Intro to Visual Practice / Fall 2010

One of the works that I enjoyed most in the Records exhibit at the Nasher was Christian Marclay’s series of large, illustrated records.  I liked the concept that it is possible to turn almost anything into art.  In addition, I am really interested in the concept of pop-art.  While the individual records may not fall under the pop-art umbrella, Marclay utilizes colors common in pop-art and in my opinion, the collection and displays of the CDs in their linear formation constitutes as pop-art.
