Michelangelo Pistoletto. Through the fence, him and her.
2008. Silkscreen print on mirror.
Michelangelo Pistoletto is an Italian painter. His work is
considered to be pop art. I choose his mirror paintings as a final project
because I think they are interesting. Pistoletto used photographic collages,
silkscreen printing and tissue paper paintings to impose a realistic image onto
stainless steal. Most of his mirror paintings are life size. They all allow the
audience to become interactive in the work. I think they are interesting
because of they interact with the viewer. No two viewers view the same image
because their own reflection is incorporated into the art piece. The
environment in which the mirror paintings are placed are also significant and
may change how the viewer interprets the piece.
