Bill Viola video review

Viola is arguably the most famous videographer in the world. He is the inventor of video art. There is a poetry to his work, and he delves into many different types of videos. His videos are visually invigorating, and the viewer is taken on a journey through his exhibitions. Viola is an artist to admire, because he pioneered much of what videography is today. He presents the human condition so profoundly that everyone who views his work must react to it.

Joan Jonas video review

Jonas plays up her use of body movements and sound in her videos. She translates her thoughts thoroughly in these videos and she uses her work to communicate her thoughts and emotions. She often uses the space itself to convey these feelings, like in her video Wind. On the windiest day of the year, Jonas used the weather to create emotion in her works. She often uses multiple artists as well to make a collaborative effort on her work. Overall, I respond well to these videos, and I respect Jonas as a creator using the medium of film to convey herself.

Diary Entries 2

Dear Diary, Today marks my first solo art exhibition. My show, debuted in Philadelphia, has attracted numerous young artists to my works. Additionally, so many students from Tyler decided to come and see alumni art, which I sincerely appreciated. I had about 20 pieces, using acrylic, charcoal, and printmaking, and a lot of talented art collectors came. I am monumentally thankful that I am able to showcase my works in the city that granted me so much.
