Min Jeong Seo - To Live On, 2005

The stalks these flowers are already dried up but their blossoms are preserved and kept fresh by the medical infusion bags. The life-span of every living creature is limited.The infusion bags stand for the progress in medicine and the prolongation of human life.They somehow carry an ambivalent message as they refer to both death and life an the same time. Both states are immanent here. To preserve the beauty of the flowers artificially with the help of the infusion bags points out man’s inclination to repress the fact having to die and to postpone death.

Greg Dunn, having a Ph.D in neuroscience, was inspired to do this artwork by seeing neurons treated with certain stains. The neurons he saw in his microscope reminded him of the Asian art he loved so much already and went on to paint neurons in the Asian sumi-e style.

benbizzatkendim: Grant Wood’un 1930 yılında tamamlamış olduğu aşırı sevimli tablosu American Gothic’in önünde hatıra fotoğrafı çektirenler ressamın tabloda kullandığı modeller. Yani kızkardeşi Nan Wood Graham ve dişçisi Byron McKeeby. Şimdiye kadar en çok parodisi yapılan tablolardan biri bu ayırca. Bazı örneklerine buradan ve şuradan bakabilirsiniz.

or he just was into flowers by the end.
