilliant, creative idea that opens a whole morgue of possibilities, material filed away, years ago, now revisioned with a new re-purposed perspective. Greenlight! “. . . embroiled in their own drama. What demons are her gaze directed towards as she so securely grasps him? Will he lead them to safety or will a loud gunshot scatter those pigeons?” When you are good, you are really good! And this is good!
