Andy Warhol was one of the first pop artists and post-modernist. He started as a commercial artist and it comes through in his later work, with his mass production of screen prints. His mimicking and repetition of his art is aimed at the mass media and our views on consumerism.

The Grid - Loose and Tight
Loose Grid - The pictures are spread but still adhere to each others positions.
Tight Grid- very uniformed even though chopped in different pieces.

Gestalt Principle - Proximity

These objects have nothing to do with each other in their original context. There's a lai , two tin cans, some gloves, and my feet.
When placed in close to each other you see a face...just one example of the gestalt theory.

Andy Goldsworthy Public Art

"Stone River"
I can some what visualize the concept, but some how I can not get past the fact that it looks like an undulating serpent. I just amazed at the arrangement of the stones, especially the top stones...they seem to defy gravity. This image may be the beginning of the vanishing of my phobia of snakes.......uh.....not really....lol. However, other than snakes, it reminds me of a mini wall of china, so should it be called "The Chinette Wall"......who knows? (^_^) Great Piece of art overall though!
