Early in his career, both before and after fighting in the Franco-Prussian War, Redon worked almost exclusively in charcoal and lithography, works known as his noirs. He gained recognition after his drawings were mentioned in the 1884 novel À rebours by Joris-Karl Huysmans" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjglTh84eX8 like how some titles are long.. poetic. eg: "And I Saw an Angel Come Down from Heaven, Having the Key of the Bottomless Pit and a Great Chain in His Hand" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdf09ggudoI https://artsandculture.google.com/search?q=odilon+redon

 Abstract Expressionsim - lack of money & feelings of rejection from American Society & Art Establishment led to artist to turn to other artists  Despite these informal groups, the artists were never quite comfortable with the idea of community  threatened individual indentity (v american) 'The Intrasubjectives' - essay by Rosenberg - create from an internal world rather than an external one - wide range of intellectual references influenced the way thought about self: Existentialism, anti communist anarchism, n the american traditions of transcendentalism n self reliance. Lots of different values/intentions, - the painting as a new object (kinda similar to sculptures?) 'we might argue that these artists were not expressing themselves, but trying to figure out how to make an artwork that was not a version of any pre-existing object' Not having a 'finished' painting. The painting is just the beginning, if successful enough goes on to become something else...

ACTION ART: Have a book on abstract expressionism so decided to use that as primary research. seem to not be about filming them. less about the performance and movement of it. They say its not about the painting but the process, but the paintings tend to be the only proof/evidence of the process. Conclusion: in my opiniion, Action art is still about the 'final' product of the painting.. even tho they say it isnt.  thoughts on action art - not about throwing self about, now think about it i think theres a lot of misunderstanding of action art?? franz kline doesnt paint like a maniac lmao.

The first thing I decided I needed to do after reading the brief was research. I knew I wanted to do something around minority rights or maybe poverty, leaning more towards the former. The first thing I wanted to research was protest/minority photographers to help me get an image of what shots i wanted to capture in what style, as well as this I wanted to think about what kind of perspective I wanted to capture. I wanted to concentrate on the lgbt community so began googling things like 'protest photographers' 'minority photographers' 'political photographers' 'candid photographers', etc. something i had been thinking a lot about is when people say 'you dont look gay/trans/etc', because does 'gay' or 'trans' look like? i think a lot of people arent used to, more so trans people, seeing these things in real life and only as on screen with the characters that are constructed are very caricature ish cishet normative way, and not p...
