Jean Michel Basquiat
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Like any other international symbol, art strips away the barriers inherent to cultural segregation. Indeed, society's inhabitants are hard pressed to interact with one another based solely upon verbal exchange; however, when art is brought into the mix, that cultural barrier is soon removed. It can readily be argued that Jean Michel Basquiat's art was one of very few entities that possessed a universal appeal, no matter what culture it addressed. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

John Pawson: The Comfort of Exactness
[ send me this paper ]
(25pp) Is it any wonder that the artist/
architect, who according to legend, claims that
"there are fifty shades of white," would speak of
his own work in crystalline form? The crystal
itself, in all its own unique purity could well be
a metaphor for Paxon's efforts in this field.
Throughout this discussion we will look for those
thing, which influenced the creativity of both his
lifestyle, and his work. Simplicity brings with
it a certain monumentality. It accommodates the
fundamental essence of architecture, compression
and release, enclosure and transparency. Pawson's
architecture appears unforced, and effortless -
the one who is unaware will think - I could have
done that, or I could have put those materials
together. But we smile to ourselves for we know
that, he-our questioner of these simple but elegant
materials didn't do the work. For the real
appreciation of Pawson is the understanding that
simplicity is not easily achieved.
Bibliography lists 20 sources.
